the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzread.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

I mean yeah, buuuuuuut I just noticed for the first time that the wood is wet around the dovetail. The nice chip he gets is only because the wood is soft and wet. You can tell by the color, and the fit (it doesnt dry out and shrink) that it's not soaked. I wish he'd come out and show wetting it to get that chip, though.

Bit of short narration is nice. Gives you a little bit of added info and context.

I find the horizontal "filleting" of the wood most satisfying.

@Buddy Austin - Agreed! Razor sharp!

Lightly tapping the edges with a hammer before fitting the two pieces together is a great idea. The fibers should bounce back a bit making the joint even tighter. Never thought of that. Very cool

That is a very traditional Japanese joinery method. I’ve seen videos where the wet the wood first. This allows more compression and an even tighter joint.

Your work is absolutely amazing just unbelievable stuff I never seen anything like it I wish my father-in-law was still alive to see some of this stuff unbelievable

There is just something strangely calming and therapeutic about watching you just shave the wood like you do.

This level of craftsmanship is like watching a fire burn. It’s mesmerizing. Beautiful work.

The slight compression with the hammer at the end, how it will aid the fit and swell back to tighten the joint is genius. I know wood behaves like that, but what a fantastic way to utilize that principle.

@dylaniwakuni

Yes, it's a very convenient little technique. It's commonly used when making joinery or when attaching a part which needs to be tight.

Such a joy to watch a true craftsman at work, and so calming in these stressful and odd times. Interesting aside - in his spare time this man relaxes by doing micro neurosurgery ...

I've watched a lot of joinery videos. I have NEVER seen someone just peel away the end grain like that. that is incredible!

A tip for those who don’t know: aside from having VERY sharp chisels, the way he performs those beautiful end grain slicing cuts is by moistening the wood to soften it. Use the water sparingly so the wood won’t swell excessively.

Thank you so much for showing this. It is fascinating the small differences between Japanese joinery and "western" joinery. In every example I have ever seen of western joinery, the faces of the cuts are always cleaned up by paring in from the end grain. paring across the grain is a revelation. It is these little differences that I find most interesting.

The sound of the chisel cutting the wood. AWESOME

Seems like this is almost a kind of therapy because of how mindful you need to be of what you're doing. No room for mistakes

The shaving sounds are so soothing.

There are numerous different types of Japanese joinery techniques and they are all satisfying to watch...thx for sharing.

Japanese joinery blows my mind. I'm new to woodworking and have just finished my first bow tie inlay project all with hand tool, hey you gotta start somewhere. 😄

Not that difficult with good water stones or ceramic stones, you just need to go to a minimum of 6000 grit (12,000 to 16,000 is nice) . The type of wood used is highly relevant to this type of joinery. Excellent skills help. Fun to watch.

The level of precision that this takes is amazing

A sharp chisel is all I dream of right now. When I see it cut wood like you cut a slice of butter, I get chills.

Absolutely a transition from Basic to Craftsman 👍

What a satisfying sound a super-sharp paring chisel makes.

I learned more about sharpness, pairing, and joinery from this video than I did from dozens of instructional vids.

Merci ! Quel plaisir !

Wow. I have never seen a chisel used like that. Extraordinary. A very satisfying video to watch. 🙏

Impressively good fit, thanks for sharing !

Amazing work-the "snick" of the chisel as you begin to trim the joint is one of the most satisfying sounds in woodworking. There's sharp, razor sharp, and snick-sharp! The small bit of flawless joinery simply demonstrates proper technique in an understated way. From the "snick-sharp" chisels, to guide blocks, to patient small lead cuts, to the "hammer-chamfer" there is so much content in these six minutes. Thank you!

Hi Dylan, I would love to see a video on the art of laying out the joint

Ohhhh cool Damascus big chisel!

Oddly satisfying and that dovetail will probably be stronger than any haunched mortise and tenon joint.

Just noticed concerning no music. True, the sound of him working is much better
