Very nice how you use the simple wedge design to make a tool that looks more capable that Western scribing gauge.
I am very interested in china woodworking and you are a rare person that I can find on TH-cam.
Very few people do Chinese woodworking on youtube. The projects I do won't be strictly Chinese, but the tools should mostly be Chinese.
You're the only TH-camr I have never ever skipped a single second of any of your videos. Nice work as usual.
Thanks Andrew.
very neat and precise , I am impressed with this unique Chinese craftsmanship .Glad to see you sharing art of tool making thanks .
Alway enjoyable watching a craftsman at his trade, looking forward to your next tool.
Thanks MM. No forge Japanese plane hammer is planned for before Thanks Giving.
Well done thanks
That tool is identical to the Japanese tools called a Wari Kebiki. Very cool that the two cultures share so much. Alot of (almost all of) traditional Japanese woodworking came from China. Cool to see the little links between them in things like this
As a casual observation, and painting w/ a giant brush, Japan as a country seem to not invent anything, but perfect (or pervert) a lot of inventions from other people. The Japanese version of this cutting gauge tool, that I have seen, has the side above the blade closed in, accommodating a much shorter blade. I think the open side for the Chinese version gives the blade increased stability and control. I hypothesize this design difference is indicative of the average hardness of wood that the Chinese and Japanese woodworkers had used.

@@johnzzhu good observation between Japanese and Chinese mindsets. As a Chinese, I must say that we move on faster than Japanese. They tend to stick to a design they know and squeeze everything out of that one concept.
Very much enjoyed the vid, Thanks!.....So glad to have you back!
You're very welcome, glad to be back.
I really enjoy your friend's videos. thanks for the variety
You're very welcome.
Davvero molto, molto bello! Complimenti
The channel you linked has so many gems in it. I just watched a video where he demonstrated a very clever design of a bow drill and quickly making very effective custom bits for it.
Yes, the master 辛全生 is very skilled, it a channel of treasure troves, the link to his youtube page in on my channel home page.
John: Excellent last minute footage of the finished tool...Great shape and great to have recess and overhang. Good links.
Thank you JH.
John, I give you a traditional bow as acclimation of your excellent and precise work on the project! Very nice work! Good to see you again also.
Thanks Mac. It has been a while, but you know how life happens (literally). I am going to make more of an effort on making more consistent uploads.
John Zhu Congratulations on the “life” happening in your family!
Family and Life FIRST, then if there is time maybe a project to share now and then.
Very good! Thanks John.
Thanks RB.
Thank you for the great series
Very good John! I like it! Thanks.
Thanks RB. YW.
视频里提到的Chinese master不会是辛全生老先生吧？
能看到有你这样的师傅把我们的木工技艺在世界传播真是高兴啊！
是幸师傅， 他有可能说中国木工和洋人木工差不多。
Great project John, looking forward to seeing this gauge in future videos
Thanks 3P, me too.
mine didn't come out as well as yours but it works and I'll do better next time!
Nice Video John and a great project. Thanks!!
Thanks KA.
I just found this tool series. I'm really hoping the last video is a blooper real of all the mistakes that happened while filming 🤣 Seriously though, great job.
This was great. The only thing I would add would be to take a little bit more time with the actual working of the wood. This helps to understand a little more about your technique. However I really appreciated your video and subscribed to see more. Thank you once again. T
Thanks T. This Chinese tool is part of a series. And I plan to use them all the time in future videos. In fact, tomorrow I plan to release a video where I use this tool
John Zhu Thank you I’ll be watching.Terry
Great project John!
Thanks Chris. Very daring of you to take your camera onto a windy roof (for your shed build).
Nice looking gauge John, great to see you left in the blow out and your process of getting the blade mortise right! You could have edited those out, leaving these in give us wanna be's hope and stratergies for fixing our inevitable blunders!
Thanks Tony. It's important to show the mistakes and learn from.
Thanks for the channel link and an excellent, as always, video!
*edit/add*
Beautiful gauge! One could say that I was ALREADY subscribed to a Master on TH-cam! LOL
You're welcome. Lots to enjoy there, even more if you can understand Chinese.
Grate job, looks very useful with thin stock..
Thanks, that's one of its uses, but probably not the main one for me.
挺好的，很有收获，谢谢分享
不客气。
Great work, beautiful result and enjoyable video. Thumbs up :)
Thanks Stephan.
Excellent tool. One also can make useful cutters for these cutting and marking gauges with either masonry nails (thicker) or hacksaw / jigsaw blades (thinner).
Ok John just watched a random video from the masters channel and saw a different marking gage ( non western nor Japanese)used to mark dove tails. Language on his videos is a problem for me but a new tool project for me thanks for the link.
I think you're referring to the 4 pronged gauge. It is on my list of tools to make, but I don't necessary like how he made it nor the general design of it. I made one similar w/ 2 prongs, but it has a tendency to drift. So I am currently think and probably testing out different design changes, before making a final version.
@@johnzzhu
My main concern with the design is the spacing of the cutters. A piece of brass should keep the cutter from moving.
I can tell you that is not a problem. Make it tight and the hex keys do not move at all. He's got videos of him making it. This is the link (v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNTYyNzI3ODMy.html?spm=a2hzp.8253869.0.0)
the hole for blade should drill or forge at last as the size of blade.
thank you. nice....
I love your videos making the Chinese style tools. I also linking to the Chinese woodworking master! I watched many of his videos and love the traditional furniture he makes! I only wish I could remember my Mandarin because I really wanted to hear what he had to say about laying out and making three-way miter joints since I really want to replicate or create pieces inspired by the antique Chinese furniture pieces my parents got when we lived in China. I don't know how good your Mandarin is but when you are done making the Chinese style tools maybe you should make a video showing how to make the various joints that are used for making Chinese furniture based off the master's videos? Thank you for the Chinese tool series, I am looking forward the mortise gauge video!
Thanks PM. The master is actually not speaking Mandrain per se, it is a dialect that can be hard to understand if one is only accustom to mandrain used in news cast and spoken in Beijing. It is much like an English accent in London is different from that of Ireland. I am blessed to understand his accent fluently. So expanding the Chinese joinery techniques to the Western world is something that I plan to do. But first I need to semi-master the techniques myself.
@@johnzzhu Thank you for your response! A family friend of mine from China told me it sounded like a "Tianjing" accent. Is he right?I look forward to any future videos!
@@Thorkitty19 It's funny that your friend identified it as "Tianjing" accent. The master speaks the dialect of my hometown, the city of Tian-Jin (天津). In the Tian-Jin dialect, Jin(津) takes the sound of Jing; so...
Nice tool, but I sure would have liked to see it in action. Maybe in an upcoming project?
One video this week on how to cut cross grain sliding dovetails.
@@johnzzhu thanks. College has had me so busy that I am way behind on watching my favorite channels.
the blade is not absolutely straight smooth and plane, so the wood can hold it.
Very nice video and dialogue. What type of wood did you use? I re-watched but did not catch if you mentioned it. Thanks also for the useful links,
Thanks JF. The wood I used is white oak. Any kind of oak or equivalent would be fine.
These things are so simple but so necessary for a lot of work, so it's nice to see such an easy video on it. You know the technique for cutting thin boards with that, right? (Lemongrasspicker does it with his Japanese version of this in some of his videos if not.)
This series you're doing is really good and I'll honestly be a bit sad when it's over. What do you have planned after it? Have you considered doing a Chinese low work bench?
PS: You reminded me that the taper has to be small-end-up. I've been meaning to make one for a while and the other day I ground an edge on a hardened masonry nail's tip to use as a blade. I guess I need to redo it on another one's opposite end though, whoops. I can still use the one I did as a nicker iron or maybe make it into a miniature tool at least haha
I do know how to cut thin wood w/ it. There are actually lots more tools I could make beyond the 7; I just think w/ these 7 tools one could potentially do a lot of woodworking.
I am not aware of a "Chinese low work bench." there are distinct Chinese low sitting benches that function as sawing and chisel platforms. The actual work bench is just a bit shorter than your typical Western bench because the way the Chinese plane is designed.
Ah, I wasn't aware those were just normal sitting benches. I'd seen old illustrations, photos, and that one master use them for those tasks so I thought they were made a specific way for doing work. I'd also assumed the standing height work bench was a later addition. I'll have to dig more to see what's done special for the latter besides the dimensions, since every different western workbench style has their own quirks (roubo, nicholson, continental, and the old low types like the roman ones and loads more...)
How to use it?
