This right here. This is what separates professionals from hobbyists. You must be the most patient father ever.
Thank you. I consider myself patient, but I have my moments.
You never cease to amaze me, buddy. One minute you're making something the size of a large wall, and the next you making something as delicate as Kumiko.
Thank you very much.
Beside the fact you’re a phenomenal woodworker, you’re definitely one of the best narrators in the business too. Extremely easy to listen to and very articulate.
Keep up the great work, Mike.
Thank you. Thank is very kind to say, I'm happy to hear that my message is understandable.
Mike, a rare and well-deserved honor to grace the pages of Fine Woodworking. Like you, I've been a subscriber for many years, and credit the publishers for a steady improvement in my skills. Best wishes on the baby. Regards, Dave
Thank you very much Dave, hope you're doing well. I credit Fine Woodworking for much of my progress as a woodworker. For example, I would have never heard about kumiko were it not for Fine Woodworking.
The peak of a 4ft a frame ladder is an appropriate place of honour for any great work of literature
Totally, I normally keep my copies of the Iliad and the Odyssey on top of that very ladder.
Your honesty and sense of humor make every video highly enjoyable!
Thank you. Honesty is one of the core goals of each video I make, I'm happy to hear that shows through.
Having no idea doing what you do, but being a fan of Japanese art this very cool to watch.
Thank you.
That's fantastic being a feature in FWW! Next stop your own show on PBS. With your awesome detail of instruction and added humor it would be an excellent program.
Thank you. Thats very kind to say.
Really really appreciate that and I’ll learn into some comical with a Japanese master but those guys they do everything like old school but the way you did it completely really easy. We can make chemical in couple hours. Really appreciate it for you share that with us. Thank you.
Thank you.
Out of everyone on TH-cam, I look forward to your videos the most! I learn something new every time I watch them. You truly are inspirational and your content and deliver is second to none. Keep up the great work!
That is very kind to say. Thank you very much. I will have another video out soon.
That would make a fantastic airflow case
Thank you.
Several quick points;
A. Congrats on your soon-to-be new vice shop assistant
B. More congrats on getting published
C. Your skill is unreal. The patience required for those tiny pieces with intricate angles...
D. I’ve found myself listening to PF’s Animals album multiple times lately. Their best stuff!
Thank you very much. Animals is great, no question.
I am fascinated by these beautiful patterns but I am even more fascinated by your way of showing how to make them. Your calm way of explaining and the pictures you chose to show are captivating. Thank you for sharing this video!
Thank you for the kind words.
Paint a "portal mural" in your shop that I may roller skate into and find you working.
Amazing work as always Mike. Something about your music choice, commentary and 80s trivia adds to the quirky nature of your show!
I am making a run to sherwin williams in the morning for more ceiling paint. I will ask if they sell portal paint at that location or if I need to head over to their commercial coatings store for that. To describe my channel as quirky is, in my opinion a high compliment. Thank you.
Got this months FW issue and was so jazzed to see your article! Love your simple clean precise approach to woodworking. It’s all in the details. Can’t wait to see the nursery!
Congrats Mike.
Thank you very much. I am editing the nursery video as we speak.
I need a Kumiko panel like this made as a coffee table with legs and glass on top. Would be epic. Unfortunately carpenters in my country don't even come close to this level of craftmanship.
Thank you. That would make a nice coffee table.
@@MikeFarrington Hope i gave you an idea and you can make one for your house!
Congratulations on joining the ranks of Fine Woodworking authors. I
Thank you very much.
LOL you are a brave soul putting that piece through the sander. Not a pro tip but my tip, I use a piece of MDF with a thin fence for doing small pieces through my Jet 16-32. I do small cut out pieces for my wife's painting projects that have irregular shapes like pins and such. Makes her happy when she doesn't have to sand them by hand. The last project I did was a 12X18 tray (for lack of a better term) of heart pins about 3.4" in diameter. One might think the machine would spit them out but not so, at least not on my smaller drum sander. I keep a large and small tray near the sander. Now that I've seen your jig for the plane thicknesser I'll have to get one made for myself. I had to laugh on one video when you said you spend a lot of time feeding wood through the planer. I know that feeling. I have to ask since it's been a year. Did you find a buyer or do you have some new lamps in your house.
Thank you. The sander is pretty gentle on parts, so I had some concern but I wouldn't have done it had I thought it was a 50/50 shot. I ended up selling one of the lamps, and keeping the other. I have a few in the house that I have made over the years, I'm not sure what I want to do with them.
As soon as you said Pink Floyd, division bell popped into my head. By far one of my most favorite when it comes to the perfect background music to anything that requires cool attention to detail if that makes sense. Very nice project Mike and congratulations on the article and the new addition to the family.
Thank you very much Jeff. Division Bell is a great mood setting album.
Congrats on being featured in FWW Mike, and congrats to you and the wife on baby #2. Can't wait to see what you do with that room.
Thank you and thank you. I am almost done with the nursery remodel. I will have the video out soon.
Congratulations on being featured in FWW.That is indeed an honor. Can't wait to read the article and hope you have many more.
Thank you. I hope so too.
"A heavy 32nd of an inch" I smiled, a 64th? I can not see that small any more.
BTW Pink Floyd is my go to for the shop. Wish You Were Here is my fav along with DSOTM of course. Ummagumma is on repeat. Saw DSOTM when they came to D.C. at JKF Center when I was a junior in high school. Blew me away.
I can't see the 64ths either, I go crosseyed trying to focus on one. I'm sure that show was spectacular. Dark side is one of the best albums made.
Just got my FW in Saturday's mail. Well done. Nice article. Really great seeing you spending time with your son. Those are days you will never get back, revel in them.
Thank you very much. Having the little guy around is a pleasure.
My FWW mag just arrived. Can't believe this was not on the front page.
Thanks must Mike! I must try this stuff.
Thank you Jim, let me know if you like the article. Its a good issue for sure.
@@jimw544 Thank you Jim. There was a little in the article about the jigs, mostly just dimensions, but yes, I have more on my channel. Give it a shot, I think you'll like it.
Saw your comment just below, congratulations, being a dad is awesome, my daughter turns 15 tomorrow. Rush Rules !!!!
Thank you. Happy B day to her.
I'm jealous of the size of your shop
Thank you?
Beautiful craftsmanship and a playlist pairing. nice.
Thank you very much.
I love the "tip of the cap" to the Canadian Power Trio! Your videos are awesome, sir.
Thank you, they are the best.
After seeing the kumiko lamp video in my recommendations for a few weeks I finally watched it just this morning, so good timing putting this out today!
Cool. I'm happy the timing worked out for you.
A great FW article and wonderful supporting video. Now if I can withstand the cold in my shop I will start creating!
Thank you very much. My shop was 8 degrees yesterday morning.
I know i always say it - but your work on this is incredible - beautiful work - so satisfying when you dropped the freshly papered panel into the frames!! thanks for sharing Mike!
Thank you Toby. I love the feeling I get when I'm putting together a project for the final time. Satisfying is a great word to describe it.
Wow, it's a joy watching your Kumiko work, Mike. To me, Kumiko has this meditational feel to it. I don't mind the repetitive aspects of it, it serves to keeping me on my toes, this being fiddly work requiring a high degree of accuracy. Love your channel, keep it up and rock on.
Thank you. It is quite meditative, thats one of the reasons I like it.
This by far is one of the best, and most intricate woodworking videos I've seen. It would be an exercise in patience for sure. Btw, showing clips of you and your son was great. Thats something else that the world needs to exercise more of :)
Thank you very much.
Hey Mike. Found this video after stumbling across a picture of a kumiko lantern which I fell in love with. Didnt even know this genre of wood working existed... Anyways, I made a sled and followed your method and I now have four 36" x 16" panels made up that fit without a hitch. Haven't started the infill yet, but am excited to learn that as well. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
That is really neat to hear. I put out the video and article, I know a few people watch and read, but I wonder how many apply the method. I'm so happy to hear it has worked for you. I would really like to see what you come up with. If you can email me via my website.
@@MikeFarrington I have a busy few weeks at work, and so the project is going to languish here for a bit. I will definitely send you an email once I get some of the infill started. Again, thanks for the video and talk to you soon.
@@Kingilization No rush. Any time is fine.
Read the article yesterday. Did not pick up on the fact it was you. Nice Work Sir.
Thank you very much. Hope you liked the article.
Poles Apart is my favourite!
A great one for sure!
I had no idea you were a famous contributor to fine woodworking magazine, congrats, that is so awesome!!! Much respect!!
Thank you very much. Yes, it was a big honor to be published in FWW.
@@MikeFarrington and if you ever get down and start to think you are not influencing people, just know that yesterday, I said, outloud, in my best Mike Farrington voice "will make quick work of trimming........." it was pretty funny
@@Rage-of-War Ha! That is really great to hear.
Your work inspires me , you should teach classes , I can’t learn stuff very well by reading directions but if u show me how to do it I’ll never forget , how did y make your ... plane angle cutter lol also might add I am tool envious , dude you have everything, I’m slowly collecting stuff which I’m sure you did , but if I can get the same tools you have I will , funny story , I remember u saying in one of your vids that you wish that your smaller router is your favorite and they don’t make them anymore ,, unfortunately my grandfather passed away last year and he messed around with wood working , among all of his tools I am inheriting ,,,,,,, guess what , the same exact router , lol I was so excited when I saw it
I am planning to teach some classes at my shop in the coming months. I am sorry to hear of your grandfather passing, but that will be a great tool for you for many years.
YOU ARE THE MAN! after a day of frustration and challenges, watching your videos gives me inspiration for tomorrow. "THE THICKNESS OF THE KERF MUCH MATCH THE THE THICKNESS OF THE STRIP PERFECTLY" (???) Tolerance????? I try for a couple of a couple of thou...am I wrong??
I have not paid too much attention to the clearance. You are probably right, a few thou.
Fantastic video as usual. All the best for the new kid
Thank you. We are rapidly closing in on the due date.
I grew up watching Norm on New Yankee Workshop but Mike has the feelgood factor whatever he doe's, i always look forward to a new video from him, keep them coming , from a big fan over the pond.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for learning, thinking and sharing. I hope others find inspiration not just from the creativity in your videos, but also from the simple act of learning and sharing that you continuously pursue. Happy to hear you're bringing more awesome people into the world!
Thank you. Learning is what keeps woodworking interesting.
I thought I had patience , but this takes it to a whole new level.........also going to dig out my copy of Division Bell haven't listened to it for years. Thanks for the video.
Thank you. Division Bell still sounds as good today as it did in the mid 90s.
My comment is pretty basic....to be clear...the thickness of the kumiko is the thickness of the blade (more or less - minus tolerance). I have always struggled with getting a perfect fit between the dado thickness and the kumiko thickness. I determine the width of the dado and then subtract 3 thousand of an inch for the width of the kumiko...then the task of milling to that EXACT thickness. The other major struggle is running a series of dados over a long run...the tolerance between the indexing pin on the sled and each successive dado adds up over a long run (3 ft for example). The tolerance with one dado on each end is negligent but milling a run of 30 or 40 dados thru the sled jig adds up quickly...reaching out to all you craftsmen out here!
The thicknessing jig I showed in this video should get you close enough. Some times I have to come back and take a small shaving off of one joint here and there. As to the dados being out. If there is slop in your indexing pin, make sure to put consistent pressure in the same direction for each cut. It would be the opposite direction when using the other indexing pin. This should help keep things as consistent as possible.
@@MikeFarrington Thanks so much for the tip!...pushing firmly in one direction makes perfect sense. The tolerance between index pin and dado adds up quickly!
This video/article pushed me over the fence on my Fine Woodworking Unlimited sign up decision. I'm going to give this a shot this weekend I think. I wonder how it will handle a 40mm pitch
Thank you. Let me know how you like it. 40mm is fine, thats about 1 1/2". Anywhere from 1" on up would work fine.
Congrats on the new kiddo! And the FWW article. I looked behind you in the new room and thought you tore down all that beautiful wainscot work from the dining room. Then I came to my senses and realized its just the same window in another part of the house... yes I am that smart today.
Thank you and thank you. Same window on the next floor up. Good eye.
You know Mike, 90% of what you covered in this awesome video was so over my head it wasn't even funny. You're such a superb craftsman I'd watch you place old treasured magazines atop a 4' A frame ladder. I too, get jazzed when a new video of yours is launched if not only to see precious clips of you and the shop apprentice as well as your music suggestions. Roger Waters' politics notwithstanding, Pink Floyd is always a quality choice (I'm a huge fan of Mr. Gilmour). Finally, my quest to locate the true location of Xanadu is ever nearing thanks to you....From my family to yours, prayers and well wishes over the birth of your next child.
Thank you very much David. I'm with ya on Roger, certainly a musical genius though. I am also a huge fan of David Gilmour. He has a great voice, and can play the guitar like no one else.
Man that walnut grid... beautiful.
Thank you.
Awesome video and article Mike. Congratulation on your upcoming family addition. Can't wait to see what you did to the baby's room.
Thank you very much. The nursery video will be out soon.
Awesome project. I have just finished making a bunch of jigs, now I need to make an angled sled
Thank you. Give the sled a go, its not to tuff to build.
Agreed! The division bell is awesome! Beautiful work!
Thank you.
Congrats on your Fine Woodworking article!Mike you are taking finish woodworking to a new level!👍👍👍
Thank you very much.
Your work is gorgeous… I feel inspired. I never tried kumiko before, but I absolutely love it. Great video my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
FWW?! How amazing is that? Congrats Mike, that's gotta be a huge bucket list item to check off. Wow. Beautiful Kumiko
Thank you Geek. To be published in FWW is about the highest honor a woodworker can achieve. A truly humbling experience.
@@MikeFarrington Very humbling, but your work deserves it.
@@GeeksWoodShop Thats kind to say Geek.
my favourite channel
Thank you.
Knew an article would be coming after Mike P mentioned you on the STL podcast. Congrats! Keep up the great work. New people/apprentices included.
Thank you very much Devin.
Literally thought of you today as "I haven't seen anything from Mike lately." So happy that is no longer the case. I hope to try Kumiko one day. Great build, congrats on the article.
Thank you very much Zach.
I have a feeling I'll use some of these techniques in projects that are completely different than what you built. The fixtures you used are top shelf.
Thank you Greg. Happy to hear you found a few useful tips.
Man, I had such a crush on ONJ after seeing that skating movie.
Ha! I was wondering who would pick up on that reference. She was very pretty in that movie. I must admit, that was not the original inspiration for the location of my shop line.
@@MikeFarrington your love of fantasy skating then.
The inspiration came from my readings about Kubla Khan. However, I have seen the 1980 movie Xanadu staring ONJ.
@@MikeFarrington A woodworker on TH-cam replied to a comment I wrote about the Get Physical lady which led to further communication prompting me to learn some history and even read a poem at work on a busy Monday morning. This is a cool world we get to live in.
@@kipsimpson2332 Totally agree, I love having access to the information we have these days. I'm starting to think this internet thing isn't just a fad.
This was the best and most informative video on Kumiko I have ever seen! You explain your process so very clearly and it is very pleasing to watch you coming along with your work! Please keep on making such great videos so that more people understand the beauty, but also the complexity and difficulty of fine woodworking! Looking forward to new videos from you !
Thank you very much. I'll have another video out soon. Stay tuned.
Thanks for the shout out, Mike. And great work, too! I'm sure you'll inspire folks to try this.
Wow, is this THE Tom McKenna? Thank you sir.
'Animals' was a strong favourite of mine for many years, the very long track lengths were something that I sought in many of the genres of music I grew up listening to. Finding the rare hour long, single track album was always a fun (Green Carnation, Edge of Sanity, Diabolical Masquerade...).
I guess like a lot of folks that spent time in smoky bedrooms as a teenager, 'Dark Side of The Moon' was the first album of theirs that I was ever introduced to. Nowadays, 'Wish You Were Here' would be my go-to album choice. As some of my friends leant heavily into their darker and weirder material, I seemed to go the opposite and prefer the rockier stuff, hence the love for 'Animals'. 'Meddle' was just too much for me, even if "One of These Days" is an absolute belter.
Animals is great, no question there. The Wall was my first exposure to Pink Floyd. When I find a band that I really like, I tend to go through phases where sometimes I like stuff from one point in their career and then find myself liking stuff from a different point. Rush and Pink Floyd are two perfect examples of bands that had really different sounds over the years. All of it good, some I like better at different points.
Great video!! And congratulations on the baby to arrive very soon!!
Thank you very much.
A new shop apprentice? Congrats!
Thank you very much. We're on the home stretch, few more weeks.
Congratulations on getting in Fine Woodworking. Well deserved
Thank you very much.
Nice video. I'm doing a simple Kumiko project now. Going better than one would have expected. :-) Precice jigs really do help! Thanks for the ideas of where to go next.
Thank you. Good luck on your project.
Congratulations exceptional work, I loved
Thank you very much.
Awesome video! Really enjoyed it. I will be making your sled at some point. I am only just now getting into the art. Thanks for the info share!
Awesome! Thank you!
BEAUTIFUL, and congrulations on New kiddo...
Thank you so much 😀
Well, now i have another project added to my growing list of things i want to try. All that while i'm sitting here dragging my feet on a kitchen table project. It's been sitting in my garage for two months after warping slightly. Amazing how somewhat small problems completely derail my projects. I'm lucky that my wife doesn't throw a fit about the cars being in the driveway. CO hasn't gotten all that much snow this year, so i guess that's why she's being more understanding.
Anyway - love your videos. Great work.
Thank you. Warping is a part of woodworking. Don't let that slow you down.
Saw your article the other day in my latest Fine Woodworking magazine, way to go! Glad this popped up on my recommended videos, Nice job!
Thank you very much.
Anyone else notice the rock in front of the shop looks like it has a face and the want to watch this amazing woodwork?
I have not, but I will go back and look.
Haha. Its minute 1:21
I re-watched, I can see where you are coming from.
Beautiful. This video makes me think. . . I work in Industrial automation where robots and machines are the builders. Given this perspective, I'm fascinated with things hand-made. Especially with processes that are BETTER suited for a human hand, than a machine's. It's possible a machine could be built to assemble Kumiko but economies of scale wouldn't allow it. There is an intrinsic currency embedded in things like this, especially when the things have beauty. It exists because shortcuts don't. (Besides a super-secret table saw sled) Anyways awesome video and congrats on the FWW article!
Thank you very much. Interesting thoughts.
A block is one of my least favorite planes. Watching this I see I should get to know it better. Thanks Mike.
I really like my block plane. I use it for all kinds of stuff, including kumiko.
And congratulations on the new addition. Now the shop apprentice will have an assistant. LOL
Ha! Hadn't thought of it that way, the shop apprentice's apprentice.
I like how Kumiko looks at the center of the intersection. It creates those shining like circles of wood. It is a fantastic illusion that is possible only with the perfection you showed. Congrats on the FW article. I heard in the podcast about you.
Best regards from Croatia
Thank you very much. I'm with you on the little dots, it really tricks my eye.
fantastic work Mike! After a long day chiseling tile off a floor, it's nice to watch some fine craftsmanship!
Thank you!
Congrats on your next kiddo!
Thank you. Couple more weeks.
Beautiful job and thank you for this video
Thank you.
Great job Mike. Congrats on FWW, that's awesome. You deserve it, your work and craftsmanship are very inspiring.
Thank you very much.
Been looking at all types of angle jigs for kumiko to make and I think yours are the best as they have the extended registration area at the front for a block plane or a chisel if you prefer. Nice work and very inspiring!
Thank you. That is why I make them the way I do. I like to use both a plane and a chisel.
Thanks for sharing Mike 👍
My pleasure, thank you for watching.
Your precision is um, what's the word.... precise... Awesome work dude.
Ha! Thank you.
good job, was looking to build some lamps and this will come in handy. I won t attempt this level of precision but it gives me an Idea how to do a square pattern. thank you for sharing.
I have a few other videos on my channel, one where I show the square pattern and one where I build a couple lanterns. They may be of interest.
Very nice Mike. As always, well done.
Thank you Pat.
You do beautiful work.
Thank you very much.
Mike, CONGRATS on the article AND your love of Kumiko continues to express!
Thank you Mike.
Division Bell is a phenomenal album!! Great vid again! Thanks!
Such a great album, thank you very much.
DIVISION BELL!! Sonic Gold!!
Agreed.
Now that was impressive !
Thank you.
Thanks for making!
My pleasure.
Those are beautiful Mike! Congrats on your Fine Woodworking debut as well! Best wishes to you and yours with the expanding household.
Thank you very much Nathan.
