ISHITANI - Making a Medicine Chest with lots of drawers

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ย. 2018
  • It was a request for remake of damaged old medicine chests.
    Difficult thing was to put drawers of different sizes into one chest.
    Normally, drawer sizes will be made later, but this time we used those old drawers as they are.
    今回は古い薬箪笥のリメイクのご依頼でした。
    二つの箪笥を一つにまとめます。
    通常引き出しは後からサイズを合わせて作るのですが、今回は古い引き出しをそのまま残すので、異なるサイズの引き出しが上手く収まるように設計しなくてはなりません。
    もう薬屋さんでは見かけない箪笥ですが、小さな引き出しが並んでいるのは壮観でかわいいです。また昔の薬のネーミングが秀逸です。

    Ah, that was just the push I needed: I‘ve had a pharmacy chest sitting in the shed waiting for a restoration for over a year. As seven of the drawers are missing, I have been trying to find aged wood to reproduce the drawer fronts and not really working on the chest. After watching your video I‘ve been at it happily for the last few hours - thank you for the inspiration and the motivation

      I was thinking exactly the same. It so often doesn't work when people try to imitate something with age, it just comes off as tacky. It's really only when you create a contrast of new and old in quality that it works because it respects the past.

      The power of contrast as a poetic device.

    Absolutely stunning example of up-cycling. Your finest piece to date. This is how old items should be incorporated into the new. Well done Ishitani-san.

    Fantastic work. I'm always amazed at how many folk think that some tool or other does the work. Tools don't make the work - the woodworker does - and in this case, Natsuki really knows what he's doing.
    As always, it's a real pleasure to watch you working, especially in what must rank as one of the all time best woodwork shops ever!

    Some, take lunch breaks, some take a nap break. I take Ishitani breaks... your videos are like asmr. I'm watching your videos two times. The first one, carefully watching and admiring the craftsmanship and the second, just listening the process.
    Thank you.

    Always in awe of the near-absolute precision of Japanese craftsmen and artisans, but also a little freaked out by it. I'm glad that this level of dedication exists in the world, and equally glad that I'm far more forgiving in my own work.

    I love watching these TH-cam videos Saturday morning as I sit at my bench drinking my first coffee, getting ready. This is stunningly beautiful, the craftsmanship, the design idea, and the quality of the video. No unnecessary load music, or commentary. I have a project for a drawer till for my bench and I gotta few construction ideas from this posting. Thank you.

    In my mind its awesome to see Ishitani do "his thing" with the wood :)
    But the editing and cutting are awesome aswell, love to see him plaining the surface as concentrated as thinking about the right measurements.
    The slow and peaceful music is on point and all the Videos are Masterpieces just like they are :)
