    Like ancient craftsmen, no nails, no glues, all interlocking joineries. Takes a master with endless patience and attention to details. Shoji done the right way.

    At 0:40 you showed 15 seconds of how to mill thin strips to thickness and I will remember it for a lifetime. As I was watching further and thinking about that I realized you were showing many more great techniques and I wished I had written them down just to point them all out. What a great video. What a great teaching video. Thanks for sharing your skills. I'm paying attention.

    Lovely handwork, what is the name of the tool you used for riving? ( BTW I use cocktail sticks too on my musical instruments as index pins for matching tops to bodies, the sticks used to be really hard beechwood but they have switched to a softer timber altogether these days.)

    Mitch, why did't you show applying paper to the shoji screen? Would be really useful to watch. Overall, great work and must have taken a lot of time!

    • @mitchwoodwork
      @mitchwoodwork  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Andrei. I couldn't afford the proper shoji paper for these screens that were destined for my workshop, so I don't think it would have been a great demonstration. I used tissue paper, which is very fragile, and proved much more of a challenge than I think the shoji paper would have been. On a positive note, I intend filming a short series covering how to build a basic shoji. In this I will show the measuring, design, marking out, joints, assembly, and papering. Not sure exactly when I will have the chance to do it, but hopefully something to look forward to.

    if a couple has their baby in a small house, the baby wud have 100% broken shoji screen panels. one panel has many vertical and horizontal wooden frame pieces. so it doesnt have full strength as a partition or a door. the shoji paper sheet is expensive and a shoji repair worker costs actually too much here in japan. only the japanese restaurants and the hotels that have the shoji panels with such decorative patterns 10:09.

    • @mitchwoodwork
      @mitchwoodwork  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes I can imagine that. Although certainly the impression we get here is that Japanese are willing to pay for craftsmanship, where as in the West most just want everything on the cheap.
