Low Table with Traditional Japanese Joineries - Part 1 (Marking branches, wedged through M&T)

Part 2: • Low Table with Traditi...
Building a low table using only hand-cut traditional joineries (no glue or nails). The wood I used for the legs is Ash (I believe) and the milled material is Beech.
I'm away from my workshop and did not have all the proper tools. Some of the methods shown in the video are not the "proper way". I had to get a little creative with the limited tools I had.

The disclaimer in the description suggests this is his version of a half arsed job, but for any normal human this is the hole grail of woodworking achievement. Beautiful.

[@jamesnasmith984]

The pencil lines of the layout are the achievement of an artist!

[@r3obin649]

I just fell in love with that kind of wood working, please continue sharing this with us.

[@dylaniwakuni]

[@DorianBracht]

Fantastic Dylan! This was a pleasure to watch and had me hypnotized. Can't wait for part 2 :)

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thank you Dorian!

[@rolandgdean]

I like your disclaimer about "how-to". I like to say in my videos, "This video is not a HOW-TO, this video is how-I-do...now, you go do you."

[@Zoltec-q1g]

Thank you!

[@TheCompleteGuitarist]

I have adopted your method for making square the tenon and other joint components. My technique needs some work and my chisels need flattening better but it works amazingly well. Thanks for sharing this. I have never seen it before.

[@gayle4s383]

[@nik27mustapa85]

video nice n yr chisel are so sharp..the sound when cutting the wood it's like eating snack😂..btw where can buy chisel sharp like that

[@creatorhunterwildlifefishe7388]

Can we make one if we're not timber carpenter

[@BeeBait]

My local park and local Christian school worked out a deal with the city to expand their playground by destroying a half acre of trees in the park and a portion of the trail. Areas we have loved and enjoyed for my childhood. The parks left the remains in large piles to decay, then they will mulch them and resell them at a local lumber store owned by a chairman of the Christian schools. So every night I go by on my electric bike and take back the trees that they killed and create wonderful art from them. It's all cedar though, so any ideas on small crafts is appreciated.

[@zachcano7784]

very skilful, was a pleasure to watch. FYI, 'joinery' is singular and plural. so strictly speaking, your title should be 'Building a...traditional Japanese joinery'.

[@wanmerah]

Nice saw, very nicely sharpened chisel. Good skill. I learn much from u.
What saw is that?

[@tarmacgrinder]

Was the video shot in Germany? I thought you were based in Japan. Did you try the famous chisels with the cherries on the handle? (Kirschen Stechbeitel) Is there a comparable Japanese brand?

[@tconiam]

I notice that you often wet your end grain before making the final cuts with the chisel. What do you use, water, or some type of oil?

[@DavidrKun]

I might be 2 years let, but you might want to build yourself a small wooden Cart. with bike wheels. but walking is very healthy. it would be an amazing video

[@bbbbbdddbbbbbdb]

amazing ! great sound
btw i think the link you are using for your joinery models might not be working

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thanks for letting me know. I've updated the link so it should work now. www.dropbox.com/sh/ethawktkhzylbxt/AAAgY1i5Vc-f8BEphNZJ6mWKa?dl=0
Cheers!

[@arkansasboy45]

What a great looking joint. Are you using any ink lines in your layouts?

[@hugomontalvo2599]

Good

[@y-bossa-boss5828]

What language were they speaking in the background?

[@Warrf]

Not too bad for a beginner. I give you a thumbs up because your technique reminds me of myself.👍

[@farhangheydari2168]

What is a pivot hinge door?

[@paulbiry8756]

hey dude what is yours wood chisel, i need it

[@Max-xh1ey]

You live in Germany?

[@HansPeterSloot]

Don't you get weird looks from people seeing you with the branches?
When gather wood I often do. ;-)

[@roncy68]

Mytic!!!

[@brothershipgoal]

👍👍👍🙂🙂

[@joaquinespinoza417]

Chisel

[@pilladisimo87]

Very dangerous to hold the wood only with the hand wen you are using the saw
