That is a beautiful corner. The way the wedge brings the two pieces closer is really nice. Great job.

Incredible to think that a little wedge like that held up a building for 100 years. Something spectacularly symbolic about that

@Papershields001 2 года назад

I’m a wallpaper hanger in the US and I do a lot of work on historic houses. I frequently see work done by paperhangers 100 years ago that impresses me. In fact, the style of Parker hanging from around 1890-1914 really blows modern paperhanging away, a master craftsman’s skill will shine through any gap in time.

@sunnybrakes 2 года назад

Awsome! I'm becoming obsessed with Japanese carpentry, this was fun to watch. I work on some western style timber frame structures. We always lay out, then score our lines before cutting. Is there a similar practice in Japan? I like the way you use a block to register your chisel against, maybe then its not necessary to score first.

No international Amazon? I can buy from Japan even if it doesn't deliver here to the UK, because there is a service called freight forwarding, who send from Japan to the UK.

@ejohnso1967 2 года назад

I have always been fascinated by Japanese buildings constructed without any nails. The craftsmanship is stunning, and simply cutting the wood to fit together has a huge ascetic appeal - almost like a sort of Zen worship. I imagine your work must be very satisfying? So, this joint that you found - there must have been many places where two beams came together in the same sort of way, but there was just this one place where that particular joint was used? I guess because whatever craftsman that was working that joint simply decided that was the way he was going to do it, or was there something particular about the application at that point that would call for that joint?

@phillamoore157 2 года назад

Japanese craftsmanship is a level of beauty that’s nearly impossible to articulate. It never get’s old watching it…and I think it’s what makes them such incredible teachers. They know what it takes to learn something to achieve that level of proficiency. That said, I’m trying to understand what the stick (wedge?) is used for, or how it works. It appears that it works in place of a nail. It’s what holds the corners in place? Can anyone confirm or correct me on that?

@anthonyfetter2904 2 года назад

I’m having trouble understanding how exactly the wedge slot is cut and how it pulls the joint together. But truly beautiful and inspiring. Thanks for sharing again. I recently just cut my first Kane Tsugi joints on a project for my wife, which I learned from you.

@ricos1497 2 года назад

Yep, you just have to go back through the few seconds starting at 7:11 and watch it a few times. I think I've got how it works now, but I imagine nothing will beat trying one! I might wait until next year....

@erk9822 2 года назад

Think of it as a scarf joint but it joins a corner. It’s the same principle, except everything is at a 90° angle

@dylaniwakuni 2 года назад

Happy to hear you made the Kane Tsugi! The wedge acts in the same way as any other joinery. The edges of the slot overlaps and creates an opening for the wedge. As others have mentioned, the best way to understand is to make one too 😊

@garryjohnson3107 2 года назад

Have been wanting to see this corner joint cut so I can try myself, thank you! But ahh man I wish the part where you cut the key slot was there, that's going to make me scratch my head a bit later

Do Japanese carpenters still do these overly engineered joints to impress their peers ? It is beautiful, but i am sure there is like 200+ easier way to make way to join corner in Japanese joinery list, and i am certainly impressed by both original and yours

@klonik79 2 года назад

@@ralphgesler5110 I think you missed my point. That joint is too beautiful and intricate just to reside in a corner of a building, where no one but carpenters may even see it. So it was obviously done to impress (show off to) peers and whomever would see it 100 years down the line, as there are joints that are certainly easier and less time consuming to do. I guess some master carpenter done it to show apprentice another way to do corner, but impressed almost 100 years later we still are ;-)
