Japanese Carpentry is some of the finest skills someone could have when it come's to Wood Working. It seems as if you have Nailed it Mate. You've shown all, just how Beautifully this stile of Wood Working should be executed. This example of Wood Working is way above your normal everyday Carpenter skills, that I would consider it being Art. Thanks for sharing your hard earned knowledge with me. I do appreciate this, very much.
i would aPpreciate it if yoU would not capitalize Random letters, sir. Here's a quick refresh: proper nouns (unique individuals, events, or places), the name of a person, or the first letter in a sentence. That's it. Three simple rules!
All about this channel teaches you to exercise patience. The planning, preparing the wood and working on it, the upload schedule. Definitely one of my favourites. Thanks for so much, Mr. C.
Words can attempt to give praise for your skills and improvements but what I truly admire is your patience and perseverance to get the job done. Your willingness to reduce the set on the saw to achieve the clean cut in an extremely tough piece of wood is remarkable. I could not imagine you using a dull saw but as I listened I could tell that the set was not huge. Your endurance is astounding. Most of all, I can not believe you're able to find somewhere where there aren't hundreds of people standing around watching you work. If I had a complaint it would be too few videos but I would not want you to stop expressing your skills with wood and tool.Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words Clyde. Your ear is right sir! This particular tree shot up 150 years ago when our land was cleared for pasture, it grew fast till the hardwoods replaced the pasture then it slowed wayyyy down. Its last several inches of wood had 50+ rings to the inch, and in "yellow" type pine, that equals almost solid latewood, which is insanely hard. Id wager this pine is denser and stronger than most hardwoods in our forests. It really felt like going through metal with a hacksaw at times. It was also dried 3 years. The saws, both rip and corsscut, though very sharp have just the slightest touch of set. BUt they do give a very nice straight flat face that needed no clean up.
Man, I really love your videos. You do some amazing work out there. Framing, carpentry, furniture making, black smithing, stone work it’s all awesome. Some of the coolest hand tool work I’ve ever seen really. May your endeavors be fruitful.
Impressive. I look at this stuff and think about the amount of time it takes me, as a hobbyist woodworker, to build a shelf or a cabinet. Then, I think about the time it would take me to do those things using only hand tools. And, it makes his work all the more impressive to me. I have a lot of respect for Roy Underhill and I consider Mr Chickadee the next generation Wood Wright.
I love watching your content. I can pick any video from any list, from any project and be happily awestruck with your work. Thank you mr, and mrs chickadee.
BUENAS NOCHES MÍSTER CHUIKADEE. ME GUSTA MUCHO LA FORMA EN QUE HACE SUS TRABAJOS EN LA MADERA .CON SU DEBIDO TIEMPO Y LAS HERRAMIENTAS BIEN AFILADAS.MIS SALUDOS DESDE URUGUAY 🇺🇾 FELIPE 🙋.
So Felipe of the Uruguayan Stuck capslock crew said "GOOD EVENING MR. CHUIKADEE. I REALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU DO YOUR WORK IN WOOD, WITH DUE TIME AND WELL SHARPENED TOOLS. MY REGARDS FROM URUGUAY". Muchas Gracias Felipe!
Very nicely done. Always enjoyable to watch. The automatic subtitles were fun to read: saw: hm, so, [music], hey, so, yes, [music] chisel: so drill: so, [music] chisel: [music] birds: so hammer: so, so, so birds: so 😀
You are amazing! I’m so proud that their are still true hand skilled craftsmen/women out here. I’m and old school welder/ fabricator, still not as hand skilled, no power, no nails, just precise, highly experienced, knowledge handed down from many generations of very proud Craftsman. Thank you so very much for sharing you knowledge and experience with us
The Hōryū-ji temple in Japan is over 700 years old…given that Mr. Chickadee employs Japanese construction techniques, perhaps his structures can last even longer than 300 years.
Without doubt one of the most compelling channels to watch, without the spoken word, The complexity of the joints, allowing the varying wood shapes, is extremely clever. My only complaint - the interlude between episodes.
Excited to see how you lift it, and the entire project come together. I aspire to one day build like you. I am going to start with some smaller oaks for the structure of my wallapini.
I dont see what the big deal is? Everybody hand chisels, hand drills, hand cuts their own timber beams with the pains-taking effort and precision as Mr Chickadee. Shoot, there's nothing to see here, there's no syncopated music, no catchy title, no sponsors hocking expensive tools, no swag to buy, no expensive shop to walk-through. Mr Chickadee has nothing...except 375,000 subscribers that are interested in a man who does what only 1 in 65,000 men would do. Love Mr Chickadee's work and his videos. I'm in.
Good entertainment! Personally I'd have to say "look how I can do ancient craftsmanship with modern tools". I still enjoy watching Mr. Chickadee all the same.
Bellissimo lavoro, di pazienza e precisione non comuni! Grazie di condividere con noi la tua bravura.Cercherò di applicare le tue tecniche ai lavori della mia baita ma sarà dura. Saluti dalle alpi Apiane 🇮🇹
Excellent video and amazing job, as always! 👍 Seeing You sawing ends of that timber, remained me one time, when I needed to cut in the half old railroad sleeper with hand saw for garage floor support.. Very hard wood, indeed, these sleepers.. Nice precision and patience! 😉
it grew fast when young, then as the hardwoods grew up around it and shaded it, growth slowed to a crawl and the last 50 rings are so tiny as to be almost one. In yellow pine this makes for extremely hard wood.
