I thought this was fascinating.

Japanese with English titles.

 

[JNCarr]

Remarkable craftsmanship. There is a strong sense of pride in doing things right. Thanks for posting.

 

[bob vaughan]

All that work and without Festool Dominos and Incra jigs. Amazing.

 

[Melinapex]

Build a house with a chisel...... cool.

I can't imagine the level of precision craftsmanship involved in the construction shown in this video, truly amazing! It also makes me feel a very inadequate. Considering the very small projects I have built and the magnitude of my measuring errors, building a house with the joints these craftsmen use is beyond my comprehension. Also, I would love to have some of the big chisels these guys use...not sure what I would use them for, I just want to have them.

Careful, Donn, that path will cause shop overflow!

Donn they're called "slicks" and every timberframer has one in his tool box.

Thanks for sharing, I can't imagine what it would cost to design and build like this here in the US.

While a little different - timber framing is alive and well here in the US
While I agree with you that it can be costly, there are advantages to the finished product, especially if you like timber features on the interior of your home...

Also, I am guessing these guys are bettign on the desire of people to want timber frame homes and buildings;

I watched a series in 2020 on a young couple building a timber frame home and it was really enjoyable learning about all the intricacies and myriad decisions that have to be made. Here is a link to that channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/Purelivingforlife/videos

Some people call them frauds and there is some suspicious things about whey they stopped vlogging about their property, but, they bought land, lived in a trailer while building their timber frame home, so even if they were scamming and simply making money off the channel, they did build a timber frame home!

The best part is - he did this with a Shopsmith tool - Which continually gets a bad rap as an inferior tool- even here where we should know better

If you're making bird houses on a SawStop...you've mismatched your requirements with your capitol equipment needs more than the guy building timber frame homes with a Shopsmith.

I maintain that the limit on workmanship is first and foremost the workman, rather than the tool.

Sure you can get bad results on any improperly setup/misunderstood tool...but thats on the workman...not the tool

That Video of the master craftsmen in Japan demonstrates just how far the result depends on the craftsman and maybe more importantly their
philosophy of work overall. Sure-he isn't going to house the entire city in a custom build like that, but you're damn lucky if you happen to be one of the few
who gets a home like that! There will always be a place for demonstration of just how far high quality can go ! Something to strive for !
