After seeing the kumiko lamp video in my recommendations for a few weeks I finally watched it just this morning, so good timing putting this out today!
Cool. I'm happy the timing worked out for you.
Literally thought of you today as "I haven't seen anything from Mike lately." So happy that is no longer the case. I hope to try Kumiko one day. Great build, congrats on the article.
Thank you very much Zach.
You never cease to amaze me, buddy. One minute you're making something the size of a large wall, and the next you making something as delicate as Kumiko.
Thank you very much.
Just got my FW in Saturday's mail. Well done. Nice article. Really great seeing you spending time with your son. Those are days you will never get back, revel in them.
Thank you very much. Having the little guy around is a pleasure.
Out of everyone on UA-cam, I look forward to your videos the most! I learn something new every time I watch them. You truly are inspirational and your content and deliver is second to none. Keep up the great work!
That is very kind to say. Thank you very much. I will have another video out soon.
Congratulations on being featured in FWW.That is indeed an honor. Can't wait to read the article and hope you have many more.
Thank you. I hope so too.
Your honesty and sense of humor make every video highly enjoyable!
Thank you. Honesty is one of the core goals of each video I make, I'm happy to hear that shows through.
This right here. This is what separates professionals from hobbyists. You must be the most patient father ever.
Thank you. I consider myself patient, but I have my moments.
Mike, CONGRATS on the article AND your love of Kumiko continues to express!
Thank you Mike.
I know i always say it - but your work on this is incredible - beautiful work - so satisfying when you dropped the freshly papered panel into the frames!! thanks for sharing Mike!
Thank you Toby. I love the feeling I get when I'm putting together a project for the final time. Satisfying is a great word to describe it.
As soon as you said Pink Floyd, division bell popped into my head. By far one of my most favorite when it comes to the perfect background music to anything that requires cool attention to detail if that makes sense. Very nice project Mike and congratulations on the article and the new addition to the family.
Thank you very much Jeff. Division Bell is a great mood setting album.
Beside the fact you’re a phenomenal woodworker, you’re definitely one of the best narrators in the business too. Extremely easy to listen to and very articulate.
Keep up the great work, Mike.
Thank you. Thank is very kind to say, I'm happy to hear that my message is understandable.
I am fascinated by these beautiful patterns but I am even more fascinated by your way of showing how to make them. Your calm way of explaining and the pictures you chose to show are captivating. Thank you for sharing this video!
Thank you for the kind words.
Thanks for the video Mike!! Glad to finally see a table saw sled that shows how to make the hexagonal kumiko. Super cool that this made it into fine woodworking, Congrats!!!
Thank you Robert.
This was the best and most informative video on Kumiko I have ever seen! You explain your process so very clearly and it is very pleasing to watch you coming along with your work! Please keep on making such great videos so that more people understand the beauty, but also the complexity and difficulty of fine woodworking! Looking forward to new videos from you !
Thank you very much. I'll have another video out soon. Stay tuned.
Wow, it's a joy watching your Kumiko work, Mike. To me, Kumiko has this meditational feel to it. I don't mind the repetitive aspects of it, it serves to keeping me on my toes, this being fiddly work requiring a high degree of accuracy. Love your channel, keep it up and rock on.
Thank you. It is quite meditative, thats one of the reasons I like it.
Agreed! The division bell is awesome! Beautiful work!
Thank you.
Congrat's on the Fine Woodworking article! That is one of my personal goals, thanks for the tips.John
Thank you. Its been a dream of mine for many many years.
Congrats on your Fine Woodworking article!Mike you are taking finish woodworking to a new level!👍👍👍
Thank you very much.
Thanks for the shout out, Mike. And great work, too! I'm sure you'll inspire folks to try this.
Wow, is this THE Tom McKenna? Thank you sir.
Great tips you included in this video. I'll be referencing back to it a couple times. Thanks so much for sharing Mike!
Thank you. Thats great to hear. Let me know if anything is unclear.
This by far is one of the best, and most intricate woodworking videos I've seen. It would be an exercise in patience for sure. Btw, showing clips of you and your son was great. Thats something else that the world needs to exercise more of :)
Thank you very much.
As usual, great workmanship and I always appreciate you sharing your methods with us. Congrats on the article as well!! AND the new addition!!
Thank you very much.
Thanks for learning, thinking and sharing. I hope others find inspiration not just from the creativity in your videos, but also from the simple act of learning and sharing that you continuously pursue. Happy to hear you're bringing more awesome people into the world!
Thank you. Learning is what keeps woodworking interesting.
Great job Mike. Congrats on FWW, that's awesome. You deserve it, your work and craftsmanship are very inspiring.
Thank you very much.
A great FW article and wonderful supporting video. Now if I can withstand the cold in my shop I will start creating!
Thank you very much. My shop was 8 degrees yesterday morning.
Just awesome! I look forward to reading your article as I just subscribed to Fine Woodworking a couple of weeks ago. I am not surprised that they would want your to write an article, you are so knowledgable as well as skilled. Thank you so much for sharing! Oh and congratulations on the soon to be new addition to the family!!
Thank you very much for the kind words.
Mike, a rare and well-deserved honor to grace the pages of Fine Woodworking. Like you, I've been a subscriber for many years, and credit the publishers for a steady improvement in my skills. Best wishes on the baby. Regards, Dave
Thank you very much Dave, hope you're doing well. I credit Fine Woodworking for much of my progress as a woodworker. For example, I would have never heard about kumiko were it not for Fine Woodworking.
Dear Mike, thank you so much for this video! It was perfectly done and very useful👏
Hey Mike. Just received my copy of Fine Woodworking. Great article you wrote on Kumiko. Congrats!
Thank you very much Chris. Happy to hear you liked the article.
Beautiful project! Thank you for sharing your technique!
Thank you, my pleasure.
Knew an article would be coming after Mike P mentioned you on the STL podcast. Congrats! Keep up the great work. New people/apprentices included.
Thank you very much Devin.
Paint a "portal mural" in your shop that I may roller skate into and find you working.
Amazing work as always Mike. Something about your music choice, commentary and 80s trivia adds to the quirky nature of your show!
I am making a run to sherwin williams in the morning for more ceiling paint. I will ask if they sell portal paint at that location or if I need to head over to their commercial coatings store for that. To describe my channel as quirky is, in my opinion a high compliment. Thank you.
Those are beautiful Mike! Congrats on your Fine Woodworking debut as well! Best wishes to you and yours with the expanding household.
Thank you very much Nathan.
Congrats on the addition to your family! Love your videos!
Thank you.
I like how Kumiko looks at the center of the intersection. It creates those shining like circles of wood. It is a fantastic illusion that is possible only with the perfection you showed. Congrats on the FW article. I heard in the podcast about you.
Best regards from Croatia
Thank you very much. I'm with you on the little dots, it really tricks my eye.
Having no idea doing what you do, but being a fan of Japanese art this very cool to watch.
Thank you.
Congrats on being featured in FWW Mike, and congrats to you and the wife on baby #2. Can't wait to see what you do with that room.
Thank you and thank you. I am almost done with the nursery remodel. I will have the video out soon.
Huge fan Mike. Love your work and appreciate your sharing the "super secret table saw sled", etc. Keep it up my man!
Thank you very much Jon. Will do.
Keep it up man. Love the work, humor, the inside look at a real woodworker!!
Thank you very much.
Division Bell is a phenomenal album!! Great vid again! Thanks!
Such a great album, thank you very much.
Congratulations on the article and more importantly congratulations on the new addition. Good luck with everything! Love your work and love your videos.
Thank you very much.
Loved this Mike! I think the "diagonal" gridwork looks more elegant than the standard horizontal and vertical. I also really like the patterns that you can do with the diagonal. The only down side is that it becomes much more difficult to size the kumiko panel in a pre made frame. For example if I was going to make some kumiko for some cabinet doors that are already made I would have to do some complex math to get it to fit properly. I'm definitely going to give this a try though!! Thanks Mike :)
I really like the diagonal gridwork as well. Sizing these panels, the way I do it, is borderline impossible. I go the other way, build my piece around a pre-made kumiko panel. Give it a go, let me know how it turns out!
Several quick points;
A. Congrats on your soon-to-be new vice shop assistant
B. More congrats on getting published
C. Your skill is unreal. The patience required for those tiny pieces with intricate angles...
D. I’ve found myself listening to PF’s Animals album multiple times lately. Their best stuff!
Thank you very much. Animals is great, no question.
That is insanely awesome good sir. Congrats on the FW article. Ill keep an eye out for it.
Thank you very much.
Well, now i have another project added to my growing list of things i want to try. All that while i'm sitting here dragging my feet on a kitchen table project. It's been sitting in my garage for two months after warping slightly. Amazing how somewhat small problems completely derail my projects. I'm lucky that my wife doesn't throw a fit about the cars being in the driveway. CO hasn't gotten all that much snow this year, so i guess that's why she's being more understanding.
Anyway - love your videos. Great work.
Thank you. Warping is a part of woodworking. Don't let that slow you down.
Mike, I found this video amazing. The patience involved is evident and the outcome is beautiful! I really like the detail you added to explain the process. I am not ready to tackle something like this but definitely something in my future. Thanks for posting your video
Thank you. I try to put as much good info in as possible.
I grew up watching Norm on New Yankee Workshop but Mike has the feelgood factor whatever he doe's, i always look forward to a new video from him, keep them coming , from a big fan over the pond.
Thank you very much.
That's fantastic being a feature in FWW! Next stop your own show on PBS. With your awesome detail of instruction and added humor it would be an excellent program.
Thank you. Thats very kind to say.
I love the "tip of the cap" to the Canadian Power Trio! Your videos are awesome, sir.
Thank you, they are the best.
Congrats on the article in fine woodworking!
Thank you very much Chris.
Thanks mike! Just made one this past weekend and works brilliant
Thats really great to hear. Thank you.
Extremely satisfying process to watch! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much.
Nice work, Mike. Been exploring kumiko recently. Amazing history and techniques.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude, you have inspired me to try kumiko. I love your videos and I find you to be very informative. Thanks and I can't wait for your next one!
Thats great to hear! Let me know how it turns out.
Very nice! Thanks for the descriptions you gave, and congratulations on the new arrival!
Thank you very much.
Love watching your content along with the calm commentary
Thank you very much.
Congratulations for your article on FWW. i think that you deserve this achievement, as you show great stuff on your UA-cam channel.
Keep on the quality work!!!
Thank you very much. Will do.
Saw your article the other day in my latest Fine Woodworking magazine, way to go! Glad this popped up on my recommended videos, Nice job!
Thank you very much.
Great to see you back Mike, fantastic video...👍
Thank you.
Great video. Congrats on the article too. It was a very good read.
Thank you and thank you.
Loved the video, really liked the techniques here. And I currently am listening to the Division Bell in its entirety, just passed "A Great Day for Freedom".
Thank you Mark. Few albums flow together from song to song like Division Bell. You and I probably have pretty similar taste in music. I listened to a few of your other suggestions and liked them.
incredible stuff, quality all around from the woodworking to the videos themselves
Thank you very much Matt.
Great FWW article i like the other kumiko patterns pictured as well!
Thank you. I'm happy they included a few other patterns.
Awesome video and article Mike. Congratulation on your upcoming family addition. Can't wait to see what you did to the baby's room.
Thank you very much. The nursery video will be out soon.
Beautiful craftsmanship and a playlist pairing. nice.
Thank you very much.
fantastic work Mike! After a long day chiseling tile off a floor, it's nice to watch some fine craftsmanship!
Thank you!
I have a feeling I'll use some of these techniques in projects that are completely different than what you built. The fixtures you used are top shelf.
Thank you Greg. Happy to hear you found a few useful tips.
Thanks for sharing Mike 👍
My pleasure, thank you for watching.
Hi Mike, just found this channel fairly recently. Your work is exquisite. I love the idea of the thickness jig. Keep up the good work, I'll be watching.
Thank you very much. Great to have you onboard.
That would make a fantastic airflow case
Thank you.
Congratulations on your article. Great job.
Thank yo every much.
Been looking at all types of angle jigs for kumiko to make and I think yours are the best as they have the extended registration area at the front for a block plane or a chisel if you prefer. Nice work and very inspiring!
Thank you. That is why I make them the way I do. I like to use both a plane and a chisel.
Your work is gorgeous… I feel inspired. I never tried kumiko before, but I absolutely love it. Great video my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
FWW?! How amazing is that? Congrats Mike, that's gotta be a huge bucket list item to check off. Wow. Beautiful Kumiko
Thank you Geek. To be published in FWW is about the highest honor a woodworker can achieve. A truly humbling experience.
@@MikeFarrington Very humbling, but your work deserves it.
@@GeeksWoodShop Thats kind to say Geek.
Very nice Mike. As always, well done.
Thank you Pat.
Great method, and congrats on the article - I'll be picking up that issue. Always enjoy watching your videos. Btw, I agree that some children's toys would be a great idea.
Thank you. Let me know what you think of the article. Noted about the children toys. That could be really fun.
Your precision is um, what's the word.... precise... Awesome work dude.
Ha! Thank you.
I totally admire your patience and competence! Awesome content! (:
Thank you very much.
Absolutely awesome 👏🏼
Thank you! Cheers!
Congratulations exceptional work, I loved
Thank you very much.
Beautiful and original! Wow!
Thank you.
Great Video as always. Love the Kumiko content.
Thank you George.
These are some awesome skills on display here!
Thank you.
Fantastic work, Mike....
Many thanks!
Congratulations, Mike! Well deserved.
Thank you.
Thanks for making!
My pleasure.
"A heavy 32nd of an inch" I smiled, a 64th? I can not see that small any more.
BTW Pink Floyd is my go to for the shop. Wish You Were Here is my fav along with DSOTM of course. Ummagumma is on repeat. Saw DSOTM when they came to D.C. at JKF Center when I was a junior in high school. Blew me away.
I can't see the 64ths either, I go crosseyed trying to focus on one. I'm sure that show was spectacular. Dark side is one of the best albums made.
I thought I had patience , but this takes it to a whole new level.........also going to dig out my copy of Division Bell haven't listened to it for years. Thanks for the video.
Thank you. Division Bell still sounds as good today as it did in the mid 90s.
Thank's! Great set of jigs.
Awesome project. I have just finished making a bunch of jigs, now I need to make an angled sled
Thank you. Give the sled a go, its not to tuff to build.
So incredible!!
Thank you.
Super smart. Well done!
Thank you.
Man that walnut grid... beautiful.
Thank you.
Congrats, Mike! Well deserved recognition, dude.
Thanks Andy.
superb video, really inspiring - and clear and practical - thank you.
Thank you for the feed back. Sometimes when I'm editing I am looking at the screen thinking to myself, no one is going to understand this. I'm happy to hear you found the presentation clear.
Poles Apart is my favourite!
A great one for sure!
More kumiko please! Your videos on this stuff are amazing! Would love to see you have a crack at a bigger project, or do a similar smaller one using only hand tools :)
Thank you. I will circle back to another kumiko project at some point. I have a couple other projects to get done first. I would love to tackle a larger project, but unless I'm being paid, I just can't afford the time. My lantern build would be about the biggest I could do. I will probably do a video on how to do this with hand tools. I have a few ideas for jigs that will make this super easy.
Congratulations on joining the ranks of Fine Woodworking authors. I
Thank you very much.
You know Mike, 90% of what you covered in this awesome video was so over my head it wasn't even funny. You're such a superb craftsman I'd watch you place old treasured magazines atop a 4' A frame ladder. I too, get jazzed when a new video of yours is launched if not only to see precious clips of you and the shop apprentice as well as your music suggestions. Roger Waters' politics notwithstanding, Pink Floyd is always a quality choice (I'm a huge fan of Mr. Gilmour). Finally, my quest to locate the true location of Xanadu is ever nearing thanks to you....From my family to yours, prayers and well wishes over the birth of your next child.
Thank you very much David. I'm with ya on Roger, certainly a musical genius though. I am also a huge fan of David Gilmour. He has a great voice, and can play the guitar like no one else.
