I will be teaching fine working to underprivileged children starting in a week or 2. When they were here last week I had them try out both western and Japanese saws. They found the Ryouba easier to use than a standard tenon saw. I see you are in Switzerland. I am originally from Ireland, but prefer the warmer climate here now. Good luck with your new channel
@@IrishChippy that's normal they prefer the ryoba, it's more natural and precise for beginners to pull the saw than pushing it ;) I'd love to go to Ireland one day (guiness drinker 😬). Wish you all luck too
I would've liked to have seen the methods you use for measuring and marking. Is measuring and marking not an integral part of joinery? Nice video otherwise.
Hi Matthias - love the video! One question: how easy/hard is it to remove the pin once it's hammered home? Are there any techniques for providing an easy mechanism for disassembly of such a joint? Thanks!
A new definition of "SHARP"!
Nice job Matthias. After 42 years on western tools, now my ryobas are my go to saws
Thank you :)
Usually trying japanese tools means a high risk of adopt them ...

I am going to need lots of luck. I have a severe dose of diarrhea this morning, and the official opening/blessing of the workshop is in 8 hours
Just what i was looking for

Excellent sir, why you wet the wood before chiseling? Thanks
WOW nice catch, i didn't see that. probably because it will make it softer and easier to chisel.

is that just water sprayed on or something else? Amazing work, thanks
Yes, just water ;)
Music credits please! Great music!
Can you explain your measuring please
Are you Wetting the wood with water what is the reason?
I'm curious about the same. Why wetting the wood?
it makes end grain paring easier on soft woods, prevents the fibers from tearing.
