What an invaluable heritage to share with the world- Grandpa Amu, I want to thank you for sharing us your incredible craftsman abilities, your humbleness, your patience and dedication. I hope you live a long peaceful healthy life and keep sharing your wisdom with us
Mir ergeht es genauso. 1960 habe ich begonnen das Tischlerhandwerk zu erlernen. Wenn ich so etwas sehen darf, dann habe ich nicht sehr viel gelernt. Danke für dieses Video 🎉
actually it is our traditional building skill. um I would say this kind of technique is widely use in chinese buildings. of course he is one of the professional.
From Lil Giant Would have been nice to say why he built it and how long it took to do so. Could just be a short silent line on the video. Man builds bridge for . . . and it only took . . . weeks! I remember a parable about an old man who came across a wide stream one night. The old man was able to ford the stream, but when he had done so he stopped, and began to build a bridge over it. Later, when he was finished, those who saw what he had done asked why he had done so. It was not his river or his land, but a public byway. He had already crossed and did not need the bridge. The old man answered something to the effect that, “While traveling I saw a youth, who is traveling my way, yet is far behind me. He may, being young and inexperienced, make a slip in the darkness or find the way too long and difficult. I build a bridge for him. I build a bridge for those who come after.”
The old ways live in this very gifted man. I hope he has someone who is interested to learn and understand and have it passed on to them. People like him are a blessing to everyone. I say to this gentleman "you are a master of building" live long, live healthy, live blessed, be at peace and joy.
Hopefully the baby at the end will carry wood for the dad in the middle when he pulls this bridge up like the gramdpa at the beginning with the new trees that need cleared for the garden in the future. :)
Rodger Campell you are stupid, stop trying to kick knowledge and act like you praise this dude. I can build that with a pneumatic air gun and a 12 inch circular table saw in half the time than Mr. MIYAGI
@@paulieramos Grandfather of mine had me helping build houses at 8yrs old. I have a 26 year masters in HVAC-R. I worked heavy industry, industrial plants, chemical factories. I got an engineering degree. I guess the difference between an arrogant self absorbed prick and someone like me who belives in the values of the old ways. Yeah, go use your power tools and your rude behavior and build a great bridge so you can feel impotant when you lack wisdom, skills and manners. Have a good life wonder man✌
my favorite part was the wedges in the hand rail. When it's hammered down it holds the walking slats down and then the wedges spread the wood inside locking it into place. This is absolutely genius!
Yeah, Me too ..... I do admire much about this kind of self - knocking system , what a genius design WITHOUT a piece of nail, just by Inter-locking system like dovetail design !
That Is fantastic !!! Grandpa is a treasure that keeps on giving, when grandpa paases on his skill will be lost I really hope grandson you are learning and watching and his skills pass on to you . He is a TRUE CRAFTSMAN that not many in this world could even hold a candle to ! 👍😉❤

Old construction has always been a passion of mine. It is a lost art that is a shame we are loosing. Old construction techniques are stronger, and last longer. Thank you Grandpa A Mu for sharing your skill so others may learn from it. You are a master of your craft.
What is most amazing to me is the fact that I never saw him use a tape measure. Or for that matter no level, no plumbline, no square, not even a piece of string. I've been a carpenter and woodworker for most of my adult life. I'm 63 years old and after watching this man work I must admit my skills are nothing compared to him. I am thoroughly impressed!
@@AkariLimano at 0:48 bottom of the screen on the quarter left, look closely, this is not he only place, but this one is the most obvious. For this assembly to hold at that moment without any sort of mortise or "slot lines", he either had to use some kind of rope, or nails, or glue... nails it was. Nothing wrong about it, and nothing diminishing his skills, but hey, I have the impression that many people actually overate his skills. He obviously wasn't taught with the utmost precision as we tend to do in the west, just with the right enough precision where it does makes most sense, in a highly functionnal and efficient way. No time to waste sorta spirit, whith hand tools. The dude is amazing and impressive regardless. Just saying that his videos should motivate anyone to actually give it a try, they might be surprised that in the end the most diificult is not necessarly what it might seems at first glance.
Had I had the choice I’d have dropped everything to spent the last 30 years to work under this man . A true wealth of knowledge. No time clock , no drama , no corporate ladder on nonsense
They are preserved mate they're called joiners and carpenters, and the people that design the bridges and structural support are architects and engineers.
Ccp sponsored videos. They are popping up everywhere on UA-cam to give China a better international face. Videos like these are artificial upvoted to become trending. There are a lot of documentry about soft power in China here on UA-cam. This is probably all fake and the bridge isnt used for anything.
Mortis and tendon construction is better than glue and nails or even glue and screws! Thank you for showing such beautiful craftmanship in building an arch bridge🤗
I've built tables with the same 'fox wedged tenons' and then also 'through wedged tenons' and I can tell everyone, if the bridge was wider, you could EASILY drive a 18 wheeler across that, loaded with a bulldozer!! Yet, not an ounce of glue or a single screw or nail used! This is how things need to be done! Astonishingly beautiful!
@@salvadorelmercabotageiii9148 softwood can be very beneficial in this application. Softwoods will flex and bend in situations where hardwood would crack or break.
My grandpa did carpentry as well. We are still using tables and benches he built when he was alive. When I was little, he used work outside of my bedroom window. Each morning I was woken up by the sound of him working on the woods and also the birds' songs. And in summer all the rice fields in front of our house would turn to different shades of green and it was so beautiful. I really miss those days in the countryside.
Utterly amazing to watch how Grandpa Amu built this bridge. Doing it all with hand tools and zero power equipment or glue or nails. This little bridge will be around for all in this mans family to cherish and see the beautiful job their Grandpa Amu has done. After watching this I can see why it has had so many views. My hats off to you Grandpa Amu and I hope your son and others in your family will carry on with what they have learned from you.
I was totally enthralled at this gentleman's expert craftmanship throughout this video, I never once looked at the time, just paying attention to the detail. I could never build something like this and be confident as this man was. I knew he trusted his prowess completely when I observed his grandson walking ahead of him on his completed footbridge, what a masterpiece. I want to say thank you, Sir, for sharing a snapshot of your life with all of us.
I would never have the patience to make those dovetails with hand tools. I could build that bridge with hand tools and no metal fasteners, but it would not have the degree of craftsmanship he put into this project. Very well done.
@Dingleberry jeff of course. I just love the simplicity of the tools he's using. American's bitch if the tool is the wrong color. This dude is using a hatchet that's probably 30 years old to cut and hammer. It's a good change of pace.
Grandpa Amu is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! If you happen to just "FIND" this video in your feed, PLEASE watch others of his!! He truly makes some of the best, most wonderful thing's! And his relationship with the little grandson is SO ADORABLE!! 💜💜💜💜
It's probably because it was used as click bate for advertising. We probably fall somewhere in a Google algorithm that says we will like the content. Kinda makes me feel used too. That being said, I do really like the video.
Problibly cus it comes across as lost art and ancient wisdom, when a 10 yr old can look up on google how to make same thing. Heck in h.s my ckass mates and i would make lots of crap out of wood, and metal. Im not trying to dis on video, but when you can go to library and read up on how to do wood working, and follow instructions like in a lego set.. its not really lost art then. Just a guy building a bridge. That's my opinion on why thier dis likes, i didn't dislike it, he did a good job. Just opinion on what others think is all. Sorry if sound mean.
I have no idea how this got recommended to me, but this is some amazing craftsmanship. Not only that, but this has arguably the best soundtrack of all of the building videos I've ever seen
In another life, or in a parallel universe, I'd love to be his son or grandson so that I could be his apprentice. He has so much love and patience for his wonderful skills. Thank you so much, Sir!
Great plan to get the apprenticeship. Hahahaha Sounds like it might work. Fingers crossed that in another life, you could be this apprentice that you so fervently desire. It sounds like a passion. Talk about going through the backdoor.
I do wood projects all the time for most my life. I am amazed at the craftsmanship of this! Absolutely awesome! As a craftsman to another, I really enjoyed watching you work and learned too. Thank you for sharing.

Yeah...wow! Those little finger wedges he fitted in...first thought was there's no way that's going to be good, but makes a super joint. Bet that bridge is still strong 100 years from now. Good job. I am humbled.
He has a kid (or in-law), who help him off-screen, which is also the father of boy who appear in this and some other videos.. That guy also the one operating the camera, editing it, upload on youtube, and also mantain this channel.
Ah, yes, I adamantly agree with you all concerning this skill being passed on. As I have attend arts and crafts shows most of the booths are attended by what would appear to me to be a senior person, so, in order to perpetuate the skill I have asked some if they are training a young person? And sometimes that young person is assisting in the attendance of the booth, so, they are not only learning the skill but also the business side.
It's known in Japan as Joinery. Not sure if the Chinese has any stark difference but the art itself is surviving ok. Definitely not as well as it should but there are a lot of enthusiasts around the world who learn and use it.
An amazing craftsman in art and beauty. Memorizing to watch his skillful hands create a masterpiece bridge with the most basic of hand tools. Well done Sir.
Damn the end made me tear up. You can see the accomplishment in his face. Him being an older man, I can imagine him wanting to leave pieces of him around so his grandkids can remember him.
I'm a finish carpenter, which means I can start projects, I just can't finish them...thank you for sharing. That guy was great...no nails no electricity...wow !
What...you can start it but not finish. Are you Democrat. Lol seriously I'm a carpenter and I can build anything start to finish. Wait a finisher ...finishes it.
Grandpa Amu is a True Magician! He is showing us all his secrets and are Minds Are Still Blown away by his talent! He is amazing and as cute as a button. I'm so glad his son encouraged him to share his magic with the world, it is such a delight to see. The toys he makes for his grandson are outstanding. 💗💗💗
@@SylvanApe I have to stand by my comment, because to me it is mind blowing and lovely. I've watched him make incredible toys for his grandson and they are very impressive. Hell, I can't do it and even if I could I still like to give people their props because it's cool to see something creative and positive. Plus, the videos are encouraging to give people inspiration to try build something...big or small. But that's my opinion. You are certainly allowed to have your opinion too. I happen to find him magical, that's all. I hope someone in your life finds you magical. I'm sure you have cool talents too. Have a wonderful day 💗
@@dr.100purrscent5 Like I said, it is cool and the man has skills, but... It's just like the 'I can't draw' mentality, holding what he does as something other than skills anyone can acquire is what makes others think they can't do this too. It is a barrier to others trying.
@@SylvanApe I disagree. I think his videos are encouraging. Just because I have never built a mini bridge doesn't mean I don't believe in myself...carpentry isn't my natural skill. I can learn, and with a little guidance I can do a lot. But that's neither here nor there. This isn't about me not believing in myself. I'm good. I am inspired by his talent. I have many talents of my own too. Some people acknowledge them; some people hate on them; but most people don't know about them. As I grow I learn that all 3 sides are just fine, because my only true competition is me. I'm becoming more happy with me everyday, Grandpa Amu seems pretty happy. I guess that is all that matters really. Peace ✌
@@dr.100purrscent5 @Dr. 100 PurrScent "This isn't about me not believing in myself" It's not about you at all, nor was what I said. If you reread my post you will see I am talking about how holding people/skills like this in reverence is a barrier to others trying. It's exactly how ancient societies like stone masons, carpenters, weavers etc used to stop others trying to copy their techniques or even have a go without paying dues. It was always 5% 'magic' that had to be given to you, or inherited. Once people learned that there was only skill, not juju, involved, many more people began to do it themselves. "carpentry isn't my natural skill" And here it is in all its 'I can't draw' glory. It's not a natural skill for anyone, it is a skill-learned and practiced. See, it's insipid in our language and minds - 'He's special' so he can do it, rather than, 'He has developed a skill with the help of others, I can do it too.'
The main thing in this whole story is that grandpa doesn't use nails or screws to connect them, but makes cuts in the wood like so-called "swallow tails", and then the pieces have a tight connection to each other, and did you notice how he fastened the fence posts to the whole bridge, by hammering two little wooden shims at the ends of the pillars, and when driving the pillars into the prepared openings in the construction of the bridge, those shims spread wood from the inside and enable a firm connection of the fence with the bridge construction, of course without nails and screws. This is the core of carpentry, who knows how to watch has something to learn!

Watched this during lockdown. Workmanship is amazing considering that he was using logs that are not completely straight and uneven diameters! Lot of patience in cutting out tongues, grooves and rabbets.
@@invent5540 Its still impressive how well he is fitting those uneven and different logs together perfectly. I have built a lot of shit in my life with wood and also metal and it always takes me a lot of back and forth fitting and tuning before its perfect but this guy just measured everything perfectly even tho his working material is uneven and rough
Reaper of Souls With all of the cuts in the scenes and the ability to edit the video; how can you know that he did this project with just one try? Looks like you are assuming more than what probably actually happened. The project ended up looking like a piece of art.
A totally beautiful construction project, both in craftsmanship and in physical beauty. This was a very complicated project and I salute your skill in constructing it. I think here in the U.S. you would be considered a Master Craftsman.
What a wonderful craftsman with an eye for engineering. May Grandpa live a long healthy life making more amazing things. Thank you for sharing your video.

What do you mean by the old ways? If you're talking about his carpentry skills, as a carpenter's apprentice I can say for certain that that level of expertise is what's still being taught. I don't mean to say he's not good or something. He didn't use a single power tool. I just mean that it's not be any means the old way
@@Matthew23and12KJV im not trying to offend, like I said I'm just stating that it's not the old way since carpenter's are still taught to do things like this, It's just THE way. And I certainly didn't disagree with her complement. Like I said, he didn't use a single power tool, that in itself is a very tough feat considering his age
T Mo and exactly this is what is STILL the way you learn it as a carpenter! just because you think its old and not done anymore it does not mean it is!
I recall that as a child, my grandpa from China would come over every two or three years. Dude as an absolute beast in wood work and gardening. He made all his tools by hand, and actually forged the metal parts himself. He made us beds, chairs, replaced our doors, etc. I don’t recall that he ever used a single nail or screw, but solely relied on wood working techniques. When I asked him how he got so good, he said he spent his childhood in the 1940s and 50s learning how to work wood. Some people obtain these old skills because they grew up in rural areas and had to hand make things by themselves, so knowledge was passed on through the generations.

all that work, and likely the best part for him was his grandson walking across it.
As an oldster, visiting the zoo seems very much a pain in the ass, but to take a kid to the zoo and see it through THEIR eyes is a kick.
He put him there to test the bridge. If it fails at the very least it was just some random kid he nabbed off the street just for this very reason.

What is most amazing to me is the fact that I never saw him use a tape measure. Or for that matter no level, no plumbline, no square, not even a piece of string. I've been a carpenter and woodworker for most of my adult life. I'm 63 years old and after watching this man work I must admit my skills are nothing compared to him. I am thoroughly impressed!
Maybe it was edited, but I like to think of this man as a wood ninja no matter ;)
@Baby Lon He did use nails... but just for previewing the central structure at the beginning of the video
@@nlight8769 where do you see nails? Around 0:50 there are only pencil marks.
Impressive work! Strong and beautiful!!!
That must be ancient technology for sure!
@@AkariLimano at 0:48 bottom of the screen on the quarter left, look closely, this is not he only place, but this one is the most obvious.
For this assembly to hold at that moment without any sort of mortise or "slot lines", he either had to use some kind of rope, or nails, or glue... nails it was. Nothing wrong about it, and nothing diminishing his skills, but hey, I have the impression that many people actually overate his skills. He obviously wasn't taught with the utmost precision as we tend to do in the west, just with the right enough precision where it does makes most sense, in a highly functionnal and efficient way. No time to waste sorta spirit, whith hand tools.
The dude is amazing and impressive regardless. Just saying that his videos should motivate anyone to actually give it a try, they might be surprised that in the end the most diificult is not necessarly what it might seems at first glance.
Very nice bridge. Very good video to watch and learn and I have learned alot from your watching your works. Thank alot grandpa Mu.
Skilled carpenter.
No design drawings, only the most basic tools, and the bridge turned out to be so beautifully proportioned. What a master craftsman and an artist!

There are a lot of documentry about soft power in China here on UA-cam. This is probably all fake and the bridge isnt used for anything.
老工匠的手藝真的很棒令人敬佩
Mortis and tendon construction is better than glue and nails or even glue and screws! Thank you for showing such beautiful craftmanship in building an arch bridge🤗
I've built tables with the same 'fox wedged tenons' and then also 'through wedged tenons' and I can tell everyone, if the bridge was wider, you could EASILY drive a 18 wheeler across that, loaded with a bulldozer!! Yet, not an ounce of glue or a single screw or nail used! This is how things need to be done! Astonishingly beautiful!

My grandpa did carpentry as well. We are still using tables and benches he built when he was alive. When I was little, he used work outside of my bedroom window. Each morning I was woken up by the sound of him working on the woods and also the birds' songs. And in summer all the rice fields in front of our house would turn to different shades of green and it was so beautiful. I really miss those days in the countryside.

I was totally enthralled at this gentleman's expert craftmanship throughout this video, I never once looked at the time, just paying attention to the detail. I could never build something like this and be confident as this man was. I knew he trusted his prowess completely when I observed his grandson walking ahead of him on his completed footbridge, what a masterpiece. I want to say thank you, Sir, for sharing a snapshot of your life with all of us.
I would never have the patience to make those dovetails with hand tools. I could build that bridge with hand tools and no metal fasteners, but it would not have the degree of craftsmanship he put into this project. Very well done.

It's probably because it was used as click bate for advertising. We probably fall somewhere in a Google algorithm that says we will like the content. Kinda makes me feel used too. That being said, I do really like the video.
Problibly cus it comes across as lost art and ancient wisdom, when a 10 yr old can look up on google how to make same thing. Heck in h.s my ckass mates and i would make lots of crap out of wood, and metal. Im not trying to dis on video, but when you can go to library and read up on how to do wood working, and follow instructions like in a lego set.. its not really lost art then.

Grandpa Amu, that was absolutely brilliant. The self wedging posts was the coolest think I have seen in years.
Yeah...wow! Those little finger wedges he fitted in...first thought was there's no way that's going to be good, but makes a super joint. Bet that bridge is still strong 100 years from now. Good job. I am humbled.
I hope he has young apprentices so that his skills can be passed on.
Most Chinese farmers are moving to live in urban areas now. But it would be sad if this art is not passed down to the future generations.
He has a kid (or in-law), who help him off-screen, which is also the father of boy who appear in this and some other videos..
That guy also the one operating the camera, editing it, upload on youtube, and also mantain this channel.
Ah, yes, I adamantly agree with you all concerning this skill being passed on. As I have attend arts and crafts shows most of the booths are attended by what would appear to me to be a senior person, so, in order to perpetuate the skill I have asked some if they are training a young person? And sometimes that young person is assisting in the attendance of the booth, so, they are not only learning the skill but also the business side.
@Aconite sucks, should be guilds to ensure the true skilled craftsman get paid. Same reason why grocery store bread is the norm not the exception.
It's known in Japan as Joinery. Not sure if the Chinese has any stark difference but the art itself is surviving ok. Definitely not as well as it should but there are a lot of enthusiasts around the world who learn and use it.
No nails,No rope,No strings,No joining brackets and No machinery tools...

I'm so glad his son encouraged him to share his magic with the world, it is such a delight to see. The toys he makes for his grandson are outstanding. 💗💗💗
I agree its cool to have this on YT, but this is basic engineering, not secrets and no one should have their mind blown by it.
@@SylvanApe I have to stand by my comment, because to me it is mind blowing and lovely. I've watched him make incredible toys for his grandson and they are very impressive. Hell, I can't do it and even if I could I still like to give people their props because it's cool to see something creative and positive. Plus, the videos are encouraging to give people inspiration to try build something...big or small. But that's my opinion. You are certainly allowed to have your opinion too. I happen to find him magical, that's all. I hope someone in your life finds you magical. I'm sure you have cool talents too. Have a wonderful day 💗
@@dr.100purrscent5 Like I said, it is cool and the man has skills, but...
It's just like the 'I can't draw' mentality, holding what he does as something other than skills anyone can acquire is what makes others think they can't do this too. It is a barrier to others trying.
@@SylvanApe I disagree. I think his videos are encouraging. Just because I have never built a mini bridge doesn't mean I don't believe in myself...carpentry isn't my natural skill. I can learn, and with a little guidance I can do a lot. But that's neither here nor there. This isn't about me not believing in myself. I'm good. I am inspired by his talent. I have many talents of my own too. Some people acknowledge them; some people hate on them; but most people don't know about them. As I grow I learn that all 3 sides are just fine, because my only true competition is me. I'm becoming more happy with me everyday, Grandpa Amu seems pretty happy. I guess that is all that matters really. Peace ✌
@@dr.100purrscent5 @Dr. 100 PurrScent "This isn't about me not believing in myself"
It's not about you at all, nor was what I said.
If you reread my post you will see I am talking about how holding people/skills like this in reverence is a barrier to others trying. It's exactly how ancient societies like stone masons, carpenters, weavers etc used to stop others trying to copy their techniques or even have a go without paying dues. It was always 5% 'magic' that had to be given to you, or inherited. Once people learned that there was only skill, not juju, involved, many more people began to do it themselves.
"carpentry isn't my natural skill"
And here it is in all its 'I can't draw' glory.
It's not a natural skill for anyone, it is a skill-learned and practiced. See, it's insipid in our language and minds - 'He's special' so he can do it, rather than, 'He has developed a skill with the help of others, I can do it too.'
The main thing in this whole story is that grandpa doesn't use nails or screws to connect them, but makes cuts in the wood like so-called "swallow tails", and then the pieces have a tight connection to each other, and did you notice how he fastened the fence posts to the whole bridge, by hammering two little wooden shims at the ends of the pillars, and when driving the pillars into the prepared openings in the construction of the bridge, those shims spread wood from the inside and enable a firm connection of the fence with the bridge construction, of course without nails and screws. This is the core of carpentry, who knows how to watch has something to learn!

I recall that as a child, my grandpa from China would come over every two or three years. Dude as an absolute beast in wood work and gardening. He made all his tools by hand, and actually forged the metal parts himself. He made us beds, chairs, replaced our doors, etc. I don’t recall that he ever used a single nail or screw, but solely relied on wood working techniques. When I asked him how he got so good, he said he spent his childhood in the 1940s and 50s learning how to work wood. Some people obtain these old skills because they grew up in rural areas and had to hand make things by themselves, so knowledge was passed on through the generations.
