If I could ever learn that craft, I would have to keep working nonstop until it was done. If I stopped to take a break or sleep, it would take me days to figure out which string to braid next. LOL
When one cannot tie a proper knot such as I the appreciation is tenfold plus i operated loom nothing like this it loud and mechanical but fun learning I make nice soft cotton blanket for the fun of it all besides i only guy in class
Been watching quite a lot of these videos on wood,now mill work ,you guys are very talented, no mater what it is anything made by man not machine is warm to the touch keep up the excellent work🤗🖖👌
English captions would also be *_nice,_* (notice the extra emphasis on "nice", meaning not necessary) But just watching intently is enough for me c: Edit: 6:04 - 10:56 *_HNNNNGHFFFFFFFFGGGHHHHHLLLLLFFFGGHJJJAAAAAAHHH THEY CHANGE THE SHOT EVERY TIME HE ALTERNATES THE THREADS AND MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE/A PAIN TO FIGURE OUT IF THERE'S AN EASIER/FASTER WAY TO DO IT_* Anyway, after rewatching the segment and intensely scrutinizing everything thing he does dozens of times, if i'm at least understanding the basic concept of how it's done, there doesn't appear to be a faster/easier way to alternate the threads without completely redesigning the table into 68 (or more) individual treadle actuated posts that raise and lower in an alternating pattern that secures the threads with hooks so that they can easily be removed for threading/weaving.

I have two questions about this. 1: Is there any chance you could maybe do an episode about whoever builds those Kumihimo looms, and 2: Is there any chance you might consider having English narration for your videos? (I mean, I'll do it for you if you want, just give me a script, but I suspect you'd get a lot of volunteers if you asked!). I think you would get a lot more people watching if they could understand better what was going on. Or, if not narrated, at least have English commentary below the Japanese writing on the page when it comes up.

I thought that Samurai were the Protectors of the Shogun and or emperor and ninjas were assassins that practice ninjutsu. A ninjas sword of choice would be something like our Wusashi with no curvature completely straight and a samurai carried three a katana a Wusashi and the blade that use for seppuku if they were ordered to perform this by their master. Ninjas and the Art of ninjutsu were practiced to use as little effort, and sneaky tactics to kill their mark. Samurai were considered very honorable ninjas were quite hated because they did not face their opponents on equal ground.
Japan does indeed have a very rich culture but richest would discredit others. There are plenty of cultures that remain preserved by craftspeople. Middle East has manage to preserve much off their crafts. Native American culture is widely preserved as well. I think the fact that the Japanese government is actively taking a part in trying to preserve it is what makes the country seem more cultured.
all modern machines that you mentioned are available in Japan. We just want to keep the traditional products and their techniques light on modern life.
A wonderful craft. The skill and exacting weave ha given history a place in modern day. Thank-you for showing this craft.
our pleasure
If I could ever learn that craft, I would have to keep working nonstop until it was done. If I stopped to take a break or sleep, it would take me days to figure out which string to braid next. LOL
Now that's an art form that really is incredible. The complexity of this art is mind boggling. Magnificent work. 👍🏻🇦🇺😁
Thank you so much 😀
Just amazing... The skill required is mind blowing... Thanks for sharing.. :)
our pleasure!
😎🤙very, very cool. Amazing focus with beautiful results!
O Lord... WOW . RESPECT 🙏
I hate UA-cam's Closed Caption policy.

Thanks 👍
Wow so well done, not the sort of job you can crack the shits with lmao Really is a great channel with true masters of their crafts.
Concentración,Dedicación,Perfección ,todas las instrucciones seguidas al pie de la letra ,miles de combinaciones un solo resultado...
Wow😮
Un trabajo increíble

But just watching intently is enough for me c:
Edit: 6:04 - 10:56 *_HNNNNGHFFFFFFFFGGGHHHHHLLLLLFFFGGHJJJAAAAAAHHH THEY CHANGE THE SHOT EVERY TIME HE ALTERNATES THE THREADS AND MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE/A PAIN TO FIGURE OUT IF THERE'S AN EASIER/FASTER WAY TO DO IT_*
Anyway, after rewatching the segment and intensely scrutinizing everything thing he does dozens of times, if i'm at least understanding the basic concept of how it's done, there doesn't appear to be a faster/easier way to alternate the threads without completely redesigning the table into 68 (or more) individual treadle actuated posts that raise and lower in an alternating pattern that secures the threads with hooks so that they can easily be removed for threading/weaving.
Edit2: or an easier way would be to just have 2 pedals that lead to hooks that raise, spin and grab the threads, (which I believe is something that was within the "technological/engineering" means of the Edo period since automatons were being built during that period.

Oh, that dang music! Perlease!
yeah, sorry about that!

Обожаю Ваши видео !!!
I have two questions about this.
1: Is there any chance you could maybe do an episode about whoever builds those Kumihimo looms,
and
2: Is there any chance you might consider having English narration for your videos? (I mean, I'll do it for you if you want, just give me a script, but I suspect you'd get a lot of volunteers if you asked!).

Well, that really drew me to the scene, thank you kindly. I'll look carefully at these things as you wanted to run by me. Leave a Gmail please!

Talk soon...
They’re probably made by the end user themselves.
isso sim é ter paciência pois eu nem consigo ver o vídeo inteiro kkk
tbm
Ничего не понимаю, но японских мастеров уважаю!
Интересно!!!
Decades to perfect the craft but can’t find an hour to overdub in English...
Jim King I agree, at least put captions if you don't want to overdub...
Why not spend a few decades to learn Japanese?
you cant understand the language of craft?
@@mafurock33 No, I’ll just continue to sell German language cookbooks in Korea ands wonder why I don’t make any money
Damnmmmn mama is fiiiiiine 😍

"Young man", if he was born in 197 he isn't exactly what i'd call young.
LRJ88 ...wait till you hit seventy, then tell us what you think is young.
John Martlew when i hit 70 i'll still be a toddler to someone born in 197. They'd be almost 2,000 years old.
how rich Japanese culture is, I believe the richest in the world🥀
WOW, Thank you very much!

Best material know to man is the stuff ikea bag is made from.
Guy doesn’t look that old.
Specially for being over a thousand years old.
It's a family operation. He's the son.
There would be a knot and an open door.
👍🏻🇪🇨
Great video but crappy narrative...!
shame on me, sorry about that
Real craftsmanship, but at the end of the day, I hate to say it, pretty pointless stuff.
yeah sorry for that!
It's not pointless
A machine can do that lickety split. Why do japanese pick the most labor intensive and hardest way to so ANYTHING? aND CALL IT ART?
all modern machines that you mentioned are available in Japan. We just want to keep the traditional products and their techniques light on modern life.
It is art!
Because japan is fucking awesome at doing its original shit. They do it because they can. You salt licker .
Because it is art. Machines are imperfect, and to let traditional arts die out simply because a machine can do it is silly.
