  • The Japanese Timber Frame Blacksmith Shop gets Yakisugi (焼杉) Board and Batten Siding by Mr Chickadee, in this video we show our process to install siding on our new blacksmith shop.
    Boards are yellow pine, attached with batten pressure as in the traditional older Amish tradition. Bottoms of the building are burned with a hand torch then oiled with a mix of pine tar and natural drying oils.

      it's not a flame thrower it's a roofing torch. like it's all in the name, flame thrower have an incendiary fluid like napalm which they shoot out, (flame throwing). this however is a much more delicate method of burning the surface of the wood to obtain a charred finish which is then sealed with oil based finish.

    that oil mixture is called "boat soup" in wooden boatbuilding, variations of it used in many different places. using raw linseedoil its used under flooring and other places you dont come in contact with but need to be waterproof, and where the non-hardening ability is advantageous. seen people dump gallons of down in the keelson, so it coats everything by itself when the boat moves around. just a turpentine and linseed oil mixture is a very common first coat if you intend to use linseed oil products on top as it soaks in well but also binds well with other linseed products. old boats smell of turpentine, linseed oil and pine tar for a reason!

    • @Thoracius
      @Thoracius 4 роки тому +6

      When reading up on linseed oil, I keep coming across people warning to not use it in places that get wet because it will mold. This seems ridiculous to me considering that back in the day it was used all over the place. I presume the pine tar in the mix will prevent mold. But in general is there any merit to the mold claims?

    awesome! you might be the first person in the 21st century youtube world to show folks how to PROPERLY install board and batten using the batten as the primary board fastener. Allowing the boards to shrink or expand without cracking etc by not nailing both sides of the board onto the horizontal beams. Drives me nuts to see crews nailing both sides of every board off....
    and it is the most fastener efficient way to side a structure. Yay!

I really liked what you had to say about tools from the beginning of the 20th century being the ones you try to find/use. Could you do a video talking about what you look for to determine that? Styles, Designs or Brands? Some things are obvious when they have a date stamped but very few I've found at flea market or ebay have that or when they do they're being sold as collectors items making them out of my price range.

    I've seen this charring method done to boards before they were installed and was wondering if this is the traditional Japanese method.I like the aesthetics of the transition from black to brown.It reminds me of the outline of the top of the forest against the sky.The addition of the preservative also gave the foundation stones a richer pallet of colours.This will be another handsome building when completed which doesn't surprise me since you seem to have an eye for simplistic artistry in wood construction of many types.👍And oh yes,thanks for the addition of the closed captioning option,l didn't notice the planks were free floating until I rewatched with the c.c.enabled.You can tell I'm no carpenter!😃

    • @Thoracius

      Same here with sassafrass, very hard to come by. I'm an arborist and was fortunate enough to clear cut a large area 2 years ago, yielding thousands of logs. Most are under 16" so prime for hand splitting, cut offs are all firewood in the end. Wouldn't be anything to send you a box full of cutoffs for making handles, small parts etc, if they'd be of use to you. It's all firewood otherwise.

      Check on a bow forum for some Bowers near you, they make wonderful bows!

    I would love to see a list of the antique hand tools that you have and think are needed!

    You are pushing the brain limits of enthusiastic wood workers.💪🏻👍🏻 I did a kitchen counter top and chairs with Japanese Sumi ( myn is Chinese but same ink) ink and Osmo Polyx oil , its as pretty as burning and a lot less work ( if its agianst bugs i dont know, i would think not , but have a try) it is all natural.

    Very well behaved boards, mine always topple over.
