Wood Troubles Me. A Splendid Floor Table made of 200-year-old Kiso Cypress is Built[Carpenter’s DIY]

- It’s been a while since I did DIY.
When I went to the lumberyard, I found interesting wood, so I built a floor table out of it.
I have seldom used Kiso cypress before, and I found that it is a totally different quality than ordinary Japanese cypress. The growth rings are delicately beautiful. It’s valuable wood.

Hello, Tom here. I am a computer engineer that retired after 43 years, 8 months, and 14 days working for the same company. I think this is my favorite episode since I started watching your channel. Without question, my favorite part was watching you laugh! You have a very expressive face so sometimes I think I know how you are feeling even without your words. 😄 I think one of the most important indicators of the exceptional craftsman is the way he cares for his tools. I always get a huge smile on my face when I watch you caring for and sharpening your chisels! The obvious care taken when putting them away until the next time they are needed. I have been accused of being a number of things, but a carpenter was never one of them. Thank you for both educating and entertaining me! I understand that bowing in Japan can be used to signify emotions, including appreciation, respect, and gratitude. Please accept a virtual bow from me...
Don’t think I’d call it a DIY project if a master carpenter does it 😂
I wouldn’t say this guy is a diyer as he actually brands his projects
What??
Beautiful table I would love to own anything this man makes he puts so much work into his projects an it shows
I tried to make this point on his last “DIY” project. I wonder if it’s a translation issue? He is literally doing it himself but maybe they don’t get that DIY means amateurs. (And I have zero Japanese … this is not a slight on their very good English skills.)
Love the channel. I especially dig the way he goes for light and fast over big and strong in tools and clothes.
To be exact, Do It Yourself (DIY) is taking on a job you are not trained to do. I think he means it is Do It For Himself.
This channel is such a gem. Craftsmanship like this needs to be more widespread.
Indubitably! Respect to Shoyan for his Video efforts and craftsmanship.
We're out here, doin our thing... At our own pace.
What I would do to apprentice from such a teacher! Incredible craftsmanship!
@@joduval Correct! Even if it was just an afternoon. I'd sponge it all up. :)
"You struggled for this one chip."
I really felt that.
A beautiful table, beautiful workmanship, and beautiful tools.
I really enjoyed getting to watch and listen to Shoyan and the gentleman assisting him. The joking back and forth about holding it for 15 minutes really reminded me of learning from my father when I was a young apprentice.
Possibly one his most humble, reverent, charming videos yet. "Can I bring you a coffee!?" 😂
this is such a pleasure to watch do it right the first time, perfection sir
This is a nice table made from a nice wood. I also like that this video has more of Shoyan-san own voice.
The wealth of knowledge from this man about his trade is a real gift.. My father and grandfather had similar dedication to doing their best with wood projects..
Thank you..
Zen in the art of simple DIY splendid floor table Making. As usual, Master and apprentice Shoyan surpass all expectations, with sublime skill and timber knowledge. Domo Arigato.
Could you show a quick segment on the different marking instruments you use and how you sharpen your pencils so perfectly? I love watching your videos, a real master at work, its fascinating to watch you.
Two great tips implicit in this video:
- A handsaw (especially a Japanese pull saw) is often faster than a power tool.
- A sheet of rigid foam is invaluable as a platfork for the Skilsaw. It provides perfect support, withstands a bunch of cuts before it’s no good, and is super light.
And that foam won't scratch your wood!
I saw that in a short and the carpenter had been using the sheet he had for 3 years. If you keep your cuts shallow, you can flip it over and use the other side.
Very satisfying beauty in the large nots! You can do finish work on all my tables - you know what to use and why you made that choice.😊
In Japan a practitioner of this talent rises to the level of “National Treasure”. Artisan.
Shoyan, you are the best!
Shoyan, I love to see you smiling and laughing as you held that repair in place. Glad you’re having fun while you do this wonderful work.
What a gem this channel is now I can't stop watching all of it!!!
The table is beautiful. Stay safe.
you gotta love a good bit of timber 📦📥📤✏⛩🗾🗻🪵🪵
I am more impressed by repair of the chip than by entire build of table.
He did a better job than some people who call themselves furniture makers
Use of "DIY" is very generous in this situation.... guy is amazing.
Wow. When I say DIY it's an excuse for error, but this is truly a master piece.
That is some beautiful wood with very tight growth rings. Great craftsmanship, as usual, in the construction of this floor table.
First time I witnessed wood surgery. Amazing how seamlessly you patched that gap.
Arigatō, Such a beautiful table. The cypress is beautifully marked. But your craftsmanship is what brings it to light.
Shoyan san, Truly Superb Job!
I bow to you sir
I like how the knots are considered a good thing of the wood because their uniqueness.
Usually in Italy people consider knots a defect of the wood, I like them because they make a slab of wood unique and are decorative.
Those thin long shavings from hand plane are evidence how sharp that plane is and how well it is being used. What a joy to watch!
Nice job, Ienjoyed watching the project !
beautiful video, i really enjoyed this :D
Beautiful 👍
The way you handled that chip speaks volumes about you Shoyan.....ha ha !!! great job!
I love that you show your mistakes (like fitting the Dovetail). Seeing that the masters don't do everything perfectly the first try is so inspiring for those trying to get better.
Gotta say, these videos always get me motivated. Thanks for sharing Shoyan!
Such a rare art and dedication. Our world needs such discipline.
I'm fluent in fish metaphors keep em coming
Beautiful craftsmanship and such a joy to watch this artist work his magic
love the timber you are using
Exceptionally beautiful wood, beautiful slab. I would never have thought that cypress could have such intense colors of knots in opposition to the delicate shade of the trunk.
I write to my memory "Kiso cypress", but without much hope that it will be possible bought in my country.
I was very surprised when you mentioned imperfections in the video. In my opinion, the table is made in such a way that even the greatest master would have no reason to be ashamed.
To help your wood from sliding with wet glue add just a pinch of table salt to a few areas, then when wet glued wood is put together salt will bite into grain stopping the slide
I’ve seen this. It works. At first I thought it was someone making fun of Salt Bae.
Amazing work my friend!!! Great video!!!
Very nice craftsmanship. I enjoyed watching
美しい芸術作品。 共有してくれてありがとう！
I love all the precision work with filling in the chip at the edge! I build guitars as a hobby, and whenever something goes wrong (the wood chips or cracks unexpectedly for instance) the repairwork is almost more enjoyable than the actual build, as you get to challenge yourself with how to hide the imperfection as neatly as possible. I am truly amazed by your skills and the gorgeous wood you work with!
Amazing simple yet absplutely beautiful :O
この木はとても美しいでした。
I think your greatest skill is that you're incredibly patient. We can all learn that from you. Not to mention, going from construction, to finish carpentry, then to fine furniture making is incredibly difficult! There is so much to know for each. Many kudos!
Amazing 👍
Very very nice work as always 👌👍💯
これは驚くべきことだ！この完璧主義には驚かされる。同じレベルの職人がもっと増えればいいのに。このチャンネルには感服する。もし日本で家を建てる機会があれば、どこで専門家を探せばいいかわかる！あなたの経験を分かち合ってくれてありがとう。
This one was especially good. I enjoyed the parts where they were speaking Japanese (just the right amount), it helped to understand the subject better. I also gained some tool knowledge, thank you.
I laughed in great joy when you did the comparison of the wood to the fish. As a chef I have worked with a lot of those fish and when you said it I immediately understood what you meant haha.
Great Teacher
❤
We are watching a gifted and talented MASTER craftsman. Love these videos Sir, thank you.
I love hearing the original voices in this video
I am always in awe of your craftsmanship and patience! Thank you for sharing your work with us.
as a furniture builder I think you did a terrific job, especially with that repair. Urethane is tricky by hand, easier with a spray gun once you get the hang of it.
Very nice job as always.
3:00 never seen a joiner/ planer before old and big cool
Fish comparesment is on point. Keep going. And thank you.
Nice video.
You explained and showed it very well well! 👍🏻
Guess that the Kiso region is a colder region and that's why the Kiso cypress grows so slowly (10 cm - about 100 years).
Nice greetings from Germany
I'd have that table in my lounge in a flash!!!!
You are so picky, a perfectionist, I think it is just beautiful. 😄
Mesmerising. And those planes - incredible quality and workmanship.
Beautiful work. I love this peice
Stunning work 😊😊😊
Great video, thank you for sharing it.
Beautiful table! Well done. Wonderful, informative and entertaining episode!
Humorous presentation shows human side we can all relate to.
❤️🇺🇸👍 Master of wood working
Beautiful table, love the knots and live edge !!!! Especially the large one in the middle !!!!
Thanks for teaching me!
It’s always a pleasure to watch you work and appreciate your undoubted skills Shoyan.👍👍
I enjoy watching this top notch craftsman doing his work. A true inspiration
Every tool is sharp and efficient even the pencil. This man is no joke lol

Beautiful work as always! I really like that you sawed the Joints by hand and used hand planes too.
What a Blessing to have him show us what Takumi is!! Truly a MASTER Craftsman!! Domo Arigato Shoyan-sama!!

Merci pour la vidéo !
Beautiful! 🍀
While I do appreciate the English translation, hearing Shoyan's voice was so great!
Looking good to me, thanks for sharing this
Very beautiful table
I always spend a pleasant and relaxing time watching your videos. keep up the good work!!!
Magnificent work,, as always !
German Hard Wax Oil finish, is what I would have used.
It look beautiful with the knots. Many thanks for the vid.
It's very nice to hear your voice and the table looks amazing!
You are such a joy to watch. I love every part of your videos, and by every little detail I can tell, you not only love but also respect the work pieces and the wood itself. I am currently studying the art of cabinetmakery and joinery to one day become a true craftman myself, and every time I watch your videos, I get the instant hurry in my guts to go and create something out of wood. This channel and Ishitani Furniture are the best things on UA-cam.
