Here here!

Thanks sir. Just look at each mistake as a chance to learn and make some new accidental beauty

AvE is the man. I'm not on his level, just a lowly woodworker.

Yeah I should've tapered these a slight bit. Stay persistent!

Thanks sir

Thanks Sir, and thanks for watching. One can never have too many planing boards.

Thanks sir

Thanks for watching, truth is, anything that's really made by hand will have mistakes. Those mistakes are what creates the warmth of a hand made piece of furniture or anything really. Never worry about the minutia, life is meant to be lived out not stressed out.

Thanks for watching sir, glad to be of service

Agreed! I really liked so see the growth and learning contained in one video. When I see problem solving in action it trains my brain to look at things a different way.

Thanks sir!

Thanks sir

Thanks sir

Thanks sir, and thanks for watching

Thanks sir

Easily my new favourite comment. Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching!

Nature provides the best sound effects

Thanks, I actually had a router plane in the tool box the entire time I was building this. My head exploded when I realized it because I had already finished the board.

Thanks sir, fixing a dovetail with another dovetail, irony.

Thanks sir

They do exist. I haven't seen a Japanese made one in person, just in pictures.

Thanks sir, and thanks for watching

Thanks for watching. There's a good deal of maintenance that goes on with kanna. You flatten the bottom but you also cut some relief into it. They're designed to work better with this relief in the sole. For a single blade it can usually go through many dai (the wooden body) before it's used up.

You're right I didn't give the spec. They're 8/4 thick and the total length came out to 24" . Width is just under 12". Thanks for watching sir.

Thanks sir, there are wise men all around us. You just never know who might have a tidbit for you. As far as a plane goes, there's a style of plane called a Wakitori kanna that is capable of cutting the mortise section of a sliding dovetail. For the tenon section it's really pretty easy to pare it down if you have a wide chisel. That would be a cool invention though, would save alot of time.

Hmmm....sounds like a possible video...I might look up some plane making things. Continue the good work sir! Editing this comment to show you this video, dovetail planes for mortices and tenons the first 3 minutes of the video shows you the result, wonderful stuff: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ec2lecuHz5OzdY0.html

Look at dojo woodworking for discussion of japanese handplanes , hida . and japan woodworker, or woodcraft

Thanks for watching sir. For a first plane I don't recommend the ones on Amazon from makers like Senkichi. They require a HUGE amount of work to get good results out of. A good first plane should be slightly on the expensive side. Good kanna are far easier to tune and they don't require acts of god to get good results. Plus when it's a good plane you can grow into it. Check out suzuki tool for some good planes. They have some in the 150ish USD range that are great for beginners. Get a narrower one for your first, wider ones are tough to get used to especially if you've never done it before. One in the 45-58mm range should work well for you.

Paper towel?

I actually have a router plane. My brain didn't turn on until after I'd finished all three dovetails to remind me that it was in the toolbox the whole time. And yes tapered sliding dovetails are awesome, might try them in the future.

It's a copy from the design in Toshio Odate's book.

@@Lemongrasspicker I'm definitely going to use this design when I get the time to make one!

I actually have a router plane. My head exploded when I realized it had been in the toolbox the whole time, of course this was after I had completed the entire board. Bowling with these gents would be fun, a bit challenging but fun.

almost forgot. Thanks for watching

You are very welcome. An interesting and informative KZfaq video has a lot of components. 1) the crafter must know their stuff. You do. 2) they must be engaging and infuse the video with a little humor. You do. 3) the camera and editing must be comfortable to watch. It is. I made a Japanese Cutting Gauge because of your video. It doesn't work really well, but I had a lot of fun building it. I plan to make your style of Japanese Saw Horses and a tool box. They will fit my cutting style and the box is a neat design. Hate the saw bench. One can never have enough boxes. I look forward to more of your videos.

Check out Hida tool in California about a starter one. They know their stuff

@@Lemongrasspicker Appreciate that, and the new shop looks awesome... Looking foward to the guitar vids, my son's are into the guitars..👍🏻🎩🎩

If you have a sliding dovetail plane then yes. I didnt when I made this though so I had to make do

On some joinery absolutely. With a sliding dovetail though it makes the depth kind of screwy and it's very easy to cut it out of alignment.

You could and it wouldn't hurt anything.

You're the first actually lol I think my voice is reminiscent of a frog honestly. Thanks for the compliment and for watching!

reminds me of Mustie1

I just looked him up and subbed to his channel. Thanks for the heads up on him

You line it up with your bench stop and make sure you hold your plane square. You can make a shooting board for it it just needs to function on the pull stroke instead of the push stroke like a western plane would.

Gracias Enriquea

The end broke because I didn't fit the dovetail well enough. The trick is to make the most of mistakes when they happen, because they will always happen.

Thank YOU for watching

I do not. Stuck on a mainland sadly.

Each woodworker is different in their approach.
