It's a pleasure to watch your precision work. I am a trained carpenter and I appreciate your professional work, thank you. Graham UK

From a finisher carpenter in the States it’s such a pleasure watching an accomplished Carpenter in all aspects of the trade! Hats off !

The 7 1/4 inch Makita circular saw is a carpenters classic. I've had one for 30 years.

As a retired woodworker/machinist, it's a pleasure to watch someone build a staircase using old school techniques. I used to groove my risers to accept the treads, then wedge and screw them. As a sidenote for those who aren't in the trade, if one step is even only 3-4 ml taller than all the others (which it shouldn't be, but it happens), people will trip on it every time they use the stairs going up, so accustomed are we to how a staircase should feel. I learned that the hard way when I had to repair one such staircase in a yacht many years ago. My only question is why you don't use a jig and a router to groove the stringers for the treads, it's a lot quicker, cleaner, and you only have to square the back corners off when you're done. In any case, great video, and a nice staircase to boot! :) P.S. A Makita circular saw still going after 40 years!!! Unbelievable!!

I’ve learned a lot from you. I specifically do stairs by trade and frequently go back to your videos to rewatch on my spare time.

Beautiful staircase. I hope the customer appreciates all your hard work. You are a truly gifted craftsman. Stay safe.

I have never ever seen the attention to detail that Shoyan puts into his work, like smearing glue onto the risers to prevent later splitting. I used to make shoji screens and fusuma, which require a high level of accuracy, but your detail blows me away! I'm grateful to be able to learn from your videos. Thank you.

Did anyone else drool a little when he said his saw is 40 years old?

You are a master. Peers can only walk in the shadows of your accomplishments. Myself included.

Here is a person that takes great pride in what he does.

Here in the USA, I bought my Makita tools ~1985 and they're still in good working condition.

I built my home, with stairway in Hawaii in 1980 using the very same techniques. The stairs were 16 rise, located in exterior location of 120" rainfall per year. I used 3- 4 x 4 gapped per tread, mortising everything into 4 x 12 jacks. 42 years later the stairs are still in great shape, used daily.

The attention to detail is what brings me back to your videos. I'm a beginning woodworker and it is ALWAYS good to see how a master does it. Thank you!!

i have never seen something so cool like the super surfacer

whoah that super surfacer? So basically a super sharp planer that forces the wood past it?

I'd love to own the house when it's finished. The care and skill that has been put into building it is amazing.

Excellent craftsmanship as always. Thanks for sharing.

Old master does construction like a piano builder. I here for it! 💪🙌 Beautiful work.

As an amateur cabinet maker, I truly appreciate your skill and methods of work. Thank you for sharing them with us.

You sir, are a credit to your profession, excellent craftsmanship. Thank you for the video.

No matter how many times I have watched you doing stairs installing I never get bored looking forward to seeing another house built and seeing it finished and we get a walk around it. 😀👍👍

Beautiful work and attention to detail sir. You are a master. What impresses me is your mental focus and what I’d term “intention” … every process well planned and executed with minimum wasted motion. Side note - I want one of those handheld dado-of-death cutters (your “groover”). Very tough to come by in the USA 😅.

Let’s hope the occupants appreciate the extreme craftsmanship here.

Sharpest plane and chisel and don’t forget the pencil fabulous workmanship.

It's great when you tell us something about your tools, both the electric and manual tools. In Japan and Australia you really have some quality Makita tools, here where I live (Scandinavia) we only have the cheap-lousy Makita machines; no chainmorticer and no tapping machines.

Much respect to you, sir, from the United States of America

you know you're a true craftsman when you make look so easy and that is what you do thanks

Смотреть на такую работу одно удовольствие . 🪓🪚🔨

I like him he’s precise !

Oufff. Learned much with this video!

I assume 'lazy' is a Japanese word for amazingly talented- I wish I was half as lazy as you because you are so skilled and make the highest quality finish look so easy to achieve. I'm building my own wooden house 375sqm in France and wish I could afford to hire you to do all the interior wood!

Wow i have never seen anything like that surfacing tool that things awesome

You deserve more than 144k likes. Brilliant craftsmanship

Really respect your work ethic, especially for a senior. Had no clue carpentry was so demanding.

24:28 now that is a cool trick to the hold the piece with your foot!

So pleasurable and calming watching your skill and precision. A true master at his craft. Thank you!

Wow!!!! After just installing two Red Oak ( treads and risers) staircases this past summer, we definitely didn't do it like this!!!! Just amazing!!!

I enjoyed the videos and dedication to this craft. The work is thoughtfully planned and executed, and I am sure such perfection was attained thru years of practice and mistakes and hard lessons. That's why I would to see a video on Mr. Shoyan's bad day, when things didn't go as planned. I think we all have bad days at work, specially when we're starting on a profession. Therefore I would like to see or hear how Mr. Shoyan deals with problems at work after so many years of experiences.

Indeed, it's beautiful! This technology I like better than just cutting out triangle places for steps.. Because, after cutting out base plate gets week.. Excellent video and great job! 👍 THANKS FOR SHARING! 🤗

This is pure human artistry. I loved watching this. I wish so much that I could learn from a master like this. Well done.

Great job! I’m a hobbyist woodworker but have dreams of turning it into something bigger. I enjoyed watching your video of building the stairs!! Just subscribed to your channel!

Thank you Shoyen. From Long Beach, California, USA

Excellent work.

Truly beautiful. Respect.

wonderful carpentry

A true Craftsman. Beautiful.

you are amazing to watch create the stairs as a master stair maker thank you for the video

The marking off the other stringer- be precise when you can, but always be consistent. ;)

Master at work, we need people like you in the UK. Tukimi

You are a true artist sir, thank you for your time.

Great workmanship and a pleasure to see the care and attention to detail this man puts into all his work.

You make this build look too easy. Its a joy watching these videos .

Rolex precision

Thank you for sharing your wisdom ❤

It was a pleasure to watch you work again!

Nice. A little bit different to how we in the UK make a stair . Where we would have assembled before fitting the stringers and wedge the treads and risers. Then use glue blocks between the tread and risers

Beautiful work as always!

Beautiful craftmanship as always Shoyan-san

Hi Shoyan, another great video. Such a pleasure watching you work, Cheers.

I am always impressed with the selection of lumber used. Here in the USA the lumber is shabby at the best in the big box stores. Your lumber is so nicely grained, few knots, and so wonderful to look at. You are a true craftsmen and it is a joy to watch your skills put to the test.

Such amazing work!

Very nice work - Great video

Shoyan, I appreciate your skill.

It's a pleasure to watch a competent craftman work.

Awesome. Sanks for posting.

It is always satisfying to hand plane timbers.

I love your videos, this staircase is very impressive!

Very very nice work as always 👌👍💯
