Making two Hexagonal Kumiko patterns, Asanoha and Rindo, only by hand tools.
(enable captions/subtitles for some explanations along the build)
I am working on some bigger kumiko hexagonal projects that are made mostly with a table saw jig, and decided to make this clip as well, doing them by hand tools, to go along with my old video of making square patterns by hand tools • Making Kumiko Patterns...
The kumiko strips in this video are ready made bought ones from model making shops. They are 8x3mm, 1m long, made out of pine wood. If you like to make them yourself I have a video too showing how to • Cutting Kumiko Strips ...
■ A good reference in Kumiko making are these books from Des King:
Shoji and Kumiko Design vol.1, D.King - amzn.to/3Shr4Mo

Cutting the 4 cuts on the A before removing the waste is brilliant. I always have an issue with the saw falling into the "hole". Leaving the waste til last...mind blown... Love the simplicity of your jigs as well. I have copied what I can and they work super.

Years ago one of your videos inspired me to try my hand at kumiko. Since then I’ve loved it. You are very good at it. Well done as always!!! Loving the octagonal. Precision was difficult for me. I can imagine this will be even more challenging. Love the mdf jig.

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

Oh, cool then! I want to make next a bigger one, like a landscape, but I will cut the lap joints on the table saw. But filling the triangles will be done by hand, and there is the tremendous work🙂 also I plan to make them smaller, 30mm vs 45 like here in the clip. Don't know how will I succed filling more complex patterns into those spaces, but will see🙂

Incredible work my friend! I'm about to be making a kumiko panel here really soon and I'm also going to be cutting the mitsu-kude joint by hand. You made it look really easy here, and I'll be the first to say it is a very difficult thing to pull off!

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Seth! That was the first time I did, and I was extra careful with the marks and measurements, and it came out better than the table saw ones, but it took ages :)) Now I want to make a big panel, about 800x300mm and 30mm distance between strips but for sure I will make them at the table saw :)

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Those are simply some blocks with a groove at the width of the strip, then trimmed at the ends at the respective angles, usually on the table saw. You can see them also in the books I've linked in the description, but those are wider because the author uses a small plane rather than a chisel.

@trishahardhearted 2 жыл бұрын

That is incredible! Do you plane the wood? Are the short pieces within the frame glued together? Thank you for sharing this video. I enjoyed watching it. It's easy to understand how to make the cuts. I'd like to make a shoji lamp too.

@shanesmith5405 3 жыл бұрын

Different approach to cleaning out the joints. Seems it would definitely be easier to make the second cuts before cleaning out the waist from the first cuts but is it fiddly trying to clean out the little pieces of waist? I will have to try that method though. Thanks, lovely work.

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

I left the first waist uncleaned just to have some support for the 2nd cut, the little dust that's inside the kerf there will help holding it. Dough, I remove later the waste one by one cause my chisel is 1/8" so a little wider than 3mm as the stick thick. I must make some kind of diy

@josephjisa9788 3 жыл бұрын

So I have the book that lays it out but for the life of me the measuring just boggles my mind. Is there a simpler explanation you could offer on how to establish the hexagon sizing and keeping them equal.

@LillianKZ123 Жыл бұрын

I noticed that the guide you are using is the same width as you strips. Mine has a width slightly wider than my strip. Could that cause my cuts to be uneven across the strip?

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Ron! For the jigs look for Mike Pekovich, Des King, Mike Farington etc they have plenty of info on making the jigs. It's just cutting some angled ends on the table saw and make a slot/groove

@gunterschone8402 3 жыл бұрын

Nice video, Adrian. The hexagonal kumikos look very nice. The books (Shoji and Kumiko Design 1-3) are not bad if you can read and write English. 😁 Everything is well explained in the books. Unfortunately I can't. Time to ask: >> The wooden fixtures where you cut the angles (120 ° / 45 ° / 60 ° / etc.) How many wooden devices do you need for all the angles?

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

Hi, thank you! Those are simply some blocks of wood, with a groove at the width of the strip, then trim the ends at the respective angle on the table saw. The angles needed for the asanoha pattern are 30 and 60, and for the rindo again 30, then 15 and 75.

@gunterschone8402 3 жыл бұрын

Hello Adrain, Thanks for the answer! 👍🏻 Can I also use the wooden blocks with the groove for other kumikos? 🤔 I wish you a nice week.

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

You mean you can't get the blades out for the first time? Try more and insist, they can be stucked due to high humidity. Hammer the corners of the dai, and some lateral kicks on the blade from time to time, no big kicks, and have patience, it may take some time

Foarte fain. Am exersat mult kumiko in timpul pandemiei. Mi-am cumparat si o carte, dar mai mult m-au ajutat filmele tale. Cateva probleme: 1. initial nu am reusit sa tai crestaturile la latime constanta. Ba erau prea inguste, ba prea late si grilajul nu era perfect simetric. Pana la urma am cumparat un 'Japanese Double Inlay Knife' pentru a marca exact. Surprinzator, ma descurc mai bine cu un ferastrau vestic decat cu dozuki. Am un carcas saw de la Veritas cu dinti pentru retezare, 14 tpi, si un opritor de adancime magnetic. 2. nu am reusit sa marchez grilajul principal cu rigla, am ales sa folosesc un compas. 3. nu am reusit sa spintec fasiile cu ferastraul dozuki, se infunda des, probabil pentru ca ferastraul meu e pentru retezare. Acum folosesc un kataba nokogiri cu dinti pentru spintecare, agresiv, 5 tpi, care surprinzator lasa o taietura fina.

@AdrianPreda 3 жыл бұрын

Mersi! 1. Probabil le marcai pe ambele deodata. Intai marchezi o linie, o tai, si apoi marchezi si pe a doua cu o sipca de proba pusa intre echer si pana nu se mai vede taietura precedenta. Mai clar parca am aratat in videoul vechi cu kumiko. Si aici e dar cam repede. 2. Am vazut si eu la altii, cred ca pare mai rapid, o sa incerc si eu 3. La facut sipci cred ca te referi. Eu acum le tai la banzic in faza aia.
