I'm not a carpenter but I love carpentry work and all its techniques. The aesthetic choices you've made are understandable, but I always believe that "less is more" ;) That's why laser engraving feels like a "plus"... don't get me wrong, please. I understand that your sponsor imposes, which is normal. Your videos, explanations, assumption of mistakes and calm voice, turn your channel into a source of entertainment.

@@JTWoodworks You also filled a lot of imperfections with CA glue. So there's already plastic of sorts in it. I guess those smaller imperfections seemed weird to you, while the gigantic one did not.

I appreciate the compliments. Yes, I did fill some spots with CA glue. The spots I filled though were cracks and soft wood, so it was needed structurally. I've also done other projects with large amounts of epoxy and I'm not totally against it. I think it has its place but natural beauty should also be appreciated

I used a thin kerf blade (3/32") specifically to help with this. It would have flowed and been almost seamless if I cut them using the bandsaw

Just received my v2 sled and realized that my current blade is too thin to clear the registration key. What thickness blade are you using? Can I simply make a new key to match my thin kerf blade?
@JTWoodworks5 күн бұрын
The key is designed to be used with an 1/8" blade but you can definitely make your own for the blade size you have. If you go that route, make sure the strips you se are that same thickness

I am not sure if you are familiar with this person or not, however I think Murayama Shinichi was one of the first people to develop a technique for doing kumiko in 3d. I am not sure how his technique may vary from your own but you might be interested to do some more research into this individual.
@JTWoodworks15 күн бұрын
I am familiar with them. I saw a video on it once and it seems like they're made in vertical segments with angled sides, glued together to form a cylinder, and then sanded to be round. A similar process to making a segmented vase or frame. I did a lot of research before this project and it doesn't seem like anyone has actually bent kumiko before
@viaJustin191015 күн бұрын
@@JTWoodworks okay yeah I can see that it is two completely different processes now. Like I said I wasn't sure what technique he actually used to create his, I just knew he was making it in 3D.

Phenomenal work. After you rip the kumiko parts and cut the dados, id pass them through a drum sander though.
@JTWoodworks16 күн бұрын
That would be a nice touch but I don't have a drum sander. You can also hand plane the strips which leave an even cleaner finish but I seem to get a nice finish right off the saw as long as the blade is sharp and clean

Why is the sled shipped with the runner on the wrong side? Why switch sides?
@JTWoodworks21 күн бұрын
There is a new version of the sleds and the runner on the right side is adjustable. The runners on the sleds in this video aren't. The sleds basically function the same way. Also, the new sled is both of the sleds in this video combined into one sled. There's a video out on the V2 sled design if you want to check it out

So much work with the kumiko and than you use double sided tape for the paper? Really?
@JTWoodworksАй бұрын
It's a special double sided tape that's designed to be used with shoji paper. It's pretty commonly used by modern shoji craftsmen in Japan
@atariks1475Ай бұрын
@@JTWoodworks Ahh okay. Sorry, that was rude. Can you still tention the paper when you use this tape? My shojibook suggest that you mist the paper after glueing with water and when this dries the paper will tention and sound like a drum afterwards. Delicate projects tend to become crooked by that but for doors or bissger frames it should be possible.
@JTWoodworksАй бұрын
Yes I spray the paper in the video. I haven't noticed a difference in paper tightness between the tape and glue. I do use glue sometimes but I find the tape is much easier and there isn't any dry time

@@JTWoodworks ahh, didn't noticed that. You are first one I see doing that. In all the other videos of creators its just glued to the wood. Do you have any experience in case of a complete shoji paper swap? The starch glue can just be watered and it gets loose. How does the tape perform with that?

Although I'd seen the wood burning technique before, and was impressed by the idea of it, this particular use is a touch of creative genius. The use of it here lends the lantern a sense of timelessness, because it evokes a strong sense of age while the design and craftsmanship screams modernity. This is how putting a few sticks of wood together becomes high art. Bravo, Maestro!
