Getting Straight Rip Cuts with a Japanese Saw

In this video I show that you don't need a fancy bench to cut a straight rip bench, you just need a set of low saw horses and a ryoba saw Music by Myhzy

Made this is out of mystery hardwood without using glue, took me about an hour with filming. I wanted to make something without going into fine detail, so I purposefully didn't go crazy trying to make things perfect here. All music used is produced by Myhzy beats

Confidence Friendliness a good perspective on life Just a few things you need to be on your way to becoming a good barista.
I tried kataba saw on many tropical hard wood, most of the time it won't go straight. I end up using western handsaw or Roubo style frame saw for resawing.
Would it be possible to provide the dimensions of each plane including the blades? Thanks
Great video thanks for sharing.
Would you please tell me what the dimensions are of the planes. length and blade witdh
Great video. Can I ask where you purchase that jointer kanna? Looking for one as well
Please translate the videos🙂❤️
The planing and shooting boards are a must. Great little beginner projects that will pay dividends in the quality of the work.
Yes, most Sepele doesn't plane well. I use a Hong Kong style 62° angle smoother marketed by Mujingfang. It takes type 2 shavings with no tear out and the iron can be reversed to create a scraping plane for a mirror finish in nasty grain and rock hard tropicals.
I've been googling for a japanese try plane. hard to find, only see block and smooth. can you send me a link to a reasonably priced try plane?
Awesome
I'm a 15 year old and I got a job at a local coffe shop of mine, I've been going to that shop troughout my whole life and I finally get to work there. I'm just looking for some videos to let me know about the job and I can say that your video helped me the most. Thanks and LOVE IT!!!!
Whats bad about me is that im not a fast learner, it takes repetition to get used to something and it knocks my confidence speaking to customers when I’ve recently started and not familiar with the till or drinks
Thanks for sharing! How straight and square is the cut? Your video has inspired me. Im looking to buy a good pull saw for cutting 7-12mm plywood, mdf and acrylic (500-800mm lengths). Do you think this 240mm would be suitable? (Google the following and click on first link) "Sunchild Dozuki 240mm 0.3mm" Was originally looking at Japanese model makita circular saws teeth decided to try the simpler, cheaper hand saw route.
We’re you ever able to find the name/link for the Tokyo Tool person with the good handplanes?
Never mind. Just found it below. Thanks!
Thank you!!
Useful information. Thank you.
Josh, thanks for the explanation!! I was wondering which plane to get and what they are used for. Is one more versatile than the other? I have a small budget and I am beginner.
I was already looking for the translation button, but it took me long enough to realize it was all a bluff :D
nice!
Did you modify a smoothing plane to make the scrub plane or did you buy it as scrub plane? I have been searching for a place to buy a Japanese scrub plane and have had no luck at all in finding one.
Hi, I modified it. I found a cheap kanna on ebay and cambered the blade using an eletric grinder, then using some waterstone going from I think 200 grit to 1000 grit if I remember correctly. I also added the grips on the side, works a charm, but the grips could be prettier in all honesty.
Great video! Did you put the camber on the Hira/Herashi-Kanna or did it come cambered? Were you able to accomplish using water stones or did you need to use an electric bench grinder? Thanks Josh these are great videos!
Thanks, hoping to make some more videos when I move to a house in the next couple of months. Used a bench grinder followed by some water stones 200 -1000 grit if I remember correctly!
Great work Josh, thank you for sharing this.
Watching all these Japanese plane videos makes my metal planes get gradually better.Some bits apply with both designs .
I've found the same thing to be honest!
Very cool Josh! Well done! ❤
Congratulations. You have stimulated the Chinese "copy cat" mfg business model. The fact that these have very low resale value is a testament to quality. Buy American and benefit the American economy. Luban is a cheap knockoff. If it wasn't, it wouldn't copy the design features!
Nah it does the job well. The fact that their resale value might not be high speaks more to the demand of these planes and not their quality, but with that being said a quick check on eBay and their resale value seems fine? Perhaps if I was American I'd be more interested in 'benefiting' the American economy. There seems to be subtle differences to the lie nielson too, therefore not a direct copy. Ultimately you could say the same about lie nielson copying the stanley design, where would you draw the line. Ultimately I see your point though, i'm not unaware of what's going on in china, but this is simply a by product of capitalism, value for money.
Hey, what about an end grain? What is your thoughts on squaring and planing them?
end grain as in the grain of the block going vertically up and down? wouldn't be as stable as "quarter sawn" like it is, this is the strongest "most stable" way a board can be cut so it is less likle to twist or warp over time, some still will when cut but all natural woods have internal stress that is released when cut open. end grain will flex al lot with humidity differences throughout the year.
Hey, what about an end grain? What is your thoughts on squaring and planing them?
If you haven’t seen a shooting boarding in use, there is TONS of info available on them nowadays. It’s kind of like the planing board he’s using in this video, except you would use it to hold a board in place crosswise and the plane perpendicular and square to it, then you “shoot” very light slices of end grain off after cutting it, and with a well-tuned board, you end up of a nice square piece to the end grain. You could set one up for Japanese or western-style planes.
I’ve admired your work on Reddit for a while now and I’m glad I found this video. I’m about to downsize from a garage set up to a smaller home that I’ll be moving to, so I made an Atedai that I’m working on the floor of my living room with and your workbench served as good inspiration.
Glad this could be on some inspiration, I’ve made a few small woodworking benches as I’ve been doing most of my woodwork in small spaces for a long time, I definitely don’t think you can go wrong with this design though you do have to adopt the Japanese woodwork style using your entire body to hold the work
Stanley changed it because when carpenters were paid by what amount of work they did, when adjusting on the fly the level cap would ride up and they would have to stop and set up the plane all over again , which took time and money.
A very worth while change indeed!
Yes the lateral adjuster is a bit of a let down look wise .
I am not saying this to be funny but using the lever cap to undo the chip breaker off the blade is not a good idea , that's why you see many Stanley plane's with broken lever cap's, nice plane you have there, Happy New year from a old vintage carpenter.
Happy new year! You're entirely correct, however I'd argue that convenience of not needing to grab a screwdriver would out weigh that potential of breaking the lever cap, but that's just personally for me, I'd rather have the option... but perhaps having the option is all it takes to eventually make the fatal error of breaking the lever cap mmm
I loved this!! as a fellow apartment carpenter this is giving me lots of inspiration. There isn't a lot of solid english language info on topics like building Atedai (the tip you made about making it asymmetrical is priceless) thanks for walking through your process!! Got my first kanna over the holidays excited to start building more tools.
Glad you enjoyed it! I’ll try to get more stuff out, it may be nice to make a mini atedai tbf :)
Thanks for posting this video. For your Japanese sawhorses, it appears your cross beam is relatively tall. How deep did you cut out of each piece to link together? Any wobble? Anything you would do different?
your videos are very inspiring! I'm slowly getting back into woodworking, my grandpa was an old japanese guy with a big workshop, so I inherited the idea of doing things like this peacefully and by hand. Those saw horses looks like a nice lil project.
That's amazing! They're a great project, you can make them as basic or as complex as you'd like design wise, i'd highly recommend giving it a go
hey would love a follow up video on the atedai!
I'm going to try and get one out in the nearby future, I've been super busy recently starting a new job! I'll see what I can do :)
Done!
I would start by getting a better saw, if you need to flip the board so the saw doesn't wander on the other side the saw is not the right size or set correctly, if the saw has impulse hardened teeth then it's probably trash.
A video on the workbench would be great! There’s no videos of how a Japanese workbench is made
Done!
Hi Josh: could you please post links to where we can buy these planes in Europe and N. America
Hi, most of the planes in this video aside from the naga dai kanna I got from a shop called Tokyocraft on etsy www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Tokyocraft
Josh, would love to see more videos on Japanese hand planes and Japanese woodworking in general.
I'll be making one on the ari shakuri kanna (sliding dovetail plane), within the next month! Thanks for the comment
Not sure why I kept saying lever cap instead of lateral adjuster!
Luban makes fantastic planes, but of course, we don't know how much these workers are paid in China.
Indeed. This is my main quarrel too
I've seen lots of videos on Japanese saws as of late. I noticed sometimes you can purchase saws specifically listed as " for hardwood". Is this important if you are cutting into hardwoods, or is it ok to buy the "regular" listed Japanese saws? And can you use to cut into softwoods to with these "hardwood" saws. I don't see a lot of UA-cam videos mention the specifically designed hardwood Japanese saws or if you have to go through the trouble of buying it specifically to cut into hardwoods. Your thoughts? thx
To my knowledge, Japanese saws made for hardwood have a thicker stronger steel plate to prevent the chance of bending and teeth being broken off. I don't think you have to get one made specifically for hardwoods though, unless you are sawing into exotic woods like ebony or lignum vitae, as they are both extremely hard. So in my opinion, no you don't need to, unless working with exotic hardwoods.
@@JoshIbbotson Thanks for the info. I have purple heart and maple woods. Should the regular Japanese saw work? Not sure if purpleheart is considered exotic.
@@kle2217 Just take it slow. The regular Japanese saw will work just fine and the thinner blade will require less effort. 😊 Most Japanese saws are all made of the same SK5 alloy; it's a fairly tough alloy and hardwood won't present much of a problem for it. Just take your time and enjoy the cuts! 😊🌎✨
Too slow , ILL stick with my western saw for ripping , thanks all the same.
Check out the Gyokucho 616 300mm made for resawing... I believe this was a 240mm, I got the 300mm one and it shreds through ripping
@@JoshIbbotson I love Japanese saw but not the rip saw it wonders too much .
Thanks for sharing guys. Sounds like you've both found some good saws. 😊🌎✨
I just got my first job as a barista at a locally owned, very high quality coffee shop. Yeah, the pay isn't too good. (although damn, the tips!) Cleaning up afterwards and preparing for the next day is also kind of a pain, and the learning process for all the menu items and processes is sort of stressful for someone who doesn't know anything. But it's also an amazing experience!
i want to become a barista in the future, i dont see it being my job forever but it is a dream i would love to achieve!!
Thanx for the video and your time
💚
This video is dedicated to my fiancée Saki who has always supported my woodworking, and even gifted me two of the planes in this video! Would like to work on more woodworking youtube videos, if you're interested in this kind of stuff let me know below, I have a lot to share on Japanese woodworking. I recently moved into a flat for a new work opportunity so I've had very little time for wood working, but i've still managed to make it work here :)
hey, Long time!! congrats on the engagement! Really informative video too! I recently bought my partner the Fujikawa Professional Oire Nomi Japanese Chisels. It's nice to have watched this and to consider what else i could get to add to his collection. Great to see you are doing well
Saw you post on reddit about your sliding dovetail plane. I just got one that cuts both male and female joints. Unfortunately I'll be away from my tools for the summer. I would love to see you tune your newly acquired plane and test its functionality. I'm a total novice so seeing someone go through the process would be very helpful. Will help me make an Atedai in the future as well.
Yes! Please make more!
Any link for reputable places to buy a plane?
This helped me so much! I was trying to rip from one side with the board clamped vertically to the work bench. I couldnt get more than 6 inch before i was completely off track. Flipping frequently helps even everything out! Thank you!
Really glad this helped! It was a game changer for me when I went to ripping this way instead of vertically in the vice. Though to be fair, even in the vice it's not so bad as long as you frequently flip it and use the methodology I present in the vid! Happy woodworking
It's a very sound method. Thanks for sharing my friend. 😊🌎✨
Man I went in a coffee shop yesterday asking for a summer job since I have nothing else to do this summer and after watching this I'm beginning to think it was a rash decision. Not that I lack any of things I need above, but I lack language. I moved to a new country (different language) 8 months ago and even though I'd say I'm pretty good at it rn I'm dying while thinking about actual working on a language I'm not so good at :') oh well~
