Descrição do livro

Centuries before modern joinery existed, Japanese craftsmen were already raising temples and shrines built to outlast empires — without a single nail or screw.Japanese Woodworking Handbook is a complete, ground-up guide to the tools, materials, and techniques behind one of the world's most refined craft traditions. Rather than teaching a narrow set of projects, this handbook surveys the entire discipline: the history and philosophy that shape how Japanese craftspeople approach their work, the wood species chosen for each application, the hand tools refined over a thousand years, and the joinery that lets furniture and buildings alike be assembled — and disassembled — without metal fasteners.
Inside, you'll learn how to:

  • Select, season, and identify traditional Japanese wood species by grain and working properties
  • Set up a workshop and master the hand tools — planes, saws, and chisels — unique to Japanese practice
  • Cut and shape the joinery techniques behind fine furniture, cabinetry, and architectural carpentry
  • Sharpen and maintain edge tools using traditional methods
  • Apply natural oils and traditional finishing techniques
  • Put core skills to work in real furniture-making and architectural projects, from teahouse carpentry to temple joinery
Structured across five parts — foundations and philosophy, materials, workshop, technique, and application — this handbook is built for readers at every stage. Complete beginners get a guided path through the fundamentals, while furniture makers, cabinetmakers, and carpentry professionals will find dedicated chapters on their specific work. Every chapter closes with a summary for quick review, and black-and-white infographics support the concepts throughout.
This is reference material meant to be returned to, not a project book you'll outgrow after your first joint. Japanese woodworking rewards patience, and this handbook offers the grounded, well-organized foundation every serious practitioner eventually needs.Every master was once a beginner. Start Japanese Woodworking Handbook today, and build the foundation that generations of Japanese craftsmen have spent centuries perfecting.
