    For anyone interested, Japanese joinery & other information about traditional Japanese house construction is extensively documented in the book “Japanese House: A Tradition For Contemporary Architecture” by Heino Engel. He also published “Measure and Construction of the Japanese House”, wich is a reprint of mainly the construction portions of the previous book and is far less expensive.

    Ultra-complicated and impressive joinery. Not too many craftsmen could even touch something like that. However, other than a “challenge” or a “curiosity”, I can’t see taking these kinds of pains. Too many other methods that aren’t so difficult or time consuming, yet still will do the job quite adequately. Even so, I much enjoyed and respect this complex wood joinery project. hats off to you guys!

    yes it’s very time consuming, but you do it for the love of working timber. Imagine building your own home with this technique, and then showing all your friends!

    that is very cool, but can you imagine building an entire building with joints like that ??
    I’d like to know how much time was spent on this joint with 4 men.
    very nicely done.

    waste of time to do all that work to make a joint. there is much better ways to do a joint. thats why they invented glue lol
