What Our Happy Students Are Saying
I have been nothing but satisfied with DIY Japanese Joinery. I have been slowly accumulating tools and learning how to prepare, maintain, and use them. I frequently go back to rewatch the videos and it has helped fast track me on this craft. I highly recommend this product for anyone interested in learning how to get started using Japanese tools or someone looking for more advanced joinery tutorials.

I am definitely a neophyte with regard to woodworking but recently became very drawn to Japanese tools. They are kind of mystical to me and you have helped to reduce the mystery while maintaining such a reverance for what these tools can do of you let them. I have watched you move slowly and do so with a careful attention to the process. Woodworking can be that thing I need it to be when I work as you have shown me. I can simply do and not be too concerned with completion…
