G'day Garakuta-san!
Welcome to the forums. Your work is truly impressive. Thank you for sharing it with us. I look forward to seeing more in the future.
(I really enjoyed your comment about smirking at your successful joinery. That made me smile!)

I'm glad to know , we , woodworkers, can share the same sense of 'smirking ' in different countries. (time zone is almost same, though ,,)
BTW, the following joinery list is one of what we , present woodworkers inherited from old masters.

Zenwood
Sorry about that, it was an impulse to reply in Japanese.

As an Engrish teacher, you probably understand my-not so good-Japanese.
Cheers

Actually, I meant how you got the characters to work.
Usually when I slip and type in stuff with it still switched to Japanese text set, it comes out as lotsa ????s...
For example.
I am Stu. Nice to meet you.
Now it works properly. I hate computers. :mad:
Niki, your Japanese there was fine, better than mine would be if I bashed it in.
However, I could read what Zenwood bashed in pretty well. I can read ok, but that's about it.

For my post above, I just did a copy and paste from the language translator. Let's try it from Asahi:

Hi Go
Spent more time quietly looking at your shoe cabinet project.
One point: I think your (forced) choice of horizontal-grain panels was the best as width of top panels might cause shrinkage/expansion problems (although I know you allow for this).
Also: what finish did you apply to cabinet? Do you sand before finishing?Rusty

Welcome to the forum Garakuta. I particularly liked the phrase "gift of the forest"!
Whenever I can I watch the demonstrations at woodworking shows by a Japanese craftsman, it never fails to fascinate me.

Wow! Fantastic! What a great experience! I found Japanese language class in foreign ww forum )!
and thank you so many welcome and flatter greeting.
niki-san , your Japanese is perfect! It's my first experience to read Japanese in foreign forum.;-)
but sensei(teacher/master) is not proper for me. I'm a novice. BTW porando means Poland or porando is in Australia ?
JB- Ah, That was your mail.) yes, shrinkage/expansion caused by humidity cycle is a problem, especially
in Japan. In addition to it, I make my project from green log. So I keep lumbers indoor for months and use thick lumber as much as possible.
I finished it with oil. (U.S FDA and Japanese food safe regulation passed). and I had used #600 sanding paper before I fished it.

I visited Fukuoka in last Mov. I met ww friend of web for the first time. I talked much in his workshop and had great time with him.

Gift of the forest is my real feeling. as I get logs in forest nearby and make lumbers in sawmill.Listen to the Forest
