Craftsmanship in Wood

Morning! With the butler's desk now winding down (a few things left to complete), I've had a moment to begin preparing a new tool for the shop. I'd like to start building Shoji and so I have acquired a new kanna with designs on turning it into a Hikouki kanna.

I look forward to your comments.

The Dai prep has now been recorded.

That Kanna looks perfect now!

For my kumiko work, I have been using jigs to dimension the stock, but I have been considering some sort of attachment cradle for a kanna which may merit more accurate results.

Tomohito-san did point me towards a hikouki-kanna, but they are prohibitively expensive for my requirements right now.

I look forward to your modifications.

Thank you! I should have something worthwhile to post in a few weeks. I decided to leave that dai alone and so I cut another to use as the hikouki Kanna. I couldn't bring myself to operate on that newly setup dai, lol.

Good morning! Now that Kez is complete I'm back at it with he Hikouki kanna, now mostly completed and soon to be ready for testing.

I hope enjoy my post and look forward to your comments.
