Japanese video *LINK*

Clay C in Miami

>You may have seen this, but a post on another forum from Takeshi Uchida led to this incredible site, with many, many videos of Japanese WWing. Page by page, I had to scroll each page all the way left to see the pictures on the far right.

Then, below the pics, the > button takes you to the next page, and the little square 'screen' button on the far right plays the video, where there is one (you also have to hit the > button in the video popup screen).

Wish I knew Japanese!

Here's the index:

and below is the link to the set of videos (!!!) on Japanese chisel-hoop setting, as an example.

>Clay, I've never seen it. Thanks for the link. Did you see the thinnnnnn shavings that guy made...miked out at .0009" 9/10ths! That one plane must be 12" wide and he peals an incredible shaving off with it.

>I found that, if I pasted the first page of each set into 'babelfish,' I could then still use the 'advance' buttons, and each page comes up in (a machine-translated facsimile of) English. Too bad it doesn't work on the narration or videos!

There's an amazing amount of stuff here about sharpening, blade angles, photomicrographs, different grits, planing at a skew, saw sharpening, etc. Looks like a lot to get through.

>Frank, I thought the measurement was metric. If so, even more awesome.

Thanks, Clay for really interesting link even for a non-japanese speaker. It's interesting how they stress postures and hand holds and sightlines.
