Okay, there are millions of right ways to make a table, I know. Also, this is not a detailed how-to, instructional video. But you can learn the techniques involved in making a traditional Japanese-style table by simply watching, and being inspired. It's so, so good.

AMAZING

No hardware to be found here. Just amazing joinery methods that work brilliantly. Check out the dovetailed tusk tenons going in near the end. Such a class touch.

ENJOY

If you have some time to spare, I highly recommend searching Ishitani Furniture on YouTube. Then sit back, relax, and enjoy. It's almost therapeutic watching Natsuki Ishitani go about his business of Japanese style furniture making.
