I made myself a new chouna handle with a London Plane branch that I found. The handle texture is grippy and stable!

More from #nykez2018 Kohei Yamamoto with his adze. Anybody know the Japanese name of this shape? #adze #chouna #japanesetools #woodworking #timberframe #carpentry #somacousha #peekskill #dainslumber @dainslumber (at Peekskill, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoJ7CargtOd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dzyijmouugcy
NYC KEZ in two days! Get sharper! If you're near Brooklyn, come out for Japanese tool demos, a talk by Douglas Brooks boatbuilder, and a planing contest. I'm headed up to make sure NC is (at least somewhat) represented. Check out the link in my bio. #woodworking #japanesetools #kanna #nomi #nokogiri #genno #toishi #chouna #ono #masakari #japanesecarpentry #timberframe #kezuroukai @mokuchistudio #brooklyn #greensboronc #205collaborative (at 205 Collaborative)
Had a bit of flood damage in the shop, while in NY for Kezuroukai 2018. My chouna took a little bath. Getting them cleaned up, and hopefully start bending up some new handles for them soon. #chouna #adze #japanesetools #woodworking #justalittleflooding #greensboronc #205collaborative (at 205 Collaborative) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoJkP_GgQUr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ot6fs9y0f1fz
