Simple Portable Lathe | Japanese Woodworking

When you want to pursue wood turning, but have neither the space nor the money for a full-blown lathe. Very well done! 👏🏻

Wauw!! ..... I'm speechless! .... This is THE most impressive DIY lathe I've ever seen! And with inspiration to make endless jigs to make almost all shapes easier and safer to make. I'm really amazed by this! Thank you SO SO much! ❤ /Pia from Denmark PS: Now more than ever I want to try to "turn wood" for the first time ever, with my own DIY lathe, and with help from a local experienced wood turner. I'm 60 years old, living alone, and want to reduce the risk of making moves that will go wrong - but I also love to learn new skills. And with a limited budget, it seems to be a good idea to buy a few quality cutters and make a sturdy DIY lathe, instead of buying an expensive "plug and turn" lathe and cheap cutters. ❤

That is the most amazing home made tool I have ever seen . So functional, accurate, versatile. Thank you for making this video.

As a CNC machinist this video put a smile on my Monday. Thank you

Simplicity and precision, such eternal Japanese qualities; your results are impressive, thank you. I love the soundtrack; makes you feel like doing it yourself. 🙏🏼

I don’t have a lathe because whenever I think of a lathe I picture, you know, a lathe as in big dedicated piece of equipment. I have neither budget nor room in my tiny workshop for another big piece of equipment. But this I can hang on the wall when not using it and clamp it to the edge of my work bench when I do. PERFECT!

Beautiful and relaxing. My grandpa was a carpenter and builder, and there's something about working wood that soothes me. Thanks.

Давно не встречал настолько качественного видео. В нём прекрасно всё: и используемая древесина, и идеи, и исполнение. И даже даны чертежи в конце, для тех, кому недостаточно идеи!

Wow, amazing lathe you have built there. The wood you were carving is very beautiful too.

You always have very nice wood to work with. Awesome design!

I love everything you do. This is very much without a doubt one of my most favorite woodworking channels to watch. I appreciate the simplicity of your methods and their effectiveness. I google translated this next portion, so forgive me if there is any bad translation. 専門知識を共有していただきありがとうございます。

Just wow! Thank you for the detailed idea with all the necessary dimensions. You are the best! :face-fuchsia-wide-eyes::hand-pink-waving:

Brilliant work and the accessories that you build are ever perfect and amazing, I am fascinated by your work, thank you so much for sharing your skills and ideas.

Dear Yasuhiro Tv, I congratulate and thank you for this wonderful application. Like your other wonderful and very detailed videos and applications that I have watched, this one is also extraordinarily beautiful. As always, you find great solutions when it comes to auxiliary equipment (such as taper cutting). Thanks again. I'm looking forward to your new productions. Kind regards.

So simple, easy and functional. I love it!

😮 This is a simple, incredible, the clean and precise results... just fantastic, thank you

Благодарю Вас за прекрасные идеи 🤝🏻 💡 очень понравилось все! 😊

Oh my god. Damn! I'm sat here mouth open in awe at how you've taken woodworking (yet again!!!) to a whole new level. I'm about to move into a bungalow which was owned by my late inlaws, he was a retired engineer and had a full size lathe (which he built!) and a drill press (which he built!) and loads of other gear. Unfortunately when he died everything went to charity which is something I was upset about but it was his will. There's no way I can afford to buy a lathe or have the space for one but this is perfect. Thank you so much for showing this.

I'm blown away! This is magnificent.

One of the most satisfying videos of my life! Thank you kind sir!
