The Art of Japanese Joinery
Product ID: 50142012
This lively introduction to Japanese joinery not only delves lovingly into the unique history and development of Japanese carpentry, but also reveals many secrets of Japanese joinery. Presenting 48 joints, selected from among the several hundred known and used today, this visually exciting book will please anyone who has ever been moved by the sheer beauty of wood. With the clear isometric projections complementing the 64 pages of stunning photographs, even the weekend carpenter can duplicate these bequests from the traditional Japanese carpenter, which can be applied to projects as large as the buildings for which most of them were originally devised or to projects as small as a sewing box.

ENTURES
ASSEMBLER deux « morceaux de bois » peut être simple mais cela devient plus complexe si des contraintes s’exercent de façon permanente ou aléatoire et complexes.Pratiquer des entailles fragilise mais souvent la colle annule les effets négatifs en utilisant l’adhésif adapté dans les conditions optimales (humidité, température et pression combinées).Pour construire les temples, les habitations avec les bois dont ils disposaient les JAPONAIS ont mis en œuvre l’art d’entailler les bois avec des outils tranchants pour assembler, jointer les bois bout à bout, avec des angles etc pour leurs constructions.Ces joints sont peu connus dans nos contrées…aussi ce fascicule nous fait découvrir quelques aspects de cet art exceptionnel.Indispensable pour tous ceux qui aiment le beau, le bois et les superbes photos.
