진짜 거울같네요. 옻칠의 아름다움 잘봤습니다 😊🎉
In Japan, mirrors have been sacred since ancient times. It takes patience to create a mirror. It's also nice with the black mirror.
woooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwww sacred? oh golly!
They didn't have mirrors until western contact. So it's not that ancient.
@@bashkillszombiesHe's probably talking about the American colonists after the war 💀
どんな風に映るのか見てみたかった😢
ほんとそれ。
I love watching artists. Although I don’t do what they do, I try things for my own art hobby. It’s good to be observant if the watcher is a hobby crafter to improve or change or try. I’m sure these artists are glad that some of us pay particular interest because we do art too. I watched one artist who was working with paper. Can’t remember if it was here or another video from another group of artists. I work with paper. They did something to get rid of wrinkles. I watched and tried it and it solved a paper wrinkle problem I couldn’t figure out how to do for years. The artists I’ve seen here and other places are very patient as they do things. I tend to rush so watching their patience is teaching me more patience. To non artists all that means nothing. To me, it means everything. I watch, I learn, I try to apply. And to say hey you helped in an area I think is good feedback as I try things to put to actual use rather than just being an observer.
Bro went in raw with that paint gun, RIP his 🫁
Thank you for posting these videos. I absolutely love watching them. These people should be protected and treasured for what they do ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
Amazing work! As a craftsman myself (leather for 41yrs) I enjoy watching others in different mediums, and as such I do wish there was more details given in the process, i.e. how many coats of paint and lacquer. At the end some object like a flower in front of the mirror to show how reflective it is. Keep up the beautiful work!
I love the passion they have when doing things, thank you very much for making these videos and letting us see a little of how things are done, love from Mexico ❤❤❤
❤❤❤ thanks for all tbe series - awe inspiring every episode ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much for your comments 😀😀
The talent, dedication, and patience are remarkable! I love seeing all the time-honored techniques still being used. Thank you for sharing all these amazing craftspeople with the world!
Pretty to look at. But, I’m not sure how useful a black mirror actually is.
The love of hand rubbed black lacquer. Do an entire car.
Très bel objet, plein de noblesse grâce à l'expertise d'artisans d'exception. Merci d'avoir partagé cette vidéo, c'était très beau à regarder 🙏 Bonne continuation.
Amei! Parabéns, belíssimo trabalho.😍😍👏👏👏
Simplemente precioso, agradezco que mostrará su talento con todos
that is truly cool. thank you for showing us the process.
If only I could afford that! I could afford something like $150-$200 for a smaller version. I love black mirrors!
Great webshop. I might even buy something if there wasn't a "wheel of fortune" popup every time a new page opened 😁🙄
Would make for a nice scrying mirror without the gold.
Even with the gold! I’d love one!!!
Reminds me of a ganache cake I made once. Also had a great high-gloss sheen to it
That is very nice. I would love to see more of how well it reflects.
(Edit: Really Good-) Auto body technicians: “I can do that”
Ну и как негры должны смотреться в черное зеркало?
Да вообще какая-то хрень😂
Zero days when russian were not racists
Thank you again! I watched closely how he applied that paint coat on top and when he turned it as he did it, I tried that on a round piece of cardboard I put in my small cans on top of shredded paper and was amazed. The coating is much smoother and it spread out better. I watched closely how he painted the outside rim. I’m going to try to be neater when I do outside of my cans turning it as I do to make it smoother like he did his rim instead of my usual slopping on paint. A small thing to see but a big improvement on my things when I try. I’m always learning something new that I can adapt to what I do watching.
The smoothing is achieved with the wet sanding, if you look after his is dried initially it is very rough and uneven until he sands it then scrapes it rather than brushing
@@IPreferLoLtbh ahhhh!
You want an effin cookie?
@@natemartinez4595 I’ll take a bag of chocolate chip and a bag of Oreos. One cookie won’t do it.
Nice work, bad mirror 😁👍
Masterfully done. Thank you.
Very beautiful and a very fascinating process.
Respect ✌️❤️🇳🇿
Amazing piece
Maravilloso 👏 👏 👏
Magnifique !
Hand-rubbed lacquer. For real.
Do they not have heat in their workshop?? 🤔🤔
Shame there were no images of reflections in the mirror at the end 😕
step two is called sanding, not carving . nice video.
That is beautiful.
Nice artwork
Where does the texture come from? You went from spraying a smooth disk to "scraping" on a half textured one
A gateway to the underworld perhaps?
노란 가루를 발랐을 때 금빛으로 변하는 장면이 너무 신기하고 아름다워요!!
金粉蒔きですね。
いいねー流石。
Beautiful! ❤️👍🏻
His arms must be very strong
My dude literally hand polished that mirror. This is very beautiful.
i like that this video doesn't fuck around with one of those previews it just gets right to it
Gracias por el tutorial, ahora a fabricarme mi propio espejo con laca negra que tengo a montones de latas arrumbadas aquí en el patio trasero de mi casa.
Gorgeous!
$ 2,000 - $10,000 a piece! Welcome to Japan!
I was bored honestly, guess I was expecting more !
Very Nice. Artwork.
雲一つない月夜の如く澄んだ綺麗な漆塗り…
I wonder how cold it is in their workshop. They’re wearing a lot of layers for indoor work. Is it for the lacquer or just lack of central heating?
Столько работы, усилий, съемка, монтаж, но в самом конце получившийся продукт показали ужастно, отвратительно. Зачем столько времени это делать, если показанный результат можно намалевать за пару часов двуми балончиками краски. Где зеркало, где отражение, где показанная идеальная поверхность в конце?
100 лет, а спецодежду, респираторы, полировочную машинку так и не приобрели... с таким "на коленках- ручным" способом производительность и стоимость получается запредельная
No masks needed for spraying?
The entire wall that he is standing opposite from is a massive vent that is pulling the fumes away from him.
Mahalo! Thanks! Aloha from Hawaii.
Hmm, some of the phrases are kinda there, but not quite. 2nd process: Carve the base. -> "smooth the base " or "resurface the primer layer" 5th process: Scrape the surface -> "sand the surface" or "wet sand the paint layer"
resembles lunar eclipse?
Can you actually mirror on those?
Полезно. Да. А еще хранить клячку удобно в оболочке от киндер-яйца. Герметично, с крышечкой и не сохнет.
Very nice
Є приказка, сивина не ознака мудрості, сивина ознака старості! Так само і 100 річна історія...
Странно, вроде бы такой простой предмет, но как не просто его делать, а так же выглядит очень красиво в итоге. Жаль не показали как отражает.
Guy: spends hours meticulously picking out every speck of dust. Same guy: wears a Polar fleece top.
So?whats your point?
@@sjefhendrickx2257 that he should try and avoid the dust in the first place. Should a chef wear a hair net, or spend half an hour checking each soup for hair?
Bro THANK YOU. It wouldn't be dirty if they wore proper attire. They're just painting a piece of wood black and buffing it. Could easily be replicated with modern equipment in 3 hours and not 1 a day.
Awesome
kewl
Ooohhh. Japonais! Haven't seen the process before. That's amazing.
What an excellent crying mirror!! It’s beautiful 🤩
Did you mean scrying mirror? I'm not being a B. I am just genuinely curious bc I never heard of a crying mirror but I've heard of a scrying mirror.
You realize you can’t edit comments, right? I do believe that was a so-called ‘correction’ by KZhead🥺
@teleriferchnyfain you absolutely can edit comments
Huh? You can edit comments. Also scrying is a dangerous satanic practice. As are all Pagan practices, they are nothing but demons deceiving those who worship at their alters. The “spirits” all have pure hate and fear of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and His beloved and Divine Son Jesus Christ. “Oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of thy Mercy” +---------+---------+ 🌹 “Pray the Rosary every day, in order to obtain Peace in the world…” -Our Lady’s Words at Fatima May 13th, 1917 🌹 +---------+---------+ -God bless 🌹Ave Maria🌹 +Viva Cristo Rey+
I’m on my phone & no it doesn’t let me edit comments.
Beautiful work Sir, thank you for sharing.
right thats it, im gonna open a t-cut store in japan - work smarter not harder
How much does one of these even cost?
Arigato guzaimus 👍
Dudo mucho que IKEA los fabrique así 🤣🤣🤣
Remind me of a go stones .
Where is the result
Почему не показали как оно отражает? Очень хотелось посмотреть на зеркало в действии.
Chiếc gương màu đen thật đẹp
Pretty
Ou você pode comprar um espelho normal e pagar 2% do valor
Very pretty, indeed, but I don't know what I'd do with it. Wall art?
They suggest how you could use it at about 10:00
Что-то он в куртке, неужели там холодно?😢
Thank you for your hard work.
Почему он в куртке сидит?
技術は見事だが黒い鏡は不吉な気がする
❤❤❤
Los asiaticos siempre dandole misticismo a todo lo que hacen 😂😂😂 nada que un buen pintor no pueda hacer en menos tiempo sin tanto misticismo 😂😂😂
Столько труда а в итоге хрень. Где тут зеркало не понятно. Просто полированный лак.
That's beautiful! Some thoughts: 1. The gold standard for creating perfectly flat surfaces is to rub three of them together in pairs, with the appropriately-sized grit/sandpaper/etc. in between. (Switch to regular lapping near the end, of course.) Look up 'Whitworth Three Plates Method' for more info. 2. If you look up 'diy router sled' for another way to flatten boards. You don't need to use a router, of course, just the method. You can, for example, use a plane/sanding block/etc. Whatever tool you are using, the method will result in fast, perfectly flat surfaces. 3. The perfect tool to pick up debris in paint/etc. is actually a syringe needle, as the tips are incredibly tiny and are sharpened to be generally flat. Combine that with the hollow center and you have a microscopic spoon, perfect for getting under the smallest particles. Even better, by pulling back on the syringe a tiny amount, you create negative pressure to hold them in place. You also can get them cheaply in many different sizes. 4. You should _defintely_ expand beyond Patreon, as *many* people are boycotting it over its tyrannical political and ideological stance. Ko-Fi and Liberapay come immediately to mind, and you can have accounts on as many other services as you want. I hope that these ideas help you to create even more art faster, with less effort, and even greater financial gains. Cheers!
It is beautiful and I appreciate your work! I must ask though why the uneven gold portion? Personally It upsets my sense of balance and symmetry. I was just wondering if this is a traditional way of making them, or just the artists creative choice? Beautiful work though! ❤
Didn't even show how good of a mirror it even is :
No safety gear?
gotta make sure to keep water away from it!
😊
그런데 이 거울은 어디에 쓰는 걸까요?
It’s main use was spiritual back in the day
я что-то так и не нашел момента, когда в него будут запихивать длинноволосую девушку, что будет из него вылезать по ночам
Emo mirror
Lustro tylko z nazwy. Polakierowany i wypolerowany kawałek drewna.
最後何か鏡に写してほしかった
He doesn't want to wear them!!!!!
下地にスプレーを使ってるのがなんかガッカリ。 しかも鏡なのになぜ最後にその映り具合を見せないなんて意味が分からん。
