I made a Japanese Shoji lamp from raw fire wood by hand |No Power Tools

I love the idea of transforming an inexpensive and seemingly boring piece of material into something special, something that it was never intended to be.
Also a big fan of Japanese culture.
This is not a proper technique for building a Shoji lamp, it is my first attempt, and a learning curve.

I'm a power tool user mainly, but stuff like this really makes me want to get some hand tools, looks relaxing

That looks very similar to the shoji lamp I made, I didn't use rice paper for the lamp but I used wood veneer to shine the light through.

Great work! What kind of glue did you use to stick the paper to the wood?

- Thank you. I used just a regular paper glue that I hade on hand.

Je dois reconnaître que l'ouvrage est beau mais je suis choqué par le gaspillage de matière bois. Par contre merci ça fait réfléchir à ce que l'on achète tout fait ainsi qu'au rapport énergie objet produit.

- Thank you 🙏 I just realized now that you pointed it out, how shocking it may appear, however working with wood as a raw material always leaves a lot of waste, mostly sawdust which is not so noticable since it goes straight to the trash in the working process while in this video all the waste is presented on the table.

- There is no waste, if the shavings are used as fire starters, or incorporated into the garden’s compost bin.

What kind of paper are you using?
@SwampFox-tl2viАй бұрын
- I used a "translucent paper" that is how it is called and I found in the local hobby shop, not quite sure what is it used for but it is kinda milky white and it looks similar enough to mulberry paper originally used in shoji screens.
