      Unfortunately there just isn’t that much out there on Japanese furniture construction. Most of what I have done is best guess from looking at hundreds of photos. The rest I just make up. I have yet to find even a book that details the joinery. Most of the books deal with timber frame construction joinery. If I do find anything of use you can be sure I’ll post it here on my blog.

    Greg I was nearly desperate to find something on Japanese joinery but then I stumbled across your site! This is such a treasure to me. Thanks for sharing all of these amazing things! I also love your story in the About section, and I can relate a lot because I grew up in a very similar environment. Keep it up and best of luck!
