I am Takami Kawai, a carpenter in Japan.

I am currently working on a project to donate a torii to a shrine in Kyoto, and the whole process will be share for free.

If you want to learn more about torii production, take an online class.

 

 

I will explain how to construct a torii gate.

The theme is “How to make a material“.

 

Making the material is the most important start of processing.

If this processing is appropriate, it will not be possible to mark the line neatly, and the accuracy of the finished product will be poor.

This is an important task, so let’s concentrate on it!
