Small Japanese shoji screens, a miniaturized version of traditional panels that can serve as a home decoration or a tabletop, desk ornament. I’ve made them with various kumiko patterns, shoji rice paper behind, some with double panels, foldable with hinges and a small shelf board between, and solo ones, with supports. Wood: western red cedar / basswood and walnut for kumiko Finish: carnauba-beeswax mix (Borma Antikwachs) Shoji paper and rice glue I have some for sale on my store Tools used in this video plus others I use and recommend: • Fine Dozuki Saw for Kumiko work • All the saws I use • Veritas Low Angle Smoothing Plane • Japanese Planes (58 mm), (65 mm) • Veritas Miniature Chisels • Mini Japanese clamps (Amazon),
