Probably not a series I'll do in the near future as I imagine some readers might be worried they might never see woodworking again on the blog!

Of course I'd end back here at the Carpentry Way!! And I was joking I'm glad I finished my more utilitarian gates before viewing this treasure trove, lest I become over-inspired. In my opinion you are ABSOLUTELY fulfilling your mission statement of these posts: I will verify there is (was) just aenimic info anywhere else on this topic.

I'll be reading that tonight. <br /><br />Thank you for doing posts like this. These are wonderful inspiration, education, and so much more. Your blog along with 1 or 2 others are a continual huge influence on my love for Japanese woodworking (pressure is on). <br /><br />Please keep broadening my knowledge of Japanese architecture and woodworking! thanks againAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165303148974131900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261993076995357307.post-28383661277288990162013-01-02T09:38:21.045-05:002013-01-02T09:38:21.045-05:00Dave, thanks for the comment.

I'm not sure if it is clear to you or not, but an earthen-wall in Japanese architecture will likely be a timber frame structure with earthen infill, not exactly a 'berm'. Love those Kurosawa films too - if you like the gate theme, check out 'Rashomon'.<br /><br />~CAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14328401081765407624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261993076995357307.post-81548605076930655852013-01-02T09:35:35.929-05:002013-01-02T09:35:35.929-05:00Ward,

The Lattice panel on the top of the first fence is a perfect solution to make a fence that looks very attractive and origional....in Japanese style and design. I wonder if the latice which is almost like a ranma...was cut out of a solid panel of wood...or fabricated from individual pieces of wood???<br /><br />Hope you will discuss and show examples of covered Garden Gates.ward wilcoxnoreply@blogger.com
