  • In this video, our General Manager Bill takes us around his house to do some maintenance to his yakisugi "shou sugi ban" fence and privacy wall. From looking at the weathering and checking on the fastening nails, to washing and finally oiling, Bill shows you ways that you can take care of your shou sugi ban.
    Wood used: Japanese Cypress (Cryptomeria japanica) commonly referred to in Japanese as "Sugi" (yaki=charred, sugi=cypress)

    How is the oil process environmentally friendly over the years of rain? I would think Shou Sugi Ban wood with a two part paint or hardened sealant would seal the wood over a decade at least. No etching and mixing with the ground around it. Though not a decade, our far side gate someone thought to build with 2X3" white pine was already eroded before we got the place and the termites beat me to it. So I framed a new one using 2" X 4" quality Fir, and 1" rough cut fir boards, leaving 3/4" gaps between the boards and burnt the whole gate and covered it with a 2-part ash grey epoxy paint for garage floors. Though it only sees the afternoon sun, after 8 years it still looks new. I'm totally impressed by the Shou Sugi Ban process. Who would ever think burning wood preserves it?

      UV rays can speed up the aging/weathering process of the siding, though you won't be getting as much wind/rain as other parts of the country. Yakisugi has been used across a variety of climates to great success in Japan for centuries. An oil coating with additional UV protection reapplied periodically every few years should do the trick.

    Does the Shou Sugi Ban technique enhance the weathering capability of siding wood? Or is it primarily an aesthetic treatment?

    I want to try Shou Sugi Ban finish on some cedar planter boxes that I’m making. Once I burn the wood (and rinse with a hose), what’s a good outdoor (flat) sealant I should put on it to seal in the black? I don’t really want to brush the finish first because I want it really black

      Yakisugi is used in all climates in Japan indiscriminately. It holds up well even in their far northern climate, which is very cold and snowy in the winter.

    Great video, why do you use nails instead of screws?

    • @pomaranczowegury2503
      @pomaranczowegury2503 Před 2 lety +3

      if you didnt found answer yet. Screws like to go inside the wood more when it get wet. I mean proper plank is dry, not as dry for outside purpose but still. Or it will dry on sun anyways. Issue with screws is that they are sucked into wood while it get more moistured. So you have dry plank and when it get moisture from air, wood will ,,suck" screw into it, its like wood rotate screws. That wil cause cracks, bcs if screw is nicely placed into wood, and it will go further it will cause the wood to crank. Its not allways issue, but i might happen.
      Also i think nails are cheaper, and as shown on video he like to hammer them better soemtimes haha.
      Sorry for my english but i didnt learned to share my poor carpentry knowlege in english haha

    • @JenkinsStevenD
      @JenkinsStevenD Před 2 lety +1

      Depends on the structure. If it is large, like a house, nails. They handle thermal expansion and contraction better without damaging the wood which is why nails are still used on houses. I'd recommend checking out Stumpy Nub's channel. He has a video where he talks about how old school nails are the best but only went out of style because of manufacturability.

    If you did a a deeper char, I am not sure you would be having this issue.

    • @NakamotoForestryNorthAmerica
      @NakamotoForestryNorthAmerica  Před 3 lety +6

      In what way? Charring the wood more than we already do would compromise the structural integrity and soot would flake off easier - we already char deeper than any other yakisugi manufacturer in NA because we use the Japanese heat treatment method that actually brings out the pest/fire/weather resistant qualities in the wood, not a blowtorch for a simple cosmetic burn that will wear off in a few years.
