Last week, author and craftsman, Jay van Arsdale, founder of Daiku Dojo, a Japanese Woodworking group and one of our WIA 2011 instructors, sent me this link to a video on some of the technology that is being employed in Japan to combat the diminishing work force of skilled carpenters and the desire to eliminate waste of the job site.
As someone who has worked as a carpenter here in the states, and has witnessed the amount of waste that occurs on each job, this technology is really amazing.
