Kumiko is a traditional Japanese technique. Thin wooden strips are cut and planed in angles to make all the different parts fit in the exact geometrical form for the particular Kumiko-pattern.

As participant in this Kumiko course you will be introduced to the Kumiko technique and learn how to use the special Japanese hand tools together with planing templates. You will learn how to assemble a square base-grid and how to adjust a planing template in order to plane the wooden strips in the angles to fit the chosen Kumiko pattern.

This two-days weekend course is both for those with and without carpentry experience.
Enthusiasm for woodwork is all you need together with your wanting to create your own Kumiko screen.

We no longer offer the opportunity to make a lamp!

Japanese saw
Small Japanese plane
3mm chisel
Marking knife
150mm steel ruler
