Looking to explore the beauty and intricacy of Kumiko woodworking? Our Kumiko woodworking kit is the perfect place to start. This kit includes two Kumiko jigs and precut Kumiko strips that will allow you to create the stunning Asa-no-ha pattern from your kitchen table.
The jigs included in this kit have been carefully designed to ensure precision and accuracy in your Kumiko woodworking projects. They are handmade in Australia from high-quality recycled Messmate and Redgum with brass fittings that are durable and beautiful to use. With these jigs, you'll be able to create clean and consistent cuts in your Kumiko strips, allowing you to achieve the perfect fit and alignment in your Asa-no-ha pattern.
The Kumiko strips included in this kit are made from a sustainably sourced Tasmanian Huon Pine that is a striking timber with a lovely aroma. The frame strips have been pre-cut and notched, saving you time and effort in your Kumiko woodworking project. The pattern strips have been milled to the correct width and thickness, to allow you to simply size the pieces using the included jigs to suit the pattern.
