About
Team Yataiki (a non-profit group)
Team
Yataiki is a volunteer organization of woodworkers with a particular
interest in Japanese hand tools, joinery and other allied traditional
crafts.
We are committed to bringing Miyano Endo-san to the SF Bay Area
for unique hands-on instruction in use of the Japanese charcoal
forge for blacksmithing, blade and saw making. Team Yataiki is working
within the non-profit educational organization of the Arques School
of Traditional Boatbuilding†.

†The Arques School of Traditional Boatbuilding
was established in 1996 as a non-profit educational organization
and has a widely recognized reputation for its apprenticeship program
in wooden boat building. The school is generously providing a space
on their property in Sausalito for construction of the facilities
and forge which makes these unique classes possible. For more information
