You're making me blush!
I'm not a builder, I'm a "self-taught handyman" (Well I was, I'm more into golf, vinyl jukeboxes, electric piano and tenor sax these days).
As a job I managed a succession of large superstores, it was all "sharp suits" highly polished shoes and creating budgets, in those days.

I've two videos of the lanterns, but I've not made enough posts to be allowed to link any, but they are easy to find on You Tube. Must be as they've had over 40,000 hits between them.

How to Make Authentic Looking Japanese Lanterns

"I don't mind if you don't like my manners, I don't like 'em myself. They're pretty bad. I grieve over them on long winter evenings." (Philip Marlowe to Vivian Rutledge).
