I love your woodworking, and your videos are an inspiration to thousands of people. I'm sure many an aspiring woodworker like me, just likes to watch you work. It is very calming and almost meditative to just watch a master craftsman. I have the same passion for work, but I work in computers and don't really have the opportunity to share my work like this. Thank you for taking to time to show us the spirit of woodworking in Japan.

I wonder if East Asian walnut is the same or similar to butternut. Butternut is like, the North American "white walnut". It's quite soft though compared to other hard woods. Either way, I love the grain of the East Asian walnut. Edit: I did some quick research. I believe what Natsuki uses is Juglans Mandshurica, that's the latin name. Black walnut, Juglans Nigra. Butternut, juglans cinerea. Interesting. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juglans

If you Google "Japanese F-Type bit" you should find plenty of buy links. They're essentially auger bits. I have a couple and if find they don't tug through a workpiece like western augers which I find nice for control. They also leave an incredibly clean cut for such a bit. They're not cheap but well worth trying out.
