For what does he use the leaf? Its like sanding with a very fine grit, maybe? Amazing video, love it

[@AwesomeKazuaki]

Yes. he said "This is leaf of Muku(Aphananthe aspera) and has needles on back, and is fine than that stalk".

***** i'm going to try but i don't know wood working at all , what do you mean by Finishes used in traditional Japanese woodworking ? At 1:10 they say that they use the stem of a Japanese plant called Tokusa or Equisetum in its latin botanical name , i don7t know the name in english . They say that they use it because it doesn't damage the wood　since it has straight abrasive but smooth lines on its stem and also because the Tokusa has a little oil in it, it sands but also polishes and nourishes the wood without damage　and is easy to use . He says that when you use Tokusa to sand the wood you can get the same soft and smooth texture as touching human skin and it brings out the natural beauty and shine of the wood . then he used the autumn fallen leaf of the Mokunoki or Heather tree in English , because the back of the leaf is covered in tiny needles which allows and even finer sanding and then he uses dried natural wax made from Ibota or privet ( i really don't know how they can make wax out of a plant and he doesn't explain it) He just says that the wood absorb the wax and it akes its natural shine and beauty last longer and avoid stains that's all he says

[@olafurssonkyllian8153]

***** Ok i got it , the Privet tree is often infested with the larvae of a moth and the wax they use in this video is the secretion of the Larvae in the Privet Tree . The Japanese name for this wax is called Ibotaro.

toolmazing lil late but the sanding plant is called scouring rush or horsetail in english. I first came across the plant at the bottom of the grand canyon, we camped at ghost ranch and the rush was all over the banks of the river. I messed around with it for hours, it has a plastic straw rigidity but with fine textured strands like a water bottle cap. I noticed i could really polish the tops of my finger nails before i knew it was used for woodworking. The japanese boil it and then let it dry

My Japanese is almost non-existent, but I'm pretty sure she said they use rice paste to glue everything together...

[@danwittmayer6539]

AV3NG3R00 I hope I am not too late in responding regarding the rice paste used in a glue-assisted joint. There is a demo in a video which preceeds this one. My revered teacher in college, Toshio Odate fashioned an oddly shaped, pointed wooden bat which he then used to mash some cooked rice into glue. I will include the link.

[@TheJacali]

What is the glue made of? It looks organic as fuck

[@seanunger9726]

It is made out of rice
