And that is a true craftsman at work.
Nice, I will never achieve that level. That is just beautiful work.

Gorgeous. The Japanese apparently invented "sharp" eons ago.
Like most Japanese joinery/woodworking, a major requirement appears to be the ability to sit cross legged on the floor ... unfortunately, gonna have to pass on that requirement alone.

I think they were the ones that invented "scary sharp", long before it showed up here.
The metal in that plane must be something really special.

The box is pretty nice too...I mean really. I wouldn't mind see how he applies and trims the veneer around the top edge, for instance. Whether he might do something besides the "vacuum" method?
I'm up to 4x on the video...

Typically a mixture of glycerin and water applied to the veneer helps to make it more flexible and manageable.

Mother had a jewel box like that - just not as fancy. Fewer 'atoms' in the design and likely on the road to this type.
Nice to see how it was made.
Thanks, Martin
