Did you know that wood could be cut to be as thin as tissue paper? Well, it can with a wood-shaving tool.
In this video, we bring you all kinds of examples of wood being cut in just such a matter. Watch as this powerful yet sleek tool cuts pieces of woods into thin smooth slices. Thought of as an art in Japan, every year wood-shaving competitions are held and people compete to get the thinnest slice.
The video comes from Dylan Iwakuni and it can keep you entertained for hours... well at least minutes.
