Kurahito Craft demonstrates transforming a hard slab of wood into a flexible and see-through lampshade cover without using ingredients to soften the wood.
The process involves shaping the wood into an oval using a table saw, cutting it in small steps, and using a hand plane to smooth sharp corners.
The technique allows creating structures and fixtures from wood without additives, resulting in designs suited for specific functions.
The end result is a flexible wooden lampshade cover that can bend without breaking and hold its shape when fitted with a lightbulb.
