It's already been a few days since we moved to this place, and it's already September.
I think it's gotten a little cooler in the morning and evening.
During the midsummer, the leaves didn't grow very much, but now they're growing quite a bit.
It's coming along well.
The other day, I got a request from a viewer of the bonsai garden.
I'd like to show you how to make a cutting edge for the wheels.
There are two types of wheels.
This one has a groove here.
I'm going to make a wheel with this groove as a cutting edge.
This one has a groove here, so you can see where you can make a cutting edge.
It starts from the groove.
This one is big, but it doesn't have a groove or anything.
I'm going to show you where you can make a cutting edge.
If you look at this, you can see that there's something like this.
This is where it's dead.
You're going to start with the branches.
I'm going to make a cutting edge for this part of the branch.
And this one.
You've cut a branch before, haven't you?
I'm going to make a cutting edge for this part and make a wheel.
I always say this, but when you use a wheel, it's no good.
Let's cut it with a chisel so that it can be twisted like this with a chisel.
If you cut it like this, it's against the fibers.
It hurts the fibers.
It means the water will run out.
It's like cutting a straight line diagonally.
It's better not to do that.
You can't make it thinner.
This time, I'd like to do it in an easy-to-understand way.
The first thing I'm going to do is clean it up.
I have to see what kind of flow this grain is in.
I don't have enough cleaning yet, so I'd like to take a look at the flow of the grain.
I think this brass brush is better.
This is the wire one.
It's a little too hard, so there's a chance it'll go all the way inside.
I can get it off well.
I did it earlier and it came off here.
A lot of things came out.
It's okay if it's this much.
I'm using a wire.
I think this brass brush is better.
It's about how far you can get the old skin off.
You mean the color of the sweet potato?
Yes, it's called sweet potato skin.
I'm going to clean it up to the sweet potato skin.
I have a name tag on it.
Do you want me to take it off?
This is a 20% sale at Ueno Green Club.
What?
I bought it for 5,000 yen and it's 20% off.
That's a good deal.
Please come to Ueno Green Club.
It's going to take a while to clean this up.
I'll do it like this.
If possible, along the tree.
Along the flow of the tree?
Not like this.
Don't go against it.
Take it along the flow of the tree.
How far can you get the old skin off?
This is it.
The color of the sweet potato skin.
I'm going to get it this far.
If I go any further, white stuff will come out.
I'm trying not to go any further.
If you just rub it with a brush,
you won't be able to get to the small details.
I'm going to use tweezers to peel it off.
The reason I'm doing this is
because the old skin is hard.
When you rub it with a brush,
it will come off.
So I'm going to get rid of the small details.
This is a bit of a time-consuming job.
I'm going to get rid of all the hard parts.
Do you have a small brush?
What?
A small brush.
That's a good idea.
That's a good idea, too.
This brush is good, too.
It's good for small details.
This is a stainless steel brush.
It's a bonsai tree.
Thank you.
There are three bonsai trees.
I think there are two.
I sell this, too.
It's good for small details like this.
This is convenient.
If it's a product, it's this big.
This doesn't fit.
This small brush doesn't fit.
Let's just go this far.
Then I'll pull it up.
Next,
I'm not perfect yet,
but I'm going to clean it
while making water.
If it doesn't open,
I'll clean it.
Then you can see the flow.
I'm going to make a tool.
I'll start from the top of this.
I'll do it from the top.
From here and from your side.
I'll draw a line here.
If I don't clean it well,
it won't go well.
I'll draw a line here.
While looking at the tree.
This is facing this way.
The cleaning is not yet complete.
If you don't do it right, you'll end up with a line like this.
It's still not enough.
If there's still black leather, you can't get it right.
The water level isn't going against it at all.
It's just floating along the flow.
If you don't do it right, you'll end up with a line like this.
Is that how thin it should be at first?
At first, even if you make a mistake, it'll shrink.
It'll stick together.
If it doesn't look good, you can leave it as it is.
It'll stick together if you don't do it right.
I'm going to make one first.
I'm going to go all the way down.
This is where it's easy to do.
It's coming in here.
It looks hard.
It's pretty hard to make.
It's decided whether this tree will live or die.
It's quite sticky.
It's twisted.
It's pretty twisted.
I don't know the thickness.
It'll be interesting if it's a board.
It's still round.
I'm not going to make it a board this time.
I'm just going to make the water clear.
This time, I'm going to peel the skin off.
I'm going to make the water clear.
So that you can see the flow.
It's better to leave it for about a year.
Leave it for about a year.
There's something like a skin on this side.
If you scrape this off a little bit, it'll get a chain.
The white part gets softer.
If you scrape off the white part, you'll get a chain.
I put a line on one side.
Turn around.
It's twisted here.
It's twisted again and it's coming in here.
It's wide there.
It's spread out here.
It's spread out.
It's going to go up here.
It's actually going to go down.
It's going to go through here, right?
I'll take it while looking at it when the other one comes in.
It's going to go up here.
I'll put another one in here.
It's going to come out.
It's spread out.
It's going to go through the top.
Is that from the ginseng?
It's going to pull down from here.
It's going to go up from here.
I don't know if it's going to fit in here.
If it doesn't fit, it's okay if it gets in the branch.
If you can see the flow, you can keep taking it.
It's going to go in a weird place.
I don't know if it's going to rotate.
That's amazing.
I don't know if it's going to twist here.
I can't see it.
That's why it's thick.
If you cut it with a chalk, it'll cut like this.
There's a possibility that it'll go into the branch.
There's a possibility that it'll go into this.
If it's about half, it's okay, but if it goes into the root, it's going to be bad.
That's amazing.
I don't know if it's going to go in here.
It's going to go into the branch.
I hope you avoid this.
If you take it this way, it's okay if it goes in half of the branch.
I see.
It's alive.
To be honest, if you make it a board wheel, you can make it even if it's this thick.
You can make it.
If you control the wheel.
I feel like I can make it any way I want.
This is good.
It's avoiding the branch.
It's facing this way.
That's right.
It's twisted a lot.
It's in here.
The top branch?
Yeah.
It's in this wheel.
Wheel?
It's in the root.
It's perfect.
It's connected here.
At first I thought it was the branch in front of it.
Yeah.
It's going to go in here.
I wonder if the person who made it is thinking about putting the wheel in here.
One of them is coming from this branch.
Is it coming?
I don't know if it's going to go up.
I'll put another one here.
I'll spread it out.
From here?
Is this the start?
I'll spread it out about this width.
The width of this tree and this tree.
The thickness of the tree.
I'll spread it out with this line.
I think it's a little early in the season.
The skin is still peeling off.
I think it's better to do it in the summer.
I think it's better to take the white part cleanly.
I'll take the skin off.
The skin will come back.
It's a little deep because it comes back.
I'll take the white part.
I've been pulling it all the way from here.
There are times when it spreads naturally.
I've been pulling it all the way from here.
I went this width.
I went this width from here.
If you follow it naturally, it will spread.
There's water inside the wheel.
I think it's more powerful to have a wheel on the outside.
I've been able to do this.
I think I can make a wheel out of this board.
If you cut the tree thinner next year, this will come out.
I see.
You can cut this side and this side.
Then it will be a wheel.
Cut both sides.
The wheel is coming out of the water.
I'm going to take this off.
It's the top of the head.
If you put the edge of the water on it later, it will naturally become a board.
I've done it so far.
There's still a long way to go.
This part is wide.
I don't need this.
I'll take this off.
I haven't cut this part yet.
I haven't cut it halfway yet.
I think I can spread it a little more.
It's not connected to the core.
It's going to be a lot wider.
I'm going to pull it down a little more.
Let's review.
Start from the core and pass it down one line.
In the case of this tree.
After that, decide the width and pass another line.
I'll make another line.
I'm going to make two.
You're going to connect them.
Then there's only one water line.
If you want to make the water line thinner, you can take it off.
I see.
You're going to spread it out.
I'm going to spread it out.
The water line should be about one-third of the way.
I see.
If it's thin, it's going to be a board.
If there's a tree like this, there's a pattern where you put wheels on both sides.
I'm going to make two.
I'm not going to put two in.
I'm going to put one in.
It doesn't matter if it's in the branch.
I see.
Maybe the reason why you're putting wheels on both sides is because you're trying to make the tree thicker.
Maybe that's right.
When you buy something like that, you're going to connect the two wheels to one.
Then you make the wheels.
That's right.
That's when you put the wheels in.
But in the case of rough wood, it's better to bend it first.
There's a branch that's going to wither.
I think it's better to put the wheels in after that.
Bend it and make the wheels from where it's withered.
I've been doing this before.
If there's a tree like this, I'm pulling out the branches to make a tree.
If you put the wheels in later, it's going to go in a crazy place.
Bend it while there are a lot of branches.
Then put the wheels on it.
Then you don't have to worry about the wheels getting in the branches.
If you have a few branches, you can make a tree.
That's right.
This is the way the teacher does it.
That's right.
I'm sure each of you has your own way of doing it.
I hope you'll refer to it first.
That's it for now.
I'm almost done peeling the skin.
I haven't cut it at all.
I just peeled the skin.
I didn't cut the tree at all.
It's pretty thick.
It's been connected from the bottom.
It's all connected in one piece.
There was a jin.
Most of the time, this wheel passes through the jin.
It's been through.
It's been through about half of this.
It's all in here.
Because it's done here.
And here.
You can spread this out more.
And this is all connected.
It's all connected here.
You can connect the jin like this.
You can cut it a little more.
I think I did a good job.
And the problem with the axis is...
A little more.
That's right.
The feet.
Lower the feet a little more.
I don't think there's any more room here.
I think it's okay to lower it.
It's tied up somewhere.
Tie it up and shrink it.
If you lower it like this.
It's beautiful here.
The wheels are beautiful.
There were a lot of points of contact.
In the case of the heart, it's better to have a twist.
That's right.
Is it okay to do this all at once?
It's okay.
This is because it's facing the river as it is.
There are places where more than half of this is already taken.
It's okay.
It's just that it's a little early now.
If you're not used to it, everything else will go in.
It's because the skin peels off.
I see.
In the cold season, it's hard to peel off the skin.
But it doesn't go in until it's extra.
I see.
If you put a line on it, it'll go in.
Don't go against the tree.
If you don't go against it and attach it like this.
The tree is already making a pattern.
I see.
Leave it like this for a while.
Yes.
After it gets hard here.
There are places where the surface is a little slippery.
If you peel this off, there will be a little rust.
I see.
If the surface is a little rusty.
If you're going to do this.
I'm going to make a sculpture.
I'm going to take this corner.
It's the edge, isn't it?
Only the edge.
Make a line like this.
So that the top part remains.
Then the meat will be wrapped like this.
The meat will be wrapped like this.
You have to scrape this edge cleanly.
Otherwise, the meat won't be wrapped well.
You don't pull it with tweezers like this.
It's like peeling it off.
Then the edge will come off cleanly.
And the point is.
You don't have to go all the way to the root.
You see, there's a lot of rust here.
This is the one I peeled off.
Don't take it all off.
Leave a little water.
Like this.
If you go all the way down, it will rot.
Leave it as if there is water around it.
That's the point.
So this is how you do it.
It was a more interesting tree than I thought.
I was wondering what was going on around here.
There are a lot of dots.
I can't carve this kind of dent.
This is the part.
After this, you can peel off the white part.
I just peeled off the skin.
It's the same as that.
So I don't have to wire it up.
You can do it.
I can do it today.
You can wire it up.
There's not much room for this tree.
You can wire it up and carve it next year.
I want to do it from above.
It's straight here.
Here.
I want to do it here.
You can fix it with a wire.
I want to do it.
I think it's going to shrink a little.
I think so.
I think it's going to be a very good tree.
I think so, too.
I think it's good to have a clear wheel.
I think so, too.
Today, I'm going to show you how to put the wheel in the first place.
I'm going to show you where to cut the tree.
I'm a little worried.
Are you worried?
I'm fine.
You cut the wrong part.
I cut it in the middle.
If the branch is safe, it's okay.
I cut it in the middle.
That's all for today.
Thank you very much.
