Introduction: DIY Chopsticks & Chopsticks Rest
I tried making chopsticks and chopsticks rest in a unique way by using an electric drill and an angle grinder .
Step 1: Cut Wood Dowel
Prepare a wood dowel (around φ12mm) and cut the right length. I used a Japanese cypress dowel in this time.
Step 2: Chopsticks
Set the dowel to an electric drill and grind by an angle grinder, then finish with sandpaper. Please refer to the video above.
Step 3: Chopsticks Rest
Do the same process as the chopsticks.
Step 4: Done!
Finish by hand work. I made a different shape of chopsticks rest and applied Urushi (Japanese lacquer) to that rest and chopsticks.
