The designer periodically dedicates a portion of time to prepare a large batch of bowl stand legs to replenish stock. This meticulous process takes place on a small balcony, chosen specifically because it is free from drifting wood dust that could otherwise interfere with the work.

Each batch consists of a significant number of legs, and every wooden stick requires careful attention. Due to this detailed work, the designer is often humorously compared to a sausage vendor tending to sausages on a grill. Each leg is picked up, sanded, and cleaned thoroughly before being individually varnished. During each step, careful handling is essential. Once varnished, the legs need to be turned over after a minute or two, to inspect for any spots with inadequate varnish or excess drips. This process is then repeated.

Often, one or two days pass by swiftly in this manner, and sometimes, after long hours of work, a spontaneous smile might appear. 🤪
