Sonam Choephel and Ngawang discuss how Tibetan wood carving tools were made in the past. While nowadays, tools are bought ready-made, in the past wood carvers made their own. An apprentice had to find the metal and hammer it into shape themselves. Sonam Choephel then talks with Tashi and has him introduce and demonstrate the different tools used to carve Tibetan furniture. Tashi demonstrates a karil, a gouge for larger, rounded cuts; a smaller gouge for finer detail work; a sursum, a chisel with slightly rounded edges; a bent tool for reaching hard-to-reach surfaces; a kalok, a gouge with its cutting blade on one side; a kalep, a straight skew with an angled blade; a straight chisel with a flat blade; and more.
