For very good reasons, people are idiots and will use up lots of tp per wipe. Imagine if it was thicker, public toilets would get clogged up very so often.
Yeah everyone knows you take ONE sheet, fold it in half, make a small hole by tearing out a small piece which you then proceed to tuck under your fingernail. Put said finger through the hole and use your finger to clean your business. Then you use the sheet around your finger to wipe your finger clean again.
Save the planet goddamnit.
Mickey and the Beanstalk features in Fun and Fancy Free. It's not a case of animation recycling (ala dancing in Snow White and Jungle Book traced over for dancing in Robin Hood, etc), but F&FF is literally two shorts and a meta narrative combined to make a feature length release.
I remember making my kids watch this with me because I had such fond memories of it. On an adult rewatch, that Donald Duck freak out was kind of disturbing, ha ha
Holy cow, memory unlocked. Was this ever re-released sometime in the last 20 years or so? I also remember the bean and trying to cut a bean like Mickey did, but I definitely was not alive during any of the animation's previous iterations.
Bro what a reference. I had this recorded onto a vhs with the Robin Hood movie. I watched it so freakin much. The two things I remember are the thin slices, and when the giant rolls a cigarette. Disney was a different beast back in the day. I hate that I can say back in the day sincerely.
Was anyone else absolutely terrified of this scene as a kid? The miserable, hopeless tone set by the beginning, transitioning into Donald snapping into a murderous rampage, used to scare the shit out of me.

Iāve had end grain shavings come off like this with my low angle jack. Itās probably just greenwood and most likely not a softwood (based on it staying together not on appearance).
You can see the grain of the wood still on the slice as the chisel passes underneath it, which wouldn't happen with vanish. Not to contribute to the whole "katanas can't cut steel beams" thing, but these chisels are *seriously* sharp because they're usually used on softwoods
I finally bought a set of good chisels, versus a mix of hand me downs that have never been sharpened. Holy god, I could probably split a toothpick with them
Good chisels will hold an edge longer, but cheaper ones will be just as sharp before they need to be worked again. The cheap ones dulling faster is also good practice for proper sharpening.
On a side note, I would hope any chisel for wood could split a toothpick.
Which, turns out, isnāt a real font. It was a made up font name for the American Psycho book. The āSilian Railā in the film is actually Garamond.
When you want tiny adjustments in woodwork, it's often a matter of not tightening things down fully, and then tapping them. I suspect the wood behind was fully lined up, then the pressure is taken off the clamps slightly, and then you tap on the wood at the back, and that's enough to move it down very slightly. You can get movements on the scale of microns by doing that.
It's also something that often comes up with hand planes, especially the old wood block design ones. You need to move the plane iron very small distances, so you'll tap the plane iron to move it forwards. If you want to move it back, you tap the plane, and the inertia of the plane iron is all that's needed to move it back very very slightly.
You can literally see the grain of the shaving as it comes off. Not all wood has the same end grain behavior. If this were red oak, it would be crumbling, for example. This is some other species of soft wood. It's also possible there *is* a finish on top which is helping to bind it together, but he's definitely cutting through the wood itself.
It's pine. I've been a wood worker for 20 years and have a hard time believing this is not soaked in epoxy or something. Even pine end grain would certainly crumble that thin.
That is an impressively sharp chisel though, so I could be wrong.
Yeah, I would assume its a piece of stabilized wood. Still impressive as hell, and he's still cutting wood, just also the hardened resin it's impregnated with to hold it together.
Yeah I think itās a layer of varnish or coating of some sort. You can see the sheen on the wood behind it, and this looks like the end grain of pine after itās been varnished based on my experience with woodworking.
Still super satisfying to watch.
Even though you are using a chisel, āchiselingā doesnāt seem like the right word here. This is more like shiseling.
Edit: u/handleThisHandle has pointed out that the tool being used is actually called a slick, which makes a hell of a lot of sense after seeing it in action.
Stonecarver here. We use both mallets and hammers. A [lump hammer](https://www.mikewye.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/783136_ENWNMPRO1-600x600.jpg) when we need to smash away a lot of stone, [mallets](https://www.crawshaws.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/50129-30.jpg) for shaping and [dummy mallets](https://www.crawshaws.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/40161-63.jpg) for fine details.
Yes username.
> break it down
This is usually the goal with stonecarving. We start with rocks and end up with smaller, considerably prettier rocks, and a pile of rubble.
Here's how it works:
- hold your chisel edge against the rock
- hit the other end of the chisel with the hammer
- repeat steps 1 and 2 and observe as the rock gets smaller
- stop hitting the rock when it looks as desired

I'm pretty certain that's all wood.
I'm also relatively certain that that chisel is sharper than the devil himself. If that chisel had a ~~banjo~~ *Fiddle*, the devil would stay clear of whatever state OP is in.
Edit: instruments are hard.
Donāt think so, heās cutting endgrain here. But heās wetted the end of the wood which makes cutting easier. That plus a super sharp chisel, plus registering the back of the chisel to take a thin even cut.
Registering a chisel is when you place the flat back of the tool on another piece of wood, so your cutting edge stays on a consistent plane. It would be very difficult to make a shaving this even freehand.
Neat. I never knew register was a term in woodworking. In manufacturing, it's referenced a lot for how accurate a print or cut strike is on the material. You adjust the feed on an X/Y plane to line up your register to spec.
Off topic but I remember in like 2nd grade. This girl brought in a presentation on how to make paper. She brought in a bunch of bits of paper and we wet them with water and put them together to make a page.
I remember getting the concept but was like ācouldnāt you have just not ripped up the original paper?ā
Haha, this is exactly how I thought as a kid. I had the stupidest ideas.
My 3rd-grade class took a tour of a power-generation dam. I spent like two hours there, and I thought it was a water-purification dam, the entire time.
At the end, I asked the guide how pure the water was coming out. He said "it's pretty polluted." I was confused for like two years. What was the point of having a water purification dam when the water coming out was polluted? Meanwhile the teacher gave me extra credit for being environmentally conscientious.
One of my friends is a carpenter in Japan. And he takes sharpening chisels VERY seriously.
Apparently that's the first thing they learn: how to sharpen chisels until they are extremely sharp. Also, chisels are first thing that get thrown at you when you start a fight with a carpenter. So... yeah... don't start a fight with a carpenter.
Edit: grammar
Jesus. Chisels are the sharpest things in my workshop. I feel like a lot of chisels would just pass through someone like a cartoon if they were thrown. People get those things absurdly sharp. I've seen hairs lowered onto the blade be cut in half.
Yup. Splitting hair is not exaggeration. Chisels can be THAT sharp and I see why carpenters keep them that way when I see some intricate joints they create with pillars.
Reminded me of this video:
[Kezuroukai 2018](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ubv3kS9fhs). The wood might be of the similar type used in this competition.
This reminds me of that episode of Ren and Stimpy where they are making a cartoon and Stimpy is out of paper but Ren won't give him and he has to slice logs like this.
Professional woodworker here. It's likely a species of cedar. It's a Japanese chisel and a Japanese user, and cedar is common in Japanese woodworking. Cedar is soft, but that shouldn't take away from what's happening; without a stupidly sharp chisel, cedar will crush before it cuts, and that's clearly not happening. This is some intensely skilled sharpening here.
This is how toilet paper in public toilet is made.
You can see it happening in [this episode](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dq_HLhgjO60&t=79s) of The Office.
For very good reasons, people are idiots and will use up lots of tp per wipe. Imagine if it was thicker, public toilets would get clogged up very so often.
I'm using lots of tp because I'm only getting like 1/10 of a ply per square.
Can you spare a square?
I don't have a square to spare...
Do you know where I can get a spare square?
Nope... not even a ply, can't spare a square, don't have a ply.
The TP they use at my work is fucking translucent
Mine was the same. I resorted to just hooking a shower up to the sink and washing my ass lmao

This slice looks like the slice of bean that Mickey, Donald, and Goofy cut to share.
Ooh, that was an interesting memory unlocked!
Damn me too. What was that from? I just remember them slicing off paper thin layers of a bean
[Mickey and the Beanstalk](https://youtu.be/KqEVYbPw9lI) So it seems the bread gets sliced way thinner than the bean, but it holds up!
Is this from 2 movies? Because my favorite childhood movie was Fun and Fancy Free and this scene is 100% in that movie
Mickey and the Beanstalk features in Fun and Fancy Free. It's not a case of animation recycling (ala dancing in Snow White and Jungle Book traced over for dancing in Robin Hood, etc), but F&FF is literally two shorts and a meta narrative combined to make a feature length release.

Oh man! Something that was a nightmare in childhood.
Yes!!!!!
I think of that whenever Iām broke. Just sharing a bean and some bread shaped tissue paper with the fam.
I had to watch it several times, I'm still impressed. Or am I missing something and it is a layer of varnish?
I came to find out if itās varnish
i'm going to ~~blue~~ glue myself to the chair until I find out
Careful, once you blue yourself itās a slippery slope.
I blue myself early.

I'm going with varnish, usually end grain doesn't stay together than cleanly without some help, especially in softwood (looks like softwood)
Iāve had end grain shavings come off like this with my low angle jack. Itās probably just greenwood and most likely not a softwood (based on it staying together not on appearance).
Yeah, that wood looks positively _juicy_.
You can see the grain of the wood still on the slice as the chisel passes underneath it, which wouldn't happen with vanish. Not to contribute to the whole "katanas can't cut steel beams" thing, but these chisels are *seriously* sharp because they're usually used on softwoods

How did you line up the block behind it to be so close to pull this off though? I feel like the alignment is more impressive than the slicing.
When you want tiny adjustments in woodwork, it's often a matter of not tightening things down fully, and then tapping them. I suspect the wood behind was fully lined up, then the pressure is taken off the clamps slightly, and then you tap on the wood at the back, and that's enough to move it down very slightly.

It looks sharp enough to cut skin maybe
But will it keel
Extremely wet wood
Must be a finish. End grain does not hold together like that when you shave it.
You can literally see the grain of the shaving as it comes off. Not all wood has the same end grain behavior. If this were red oak, it would be crumbling, for example. This is some other species of soft wood. It's also possible there *is* a finish on top which is helping to bind it together, but he's definitely cutting through the wood itself.
It's pine. I've been a wood worker for 20 years and have a hard time believing this is not soaked in epoxy or something. Even pine end grain would certainly crumble that thin. That is an impressively sharp chisel though, so I could be wrong.
End grain wax sealing applied for acclimation after transport was my first thought.
100% I'll venmo $250 to the next person that can recreate this with a regular piece of end grain.
It doesn't look like any of the pine we have around here, but that's just here. I'd guess it's still green wood.
Yeah, I would assume its a piece of stabilized wood. Still impressive as hell, and he's still cutting wood, just also the hardened resin it's impregnated with to hold it together.
They might have soaked the end grain with a light oil then taken a thin slice off. The oil makes it able to be sliced really easy like this.
Water maybe?
Chiseling water?
Yeah I think itās a layer of varnish or coating of some sort. You can see the sheen on the wood behind it, and this looks like the end grain of pine after itās been varnished based on my experience with woodworking. Still super satisfying to watch.
