Challenging the Brush Tip Starch Hardening!
Shodo Daisuki – Episode 11
With a brush craftsman as a guest, “Shimauchi” from Shodo Daisuki takes on the challenge of starch-hardening a small brush!
Shodo Daisuki Episode 11 – Video Overview
This video features Shimauchi demonstrating the technique of starch-hardening a small brush.
Small brushes are difficult to handle—they can become over-softened or lose their firmness during maintenance. However, using starch, they can be restored to their original condition.
In the video, a brush craftsman is invited to demonstrate the technique, after which Shimauchi also attempts it.
Although the craftsman preferred not to show his face, he shared his valuable skills for Shimauchi’s sake.
First, the craftsman demonstrates, and then Shimauchi gives it a try.
Although it was difficult at first, with the craftsman’s advice, Shimauchi eventually succeeded in starch-hardening the brush properly.
Shimauchi emphasizes that knowing this technique allows one to use brushes for a long time, and encourages viewers to try it themselves.
He also mentions the importance of offering hands-on experiences through videos like this—things viewers normally cannot experience.
Finally, he asks viewers to subscribe, leave a like, and submit requests for experiences they would like him to try.
