Chopstick Making Experience Process 1. Choose Your Length
Participants begin by selecting the length of their chopsticks. The standard size is 23 cm, but shorter options such as 21 cm or 19 cm are also available.
2. Shape the Chopsticks
Using special tools, participants carve the wooden sticks from a square shape into their preferred style. They can adjust the thickness and create either round or square chopsticks. Staff members provide careful guidance, making the process safe and beginner-friendly.
3. Sand and Smooth
Participants use sandpaper to smooth the surface. By checking the texture by hand, they can refine the grip and comfort to their liking.
