A while back, mention of a video showing what happens on a microscopic level when planing was made here. One barrier to watching this video was that it is Japanese. Or at least it's a barrier to me, since I don't know Japanese.
Using a translation of the audio and titles from this video by Mia Iwasaki, I added subtitles to the Kawai and Kato video. The subtitles I added were based on Mia's translation. I did revise her translation a bit taking into account terminology that woodworkers (American woodworkers, at least) would use. I tried to match the translation to the audio as best as I could. If anyone who actually knows Japanese catches any mistakes, please let me know. I can make edits and reupload the video.
But at least there's a subtitled version of the video now.
Thanks to Mia, Bill Tindall, and Professors Kawai and Kato for their generosity and work.
You can watch the video here.
Enjoy!
