and just over here we found a little building the guy inside is making tatami
mat so I'm gonna go inside and see whether we can do a little bit of
filming just ask him if he'd show us how he makes tatami how exciting -
Tatami - Tatami yeah yeah did Tatami thank that's cool
are you making here there's a guy actually making tatami mats never seen
it made before you can see you've got this lovely sandwich here that's okay
Wow amazing
stitched on a little fabric
Oh
Tatami base and then the sides they have
then he comes out of this machine this is on the edge and then wraps it over
pitches it on this like an overlapping pitch here so they're pretty thick these
tatami bases yeah pretty thick and I think what happens to show is he's
putting the on I don't think he probably has to put a fabric on the underside
thank you thank you thank you how beautiful so we got a sound

building and inside the guy is making tatami mats whose give me a
beautiful little sample here and we'll treasure that I really treasure that

guy there I mean what a craft and how kind of him to give us our own little
piece of tatami to take away as a souvenir fantastic and we got this
