Target shooting and clock making
Friday, March 20 (national holiday)
Forest Museum “Mokumu” was bustling with visitors.

Wooden craft maker Sasaki Kogei
held a clock-making workshop on the final day of the exhibition.

At the same time, visitors could try target shooting with wooden toy guns.

At the clock-making table,
I was surprised by the wide variety of numbers and decorative pieces to stick onto the dials.

For some reason, mushrooms were extremely popular among the boys.

They glued parts together and hammered in nails to secure them…
and in about 30 minutes each person finished an original clock.

With batteries set in the back, they really work.

One child hugged his finished piece protectively, saying he would display it in his room.

Meanwhile, the target shooting guns were impressive.

They can hold six rubber bands at once and fire in rapid succession.

Kids who wanted to aim from farther away
lay on their bellies on a chair set back a little to take careful aim.

They looked just like snipers.

The small animal keychain prizes were adorable.

Thank you to everyone who came!
