     For the first time, the material used will be hiba wood found in the Aomori prefecture in the northeast of Honshu. It is 75% cheaper than cypress, can be worked easily, and is even more resistant to water and insect damage than cypress. However, hiba has a strong tendency to develop shrinkage cracks and gives off a pungent smell.
