Because something like this would have never, never ever be interesting to me.
There is this artisan in Japan, he fixes old art pieces and practically anything old and needs to be fixed.
A father tries to give his old dictionary to his daughter as she gets accepted to college.
She, being a modern young girl refuses the old ugly and almost dirty dictionary saying it will be embarrassing to bring it around. So the father brings this dictionary to the master.
He does magic and makes the dictionary into a brand new one.

It's a shame I can't find any English subtitle for those of you who are not familiar with Japanese but you can read through the post and you will see what I am marveling at.
And even watching the youtube piece would be amusing, you don't need to understand what they are saying, watching what he does would just wow you.

I love these things. Completely floored by the skill and patience.
Really amazing right?
I would panic if anyone asked me to fix that tattered dictionary! The whole work is artistic, meaningful and did I say amazing?
