What could be more mundane and boring than aluminum foil? We use it for packaging and cooking products — and there is nothing exciting about it. Only one Japanese jeweler doesn't think so. On his Twitter page, he posted the result of many days of work — he processed a lump of ordinary foil in every possible way and eventually brought it to a perfectly smooth and shiny state.
This is where the nationwide Japanese obsession with such a simple and budget idea from the DIY section began. All over the country, aluminum foil balls are being polished and leveled with a hammer and proudly post their achievements on social networks.
It all starts with such an ordinary dense foil ball.
Then, thanks to a certain amount of determination…
...and after countless of the same hammer movements…
...dozens of hours of polishing later…
...this ball turns into a brilliant perfection.
Social network users fell in love with the idea and also rushed to polish.
