In the video, we see a person's hand holding a piece of wood and sanding it down. The wood appears to be a light-colored pine with visible grain patterns. The person is using a sanding block to smooth out the surface of the wood. The background is a dark surface, possibly a workbench, with some wood shavings scattered around. The person's hand moves back and forth, applying pressure to the sanding block to remove any rough spots from the wood.
