In the video, a person is seen using a tool to shave off pieces of wood. The tool appears to be a small, handheld device with a wooden handle and a metal blade. The person is holding the tool with their right hand and using their left hand to shave off thin layers of wood from a piece of wood that is resting on a larger piece of wood. The wood being shaved off is light brown in color, and the larger piece of wood has a darker brown color. The person's movements are precise and controlled as they shave off the wood in thin layers.
