 note = {In the introduction to this section there is a generalized description of a kuuden, considering how its particular shape is related to that of the main temple of the different Buddhist sects (Joudoshuu, Joudoshinshuu (Higashi honganji or Nishi honganji). Cuts and types of wood such as zelkova (keyaki), cypress (hinoki), and pine (matsu) are described and what the artisan considers when making his choice of wood to be used for different parts of the work. A comprehensive description of tools is given partly because the artisan had such enthusiasm for them. Each part of the kuuden [roof (yane), beams (masugata) and pillars (hashira)] is complex in its construction and the skills required to make the components. The measuring, cutting and production techniques and the final assembly are described fully. The artisan’s personality and attitude to the present day situation in the butsudan industry is portrayed. The table of contents at the beginning of this section gives a comprehensive list of the topics included. Many photos and drawings, including some from the artisan himself, are included to explain each stage.},
