Ein Mann aus Huye Luang stellt Räucherstäbchen her: Zerstampfen getrockneter Rindenstücke des Weihrauchbaumes in einem hölzernen Tretmörser; Sieben; wiederholtes Schütten des Staubes über längliche, in Harzlösung getauchte Stäbchen.

Pieces of bark from the incense tree, dried on the roof, are filled into a basket, carried to a wooden tread mortar, and pounded, Then it is fed through a wire sieve onto a woven winnow. Finally, the fine, flourlike dust is poured over long rods, which had been dipped beforehand in a sticky resin solution. This is repeated until the joss sticks have reached the required thickness.
