"Right timing, right place, right materials, right craft; when these four align, excellence may follow." Wood, one of the Five Materials: bendable, exposable. Straight, it meets the marking line; curved, it fits the compass. Light yet resilient. The woodworker crafts the Wicker Ray with curves and straightness shifting, which resembles a flying ray treading waves.
Wicker Ray often appears where water currents change, using conflicting flows to generate momentum. Borrowing this momentum, its body moves like lightning. Craftsmen use it to observe hydrological changes.
