Making incense sticks in Vietnam


A video from an incense stick factory in Vietnam. The lady has this bunch of sticks in her hand. She drops a few sticks on the board. She then uses the roller to roll the sticks over the incense powder. The pressure binds the powder to the stick. Finished sticks are collected in the box sitting on her lap.

Nice post on incense sticks, but earlier I had no idea that how incense sticks could be made by hand. It’s so easy.
