His appearance shows that he is an innate carpenter, because he has eyes like an inkpot, clarifying what is right and what is wrong, and has saw-like teeth, an adze-like neck, a mallet-shaped head (his forehead and the back of the head protrude like a mallet), fingers like a bamboo brushes, elbows like a carpenter's square, shoulders like the Southern barbarian gimlet, and hammer-shaped feet.
その風貌は、目は墨壷のようで曲直を正し、歯は鋸のよう、首は手斧のよう、さいづち頭（木槌のように額と後頭部のでっぱった頭）で、指は墨刺（竹の筆）、肘は曲尺（直角に曲がったものさし）、肩は南蛮錐の柄のよう、足は金づちと、まさに生まれついての大工である。
