Japanese shop tour

[Ripper]

The page is in English but the tour is all pictures; some neat tools and it looks like he uses water a lot in his grinding (interesting technique using the large water cooled wheel).
He also has another nice page showing forge welding being done.

Good call Greg, I posted that link here a while back too, thinking Roger would pick up on the water drip. I get a kick out of those guys, I always tend to think of Japanese work as seriously high tech...but not this family! They do it like they always did and it works just fine. Thanks for the reminder,

Oops, sorry Dave I missed it too and I always like the stuff you post.

Greg
