                  It's a great bag. I bought mine back in August and it's very handy when you don't want to lug a backpack around. Probably not much difference weight/size wise when compared to other bags but it's very useful. I'm surprised IH doesn't carry Master-Piece stuff for the Sonders Supply store

                    That’s an interesting screen printing set up. Here in the US printers use a circular press to print shirts. I’ve never seen one like this before. Seems like it would take longer

                      Last night we went for Okonomiyaki, Modanyaki,  Negiyaki and something with a load of sticky yam on the top which was not particularly appetising to the western palette (no pics). All three of us were rocking our c/o Shazams too.

                      Today Haraki led the way to Kuroki mills on his Harley and we showed Limbro around the mill. More pics on that to follow from @Chesson 

                      Now to Tokyo…..

                                    Love the garage and that it’s set up as a casual place to just hang out.
