The reason why requests from world brands come in... Kokura Orimono's strength lies in jacquard silk fabrics. An industrial jacquard loom has 14,200 warp (vertical) threads, with weft (horizontal) threads moving back and forth between them. There is slight unevenness in thickness. The craftsman adjusts them while threading, and operates the loom while keeping an eye on it to ensure that it runs smoothly. Today, there are almost no highly specialized craftsmen even within the production area, which is one of the reasons why Kokura Textile receives requests from world-famous brands. Why not visit Kokura Orimono to meet these rare and highly skilled craftsmen? *For foreign nationals: Information on the day will be in Japanese only.

「本当に、この道であっているのかな?」そう、今回は集合場所に到着時する前からドキドキが始まっていました。看板はあるものの、奥まった所へと車を進める事になるので到着するまで不安が募りました(集合場所を見つけた時はほっとしました)。 体験はまず、案内をしてくださるガイドの船津さんと、当主の荒谷さんの紹介から始まり、安全のための注意事項の説明、それからヘルメットの装着をしました。 準備が整うと、重ねられた石の間を通り、工具等がある小屋の間を通って採石場の入り口へ。入り口を見たときは思わず吐いた息と共に「うわぁー」と声が漏れました。 大きく開いた入り口、壁は白っぽくて幾何学的な模様が刻まれていました。私には不思議でとても美しく魅力的に見えました。 採石場の中へ入り、独特な雰囲気を感じ、まるで異世界に来たような感覚がしました(どう感じたかは上手く言葉で表現できませんので割愛で)。 実際に石を切り出す所を見せていただき、石を切る時の音の変化を感じる事もできました。 また、石の状態を探りながら採石していく技術は長年受け継がれ、歴史と凄みを感じました。 お話していただいたことや実際に体験したことは全て興味深いもので、私は参加して良かったです。 今回、参加した時期が良く、外気と採石場の気温の差を感じる事が出来なかったので、また別の季節に参加したいと思いますいます。

When you hear that we are a ``mold shop'' that seriously makes things with professional 3D printers in the 10 million class, how many of you are immediately drawn to it? Daimol is one of the few companies in the Hokuriku region that makes molds for making metal parts. Efficiently producing a large number of parts and creating prototypes for that purpose are two different things, even in the same metal processing industry. Molds are made by processing metal, but the essence of being a moldmaker lies in the design that takes place before processing begins. Since we make molds to make something that originally has no shape, we need to know what method to use to create the mold in order to achieve the desired shape, what kind of drawings are needed for that purpose, and the modeling process used to create the mold. It's work. In this program, participants will attend a graduate school to obtain an MBA, and will learn ideas for innovation and thinking methods for creating products through a workshop led by Daimol representative Kenta Osugi, who will help them realize what they want to create and design it. With support, you can model and finally create a shape using a 3D printer. We are looking forward to hearing from anyone who wants to take on the challenge of making something seriously using a professional 3D printer that the general public does not usually see! ! <Time schedule> 13:50 Reception 14:00 Check-in 14:10 Factory tour 14:40 Workshop 15:45 Presentation/discussion

About Daito Aiki Jiu-Jitsu Daito Aiki Jiu-Jitsu. This martial art is a palace-style self-defense technique that was originally conveyed only to the senior samurai of the Aizu clan. Until the Meiji era, martial arts was a secret to the public, but it became known to the public by Takeda Sokaku, a native of Aizu. Moving zazen "I can't be slashed. I can't be beaten. I can't be kicked. I can't be kicked." Mr. Komichi Horikawa, a high school brother of Takeda Sokaku, positions martial arts in this way. The goal is not to defeat the opponent, as in the case of match-style martial arts and martial arts, but to enhance one's spirituality. This is the ideal, peaceful philosophy of martial arts. Specializing in zazen teaching, I realized that the ignorance of this martial art was very close to the point of Zen enlightenment. The technique of Daito-ryu Aiki Jiu-Jitsu can be rephrased as "moving zazen". Active martial arts for a lifetime The appeal of this martial art is that it can be learned by anyone, regardless of Ageo/Okegawa or Sex. At present, there are children from kindergarten below and those who have passed Koki above. Mid-Year hard and body in, yet is powerless even I, was able to so much without difficulty learning. One of the few martial arts that can last a lifetime. Please try it by all means
