they need to concentrate...

yeehaw!

ash's taking a nap 

あ、aちゃん寝ちゃったよ。 

a great view

putting the engine on to the stand

aw, man! the flip-flop boy...

ash is wide-awake now...

あ、aちゃん起きた！

taking back the engine crane to our　neighbors.

ta-da!

持ち主不在のまま、着々とファルコンプロジェクトは進んでおります。 
結局みんなファルコンがいじりたくなっちゃって、
良く言えば気分転換に重きを置いた一日。

harmless amusement...

an idea came to shinya

and he made

this, a tab for the engine crane.

to do this.

it's working!

oops, take off the hood first, guys!

今日も元気に気分転換！

 

are you really sure, n美くん?

guys moving falcon n's falcon...

皆でファルコンを動かし中。 もち、手押し。

 what is nabe doing?
oh, all right, he is an auto pro. i forgot. 
he's going to fix n's falcon while he's here
by mutual agreement, i hope...

滞在中にn美くんのファルコンを直す気満々のw氏。

本当にいいの、n美くん？

こんなおっちょこちょいのすっとこどっこいに触らせちゃって？

huh? i thought nabe was gonna work on falcon.

but i found his shoes...???

よーしこれからやるぞ！って言ってた矢先に脱いだ靴を発見？は？ 

what?! we usually wear shoes when we are working

and change into sandal when we are done, nabe!

え？なんでサンダルに履き替える？
今からやるのに・・・さすがはプロ、余裕です。

oh, i see... 

うん、うん、プロだからね、余裕っす。

new comer

shinya got another welder...

for free...

with some cool stickers on side.

1960's p & h

mr. wanatabi

nabe & shinya

observing nabe's new tool.

nabe was supposed be arriving yesterday from japan. but he just arrived today. why? because he's the dumbest guy ever! he missed the flight although he was at the airport three hours before the boarding time. who could miss the plane when you were already checked in and were at the gate? ok, he met his old friends at the gate by coincidence. they had plenty of time, went in to a pub, got drunk, and didn't even hear the announcement...all three of them missed the flight. three stooges, here they come!

anyway...

nabe & shinya start to play with the tool.

goofy-looking nabe

he sells and builds muscle cars in japan

result of the "brake pipe flaring kit"

hand-rolled sushi...

today...

day 3 has started.

super fast movement!

so much for today.

thank you ash!! see you tomorrow...

sinker...

yesterday.
 

 

ash was back.

 the base

he said he was going to try some new things.

i have no idea what any of that means... 

 he uses saddle and soft leather　freely.

tiger tail break

back to his work

this is a part of the new things he was trying

let's call it a day...

day-and-night work...

ah oh, it has already started!

 

 the saddle leather

 

 foam

it's getting dark outside

 

 grinding down the foam

 

that's enough for today

to be continued tomorrow... 

put your ass on it...

back drop a-chan, the leather master, 

arrived with his machines and tools in his ranchero
to make the seat for shinya.

shinya and a-chan 

taking the machines out

careful guys!

the back drop stamp

when it comes to seat designing, 

shinya draws for a-chan.

instead of trying to explain in words 

 they have a strong relationship 
with 17 years of history...

japanese call it the A and UN breathing 
or rhythmic breathing,
a method of mutual understanding.

17年に及ぶ信頼関係、あ・うんの呼吸ですな。
