Good day
I just came back from Japan and I would like to share with you a few pictures.
Before you ask, no, I did not buy any Japanese hand tools because my hand skills are…not so good
I was taken to a restaurant near Narita airport and to my surprise the owner was woodworker.
The restaurant is combined with the shop and he is making and selling tabletops made of one piece of wood and other things.

The TS. If you don't see the guard and riving knife it's because there are non...actually he moved the blade from the normal center location to the edge (you can see a cover between the miter slots), he made a slider on the other side but because of the mess you cannot see it (a chipboard and stick are sitting on the slider).
