<\/p>\nHawaiian koa wood is purchased every year.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With Hurricane Olivia also making landfall,
\nLuckily, we also buy wide width lumber.
\nWatch cases in sizes for 10 watches can be produced.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Traveling to Hawaii several times a year.
\nIt has been about 35 years.
\nWe have known each other for a very long time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Such is Hawaii.<\/p>\n
Compared to a decade ago
\nWith Hawaiian Airlines' inaugural flight to Haneda
\nIt was much easier.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After all, at Narita and Haneda
\nThe distance is different.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What a surprise,<\/p>\n
I feel comfortable.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On the day of departure, I did normal work in Ikebukuro.
\nThen, after eating, etc.
\nHeading to Haneda.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
From Sunshine to Haneda
\nIt takes about 30 minutes by limousine bus.<\/p>\n
The highway is more convenient and feels closer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mobile check-in before arriving at Haneda.
\nI've already finished,
\nUpon arrival at Haneda, go to the carrier's counter.
\nNo waiting in line, check in your luggage in 2 to 3 minutes
\nThe boarding pass printing is complete.
\nConvenient.\u3000Smooth.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This time, Hawaiian Airlines.
\nWe chose a flight around midnight.
\nWe arrive just after local noon.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Almost no need to kill time,
\nAnd check in to your accommodations.
\nIt is thought to be quite smooth.
\nCompared to the past, it has really become easier.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However,<\/p>\n
Hawaiian Airlines.
\nLike \"food samples.\"
\nFor the mysterious \"loco moco\".
\nI'm still getting used to it: ....<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Previously, upon arrival in Honolulu
\nQueues formed at immigration,
\nIt can take up to an hour.
\nThere was, but now it is easier!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When entering the country again under ESTA,
\nSelf check-in at a kiosk terminal.<\/p>\n
It takes 10 minutes to enter the country!<\/p>\n
There is no time to go to the bathroom.
\nCompared to the past, the speed is like a dream.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After entering Honolulu Airport
\nLog in to the mobile router and
\nRent a car at the Alamo and go.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I have a reservation from Japan, so I'll be there in 5 minutes.
\nPickup is complete.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Alamo has cars with less mileage than the Dollar.
\nIt is my favorite because there are so many.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The staff of the car rental company<\/p>\n
The American attitude is the same everywhere. ....<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I've been back and forth to Hawaii quite a few times.
\nAlmost all hotels in the vicinity of Waikiki are
\nI was gradually getting tired of staying there all the time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As much as possible for the last 10 years or so.
\nArrange for a hotel away from Waikiki.
\nTo tourists from Japan as much as possible.
\nTry not to match, even a little.
\nI've been trying to create the \"feeling of traveling abroad.\"
\nThat, too, has become more difficult recently.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So this time, we changed it up.
\nI tried to arrange accommodations through Airbnb.<\/p>\n
The room looked like it hadn't even been evaluated yet.
\nThere was a gambling aspect to it.
\nSmooth check-in.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Since it is September in a sea side room,
\nThe wind is not strong and calm at night.<\/p>\n
It's a condominium.
\nIt is easy to live as if you were living in the house.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Still, it is a room with a great location.
\n(It is next to the Hawaiian Prince where Mr. Yakumaru often eats on weekends.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Moreover, it is inexpensive!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With the advent of Airbnb
\nHawaii is going to be fun again.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We are planning to buy lumber as soon as possible on the day after arrival.
\nThe weather is quite bad.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That's as it should be.
\nHurricane.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Florence for Mainland.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Olivia for Hawaii.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Slightly off Oahu
\nIt seems to have landed on Maui.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What is in Lanai is
\nWe are now being instructed to remove everything.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When I turn on the TV, I see information on the path of hurricanes and
\nDamage information is all over the place.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In such difficult weather conditions, we are forced to make purchases.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Naturally, wood is
\nLength, width, thickness.\"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is a balance of these three points.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If this is not in place.
\nNo matter how good the wood appears
\nIt makes no sense at all.<\/p>\n
That is the most difficult and \"lucky\" part.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I want a grain like this.\"<\/p>\n
I want a size like this.\"<\/p>\n
\"I wish there was more of this here.\"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I have many hopes,
\nIf you say that, they will not take you seriously.
\nWood is a natural material, not an industrial product.
\nIt cannot be remade.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You have to be willing to accept and tolerate the status quo.
\nThe \"encounter\" with good wood is not forever.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Especially in Hawaiian koa
\nIn particular, the \"width\" size is a curmudgeonly one.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Actually,<\/p>\n
The size of the wood used to make the guitar is
\nof 10 watch cases to be produced by Soulbird.
\nIt butts up against \"width size.\"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Also, the size of the wood used in ukulele production is
\nTo be produced by Soulbird
\nFor 5 or 3 watch cases
\nIt butts up against \"width size.\"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This always means that each guitar manufacturer and
\nCompetition from ukulele makers.
\nIt occurs as a matter of course.<\/p>\n
It's a tough ordeal.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Guitar makers and ukulele makers have
\nWe have overwhelming financial resources and credit.<\/p>\n
In the ukulele, for example
\nIt's also \"Hawaiian culture.\"
\nBuying in the midst of all this is actually quite difficult.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the midst of all this, we were \"lucky\" this time.
\nThe \"wide timber\" is now available.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yes,<\/p>\n
Battling with guitar makers
\nWood size for 10 watch case\".
\nIt is a fairly difficult width size.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I thought this was pretty \"strong luck\".<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The weather was unlucky because of Olivia.
\nOn the other hand,
\nI had an encounter with a \"lucky wide timber.\"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It was discovered during a core material purchase.<\/p>\n
It is a Japanese \"tochi\" (Japanese horse chestnut).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hawaiian koa is less and less.
\nWhat a surprise amidst the skyrocketing prices,
\nJapanese \"tochi\" was sold!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is also quite large.<\/p>\n
It is about the size of one tatami mat.<\/p>\n
![\"\u30c8\u30c1\u6750\"](\"https:\/\/soulbird.co.jp\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/tochi_2.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Overseas, they had not yet been spotted.
\nDistribution of \"TOCHI\" worldwide.<\/p>\n
that is to say
\nIt means that the price of \"tochi\" in Japan will rise.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Until about six months ago, I was at Seoul Bird.
\nWe have often introduced the \"horse chestnut watch case.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Therefore,<\/p>\n
Some of our customers who have been visiting our site for many years
\nThe ever-present lumber.
\nSome of you may have thought that this was a good idea.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But when it comes to the case size for 10 watches,
\nIt was finally depleted six months ago.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If there are any customers who have been considering
\nWe apologize for the inconvenience.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the future, the watch case size for 10 watches will be
\nWe will actively purchase materials that can be
\nI am sure that the price will be higher than before. \u3001\u3001\u3001\u3001<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I will introduce it to you when it becomes available again.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The purchase was successfully completed, but
\nThe local Hawaiian koa situation is
\nI am very concerned.<\/p>\n
So we are trying to check a few things.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Check out the stores in the Waikiki area that sell Hawaiian koa products.\"<\/p>\n
\u3084<\/p>\n
Stock material that the workshop has.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The easiest to understand is \"Martin & MacArthur\".<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We have opened quite a few stores in major locations.<\/p>\n
All of these places are easily visible to the public.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ala Moana Center, Hilton Hawaiian Village, and Sheraton Waikiki,
\nWard Center, Outrigger Reef, Moana Surfrider, etc.
\nIf you have been to Hawaii, you have probably seen them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Again, I've inspected each store,
\nIt was supposed to be a \"core specialty store.
\nIt seems to be changing direction in a big way.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Produced by an outside artist
\nI do have a \"solid core case (boxed)\" piece though,<\/p>\n
Produced by our own staff
\nThere are no solid case (boxed) pieces.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Instead, the number of \"core products\" in the store has been greatly reduced.
\nA number of \"bags\" and \"jewelry\" are on display.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is like a souvenir shop.
\nThis could be for several reasons.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Even though we have our own staff who can make furniture.
\nIt could be that there is no staff that can do case production (box production).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I hope this is not too difficult to understand,
\nIn fact, furniture making and case making are two different industries.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The author, who is a furniture maker
\nIt is not always possible to make a good case.<\/p>\n
And vice versa.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I'm looking at the \"Martin & MacArthur\" product line.
\nIt is true that the quality of boxed goods has been declining over the past few years.
\nI knew that,
\nPerhaps this is the cause.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Martin & MacArthur has a new president,
\nWe no longer have staff who can do case production (box-making),\" he said.
\nI had heard about this from one of the lumber dealers,
\nThe store's assortment of products seemed to bear this out.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Wood<\/p>\n
Not only is there no staff.
\nIt is also possible that the stock of \"core material\" is running low.
\nThe workshop that produces these works is
\nIt is located in an area called \"Kalihi.\"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I've been going around the workshop.
\nWe do not see \"plentiful\" stock.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I would be OK if we just lost the production staff.
\nIf \"we've run out of lumber stock...\"
\nIt is quite worrisome.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Because it is \"Martin & MacArthur\".<\/p>\n
If you go to Hawaii, please visit
\nIt might be interesting to check out the store.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Hawaiian koa for this purchase.
\nAlthough drying has already been completed at the site
\nAfter arriving at Seoul Bird,
\nSeasoning is performed for 2 to 3 years.<\/p>\n
We will then introduce them to you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At Soulbird, we make purchases every year, and we're always looking for new products.
\nAfter buying a few years ago,
\nSeasoning has been completed.
\nHawaiian koa wood stock is available.<\/p>\n
We hope that customers who are considering this project will contact us.
\nYou can see the actual core material in Ikebukuro and
\nThe \"grain\" can be specified.<\/p>\n
