Toru Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Hello all, I'm very grateful for such a wonderful opportunity! The last time I joined Tt event was almost 4 years ago. It is an honor to be able to participate in this event.🙂 Cherry blossom season is finally here! It looks like the cherry blossom bloomed earlier than usual. and I'm so excited about the RAM MOD! I'll let you know the details in the next updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toru Posted April 29, 2023 Report Share Posted April 29, 2023 Okay, Update time! I have decided on the theme for RAM MOD. The theme of this mod is KIMONO. A kimono is a traditional Japanese garment that is often worn for rites and festivals also other important occasions. Kimonos have become obsolete as everyday clothes, but they're still very important for formal occasions. and I want to tell the world about Kimono culture. Make not only kimono ram, but also I plan to make a room (washitsu) where kimonos are displayed. It may be close to the atmosphere of ZEN.

Toru Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 I make a wooden hanger rack. It is called the Ikou. Ikou is a Japanese traditional rack for hanging kimono. There are folding type and single-panel type. It's made from wood or bamboo. It looks like the Torii. A torii is a traditional Japanese gate most commonly found at the entrance of or within a Shinto shrine. I have seen this design in real life before and I was so impressed when I saw it for the first time. That's why I wanted to make this!

Toru Posted May 2, 2023 Report Share Posted May 2, 2023 Let me use a 3D graphic to explain that. I make the Ikou 3 separate times. and I'll make this. Used for fixing the ram. Now, let's move on to 3D print! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toru Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 I prepared some Kimono for ram. and An Obi. Obi is a belt that is wrapped around the body of a kimono and tied to hold the kimono together when wearing it. These obis look just right! The obi was a perfect fit.

Toru Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 I use foam core and wooden boards for a room (washitsu) where kimonos are displayed. and painting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toru Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 I am going to make a Japanese traditional Tatami mat while I build a room. I visited Tatami shop. There I gained knowledge that I hadn't been able to obtain until now. and I procured many parts for Tatami there. So...They are all nice, so it's hard to pick just one, isn't it? haha🤣 With a lot of thinking, my conclusion is this. These boards are materials taken from real Tatami actually used. These boards are exclusively for Tatamis. The material is at once resilient. real tatami mat. and cloth used for the rim of tatami All right, let's move on to Tatami build!

Toru Posted May 19, 2023 Report Share Posted May 19, 2023 I am sorry to have kept you waiting. I finally did it! Tsuru(Cranes) very often appear on wedding kimono. This is "Seigaiha". The direct meaning of “Seigaiha” is Blue sea and waves. This is a pattern that the waves are lapped over alternately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
