I used watch Sam promote that service years ago when he had a couple of thousand subs, but he also used to work on his 33.4 in the driveway and complaining about his neighbours, the good old days
I’m a carpenter living in the USA. I love these old shops videos of these tool stores. Those made in Japan makita tools are worth big money here. And they are better quality tools we buy here. Those old hand planes and chisels we can’t get those around here. Those would save us so much time! Keep posting these videos been a long time follower even before you moved to Japan.
Im a Heavy equipment mechanic in America, AMERICANS LOVE THESE VIDEOS, THE CRAFTSMANSHIP AND TOOLS ARE SO UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT, FLEA MARKETS AND STORE LIKE THIS ARE SO COOL.
The tool shown at 9:36 is an antique "Chalk box" but it looks like it used more like pencil dust. you put the line end at one point, drag the line though the "chalk" and sting it out to a second point. pull it taught and let it snap back and it leaves a nice straight line.
2:44 Yellow tub is filled with just big bits, 1st one is a Tap, 2nd is a drill bit/debut, 3rd is an end mill say you want to shape a cut out of your cage to lay a bar to give it more support and weldable contact area. 4th is an Annular cutter, so you have less pressure on the theworkpiecee and cuts faster as it only cuts the outer ring, The blue tub is full of dies, as I can see. The Green tub is similar to the first. Winches are great for lifting engines also, lift/drop and roll the chassis
13:50 JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) Amazon Japan has the Lobster tools listings as Lobtex tools. I am assuming it to be easier to find and not get loaded with seafood listings. Love these type of tool videos, keep them coming 🤙
Thanks for sharing, this type of video is very interesting to me. Regarding the sockets, those flat black sockets are used for impact drivers and air ratchets. The ones that are chrome are for handheld ratchets. I do like using the old hand tools as often times the steel was better. Some tools in my box were my fathers.
@ 3:15 Daiki grabs a die. Now he just needs a key. Sorry, dad jokes. You definitely need to do more like these, it's cool to see other things we don't get to see elsewhere.
I'm not a car person, too much traffic and insurance prices are wild in the UK for anything remotely interesting. I do like bikes and touring and working on them is part of that. Next Japan trip I'll hit the tool stores again and pick up a few bits, some of those milling vices look like great pickups.
100% you should take some time to look some of those tools up and not just for yourself. That thing you asked about at 4:57 turns out to be an electromagnetic chuck. I assume it would shorten the time for the machine operator when changing bits. I thought that was kinda cool because Ive never heard of it, maybe other people might find it interesting as well. I love your videos because I'm learning so much lol
As I have pointed out in the past (not shaiming any one for not being in the knowing), that is a rimer, it's to make precise holes (down to ,01mm), it also makes for a finer hole (wall). It's good with a (table) lathe, for making "bult" pivot/joints "holes" and then lathing the bult for the desired clearense.
Your commented walkthroughs are interesting to watch, for the most of us it’s the other side of the world and we’re curious about it what it’s like there ❤ by the way the Makitas ( like Angle Grinder)you shown in the 80 bucks used price range, is the local price in Germany for new Makita without battery and charger mostly. Depending on specific model naturally
Wow, that store is actually really outstanding. (As for chisels and block planes, probably just ask someone older how to do it if you want to do a little woodworking. :) )
Info... if you have the Super Damper on an RB Crank you want be able to fit the Impact Socket onto the Crank bolt you need to trim it down or use an non impact Socket... been there done that just letting you know 👍🏻
Could you add the location or link to this shops website? I really like the second-hand carpentry tools, I am looking forward to more of those and the pricing.
Yeah - this is cool - the Wood planes got me fired up. Japan has some of the best wood working tools in the world. Thanks for showing these shops. I bet some of the tool shops out in the sticks have some really old, classic tools. Love this s**t. Electrical Engineer by day trade, wood worker at night - and those wood wooking tools give me the wood ;)
Those Snap-On boxes would bring $900-$1000 USD here in the states on marketplace depending on condition. Japan has combination of tarrifs and protection laws to keep certain domestic mfgring competitive, tools being one. From my experience in the 90s when I was stationed in Oki, Japanese people in trade based industries are quite (rightfully) proud of their country as well and support by proudly buying and owning tools built there. People like that are a dying breed here in USA.... usually its your older techs.... lots of younger trades people just can't get enough Hobo Freight.....
The most important quality of most tools is that someone can afford them unfortunately. Even I buy harbor freight then if I use it enough to break I'll buy a real version, most people don't need to
that "fishing line" (9:35min) looks like may be a chalk line tool?? .....add chalk into the "ash tray" looking part and pull the line to coat it in chalk...
i always wondered what a brand new snap on box cost compared to here in the states my 84 epic series was alot and i can only imagine the added on price for shipping to japan
sam
Everyone like this it needs to be top comment
Let's make this happen!!
He's busy building race cars and blowing them up for us. Just rent a fast car yourself and take your brother out yourself.
Make this happen!!

How about checking out the Japanese Flea Market? That would be an interesting video, take the whole family with you
I love how Daiki immediately scoped the Tamiya box, someone's a model builder!
Like figurines right??? lmao

Love these vids, like most blokes I could spend hours browsing in used tool shops regardless of whether I need anything or not.
Me too.
Awesome video as always Sammit. Yes most definitely you need to film more shops like this one it is so interesting.
The tool shown at 9:36 is an antique "Chalk box" but it looks like it used more like pencil dust. you put the line end at one point, drag the line though the "chalk" and sting it out to a second point. pull it taught and let it snap back and it leaves a nice straight line.
That is a sumitsubo. It uses ink chips one wets and a silk string to mark timber posts.
The song in the background is going off. I love it
18:29 theres literally somebody somewhere laid on a bed of 10mm's doing the starfish 😂
2:44 Yellow tub is filled with just big bits, 1st one is a Tap, 2nd is a drill bit/debut, 3rd is an end mill say you want to shape a cut out of your cage to lay a bar to give it more support and weldable contact area. 4th is an Annular cutter, so you have less pressure on the theworkpiecee and cuts faster as it only cuts the outer ring,
The blue tub is full of dies, as I can see.
The Green tub is similar to the first.
Winches are great for lifting engines also, lift/drop and roll the chassis
9:24 An old carpenter's tool called "墨壺:Sumitsubo" (chalk line).
That was an old chalk line.. the wood carving with the dragon mouth with string
13:50 JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard)
Amazon Japan has the Lobster tools listings as Lobtex tools.
I am assuming it to be easier to find and not get loaded with seafood listings.
Love these type of tool videos, keep them coming 🤙
My dad was a mechanic and has, in more than one instance, bought $10k rolling tool boxes. The Snap-On tax is real. 😀
thanks for the tour Sam, please find more fun places like this to visit
Thanks for sharing, this type of video is very interesting to me.

At 10:20 I believe it was used to drink Absinthe...but I'm not sure...and yes it was a kind of 420 then!
youtube is keeping you in my for you thank you youtube for realizing i love sammits videos
Absolutely love these exploring Japan videos please do more!!!!!
@ 3:15 Daiki grabs a die. Now he just needs a key. Sorry, dad jokes. You definitely need to do more like these, it's cool to see other things we don't get to see elsewhere.
09:34 it’s for marking lines on wood for the cut.
Tamiya box is for mini4WD cars man. The rabbit hole is deep if you look at mini4WD development on youtube in 2024.
Love your vids. I agree, more of these videos would be awesome.
i wish we had shops like that in South Africa 🙃
I'm not a car person, too much traffic and insurance prices are wild in the UK for anything remotely interesting. I do like bikes and touring and working on them is part of that.

Tamiya RC car spares box 😎.. had tamiya since early 80s
These shops are amazing to see! Love to see more videos about this!
As a hobby woodworker all of those hand planes and chisels are a dream
Legend has it. Sam is still looking for a 10mm in that box

Used tool stores, new tool stores, I'll watch 'em. Interesting to see what can be had in Japan.
9:39 a line marker that uses ink instead of chalk....for marking lines (snap line) on flat goods
The 10mm is the finding Waldo of sockets lol
Yes here and there is a relaxing palate cleanser. I enjoy them
I don't know why used tool shops aren't a thing over here in North America.
They are... there are lots of used tool shops if you know where to look. There are also pawn shops full of used everything...
Someone tried one in my town....lasted 9 months, not sure why, it always had inventory and had some great deals.
OMG I want that tamyia box!!!
they're available everywhere here pretty much for 1500 yen ($10). Tamiya 15354
Dude, is having fun playing treasure hunt for 10mm socket plugs. ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Tamiya mini 4wd track cars not models. These boxes are perfect for trackside maintenance
In the tool nerd communities it’s fairly well known the jdm makita is made in Japan where the globally sold products are Chinese of origin.
Your commented walkthroughs are interesting to watch, for the most of us it’s the other side of the world and we’re curious about it what it’s like there ❤ by the way the Makitas ( like Angle Grinder)you shown in the 80 bucks used price range, is the local price in Germany for new Makita without battery and charger mostly.

Sammit, we need more family vlogs!
These thrifting-tool vids are always fun to watch from the States!
6:50 From left to right: Kamen Order Kaixa, Kamen Rider Horobi, Is, Kamen Rider Zero One, Kamen Rider Blade
Wow, that store is actually really outstanding. (As for chisels and block planes, probably just ask someone older how to do it if you want to do a little woodworking. :) )
Location info would have been awesome. Not just trying to find it in all of Yokoyama.
Info... if you have the Super Damper on an RB Crank you want be able to fit the Impact Socket onto the Crank bolt you need to trim it down or use an non impact Socket... been there done that just letting you know 👍🏻
The box of "10mm" got me, felt like home.
Thank you for sharing the other side of the world with us
Sugoi. Thanks Sam and Daiki. 🙏✌️🇦🇺
Very kool seeing all the different tools that are used there.
Great job keep up the used tool content
definately love the old shops
hey hey. new vid. so cool seeing these stores. many thanks
The tool you thought for fishing is a 墨つぼ Sumitsubo which is a inkt pot , inkt line for carpentry.
"Drop saw?" Drop saw Chop saw we still know what we're talking about.
maybe should also cover a video used hifi separates....speakers, amplifiers, turntables etc
10:10 Maybe it's a Alembic to make distilled drinks or a weird science thing
100% LOVE these videos 👍
I wish I could be there, thanks for bringing us along!
Needa video someday on how’s the auctions going down there in Japan sammit much love from Dallas tx 🤞🏼🤞🏼🩷

Japan has the most unique things.😃

Could you add the location or link to this shops website? I really like the second-hand carpentry tools, I am looking forward to more of those and the pricing.
I wish I had something like that near me besides pawn shops. 19:32
That old Sega is a "i needs it" item :)

9:29 ink fountain for draw straight line ..
I work for a tool supply company in the uk and most makita tools I see here are uk made.
Was pissing myself laughing when you were searching for a ten ml socket 🤣🤣🤣
That music is great!
I find the tool stores interesting and also that store is playing some banger songs
Somewhere theres a guy that has a pool full of 10mm like Scrooge McDuck's coins
I hate that i like this video lol. Why is it this cool for no reason
Makita die grinder is the best tool you will ever own, that and the makita mini belt sander.

It would be cool to have one of these shops in the UK
Those BIG sockets are for tractor trailers and heavy equipment
that "fishing line" (9:35min) looks like may be a chalk line tool?? .....add chalk into the "ash tray" looking part and pull the line to coat it in chalk...
I wish we had shops like that here in the states.
Tamyia = RC everything!
i always wondered what a brand new snap on box cost compared to here in the states
my 84 epic series was alot and i can only imagine the added on price for shipping to japan
3:35 yep that's a reamer.
