Blast From the Past - Inomoto-san at Harrelson's 2004 Dai Making Seminar

Highly detailed photos of Inomoto-san, the famous dai maker (dai is the wooden body of a Japanese plane). These photos were taken by Manny Hernandez at the 2004 Dai Making Seminar hosted by Harrelson Stanley. There are 2 Inomoto brothers and both are famous dai makers. We think this is the younger of the Inomoto brothers.
