Hey fellow BC'ers! I want to become the biggest Toyozouki Otaku in the world. Unfortunately I don't heve enough money, but just asked what machines they made, and they gave me a list. I will post pictures of all my Toyozouki things I have owned later, I just pucked up a pair of Toyozouki male Tennis clamps, but here is the list! Sent from my SC-01L using Tapatalk
My first ES5 Pro, ES5 Protech, 2 String System 8 (Protech 8), picked up 2 ES5 Pros in Japan, did 1 an Iron Man theme, Protech 8 I painted Yellow, Gosen GM-1300, and I ordered a Protech base when they were just Toyozouki and they sent me a prototype wood painted base, and my final machine Precision 8.0 with serial numbers ending in 5 and 29, May 29th is my birthday =) Sent from my SC-01L using Tapatalk
My Toyozouki male badminton clamp, versions 1 and 2 of the Toyozouki starting clamps, totally forgot about my Protech Trolly signed by the people who work in Toyozouki, and this is not mine but I asked Lin Dan to sign the machine in 2012 and he signed it upside down, leaned over the machine and signed it =) Sent from my SC-01L using Tapatalk
Precision 8.0, useless tennis clamp, badminton clamp. The tennis clamp cane with a silver arm without a roller. It looks like it was maybe supposed to have a flat end where the clamp can close, but maybe worn down so it doesn't lock, the other clamps have a click feel when it locks, the silver arm won't click.

Turn table and table break of an ES5ProTech: I love this massive ball bearing. Also the fact that the table break (to increase the resistance of the table for easier weaving) was easily solved with a bicycle brake.
Gripper of the ES5ProTech: I bought the machine second-hand. It was, and still is, very run-down in some parts. The gripper only moved back with force. Never seen it so extreme. So I disassembled the gripper, cleaned up everything and applied new grease and oil. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the clean state afterwards.
