Safety Conference Season | A Mandatory Annual Event in the Construction Industry
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Have you heard of this? I think I mentioned it quite a while ago—it’s an oil additive. We also use grease here. Since we started using this additive in the engine oil for our percussion instruments and such, they’ve been running great. It’s a large engine, so…
I Tried Using a Full-Body Harness | Review of the Full-Body Harness Experience
Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. It’s really gloomy out today, isn’t it? What I hate most is the humidity. It’s unbearable—especially when I have meetings indoors lol.

The Pace for Efficient Progress | On-Site Progress Management
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It was really hot today, wasn't it?! The moment you step out of the car, you get that "splash" feeling—summer is definitely here! Speaking of summer, it's about time they started serving it, don't you think?! We've started serving cold Chinese noodles!

Shade Is by Far the Best | Heat Countermeasures for Slope Workers
Hi, everyone. It’s Enta here. I took a day trip to Nagano today lol. Well, it’s only a two-hour drive one way, so it’s not too bad, but my butt hurts from sitting in the car too long lol.

Protecting Your Eyes from the Invisible | UV and Dust Control in the Construction Industry
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Today, our crawler-type rotary percussion drill returned after a three-month absence. It’s a real help to be able to use a crawler for reverse-rotation drilling, isn’t it? It’s a hassle with a skid-mounted unit. Reverse-rotation drilling is really tough, isn’t it... But anyway, about the safety goggles…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Since my project in Tokyo is wrapped up for now, I headed straight to Azumino. So, I’m currently in Azumino. Azumino City is such a great place! It’s rich in nature, and I think it’s perfect for raising kids. Even if you’re living alone, there are dorms…
Super Save Rope Improves Visibility of the Main Line | Review of the KF Model
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I finally wrapped up the job site in Kagoshima and made it back to Aichi. The equipment also arrived at the next job site today. And, once again, it’s a project for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. So, I thought I’d try something out this time… lol. Have you heard of the “Super Save Rope”? The law…
Special Enrollment System for Workers' Compensation | Essential Knowledge for Self-Employed Contractors
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Whether you’re a company or an individual, you’re sure to have insurance when you go out to a job site, right? I actually had quite a few misconceptions myself, so this was a real learning experience for me. There are times when the president of a company goes out to a job site, right? The same goes for sole proprietors who go out to job sites…
