When I get angry, I write it down! And then I erase it!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I rarely get angry, but for the first time in a while, I got seriously upset!

What should you do when the blueprint says “reverse-wrap installation,” but it seems like you don’t actually need to do it?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Initially, the blueprints specify “counter-rotation construction” in the margin.

Measuring positioning errors during drilling is pointless, but it's a mandatory step!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are you measuring positional deviations? The other day, during a final inspection, the inspector pointed out an issue with positional deviations to me. We set up a reference frame (300 mm) and measure using its center (150 mm) as the zero point (X and Y). We set the bolt scale to zero…

We’re now in an era where you can choose your work style even within the same industry!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I wonder if one day we’ll look back and say, “Back in the day, we used to do construction like this!” lol. We used to call that “laminating and applying,” right? It’s ancient history now, but there are still a few people who do things like this, lol. &nbs…
Introducing the steel-cutting bits used in the catch basin construction project
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Have you heard of steel-cutting bits? Well, I’ve mentioned them a few times on this blog, so I’m sure you’re familiar with them, but this time I’m talking about using a steel-cutting bit in a catch basin. What do you think? It cuts cleanly, doesn’t it? One…

People who are making plans are actually feeling anxious.
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are you getting organized for work? When it comes to work, we all need to get organized (prepare), and we usually take care of our own preparations, right?

Talking About the Costs of Inverse-Winding Construction
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are you all busy? Things are kind of slow here, lol. It seems busy, but it’s not really that hectic—it just feels like we’re keeping things moving for now. Well, in the meantime, we’re steadily moving forward with our private-sector construction projects. As for this “leveling out” that the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has been talking about for a while now…
