If I understand correctly this is Taiwanese dollar, right? Not a bad price.

Yep. New Taiwan Dollars.

So about $80 USD and $75,000 for shipping. :wink:

Sneak peek at my next video

Hey do any of you have a picture of a SP-5 with a cracked plastic tip/cone (that I can use in the video)?
EDIT - nevermind - turns out my red SP-5 has a crack :roll_eyes:

I love this project of yours.

For a long time, whenever I wanted to watch a video about older pencils, it had to be from Seasar or some other Japanese collector, but the language barrier was so frustrating, and the auto-translate captions never worked. But now, thanks to you, that’s finally changed. And just like Kelvin, it’s something I look forward to every week.

Keep these coming!

Thank you! I greatly appreciate the support. I’ve wanted to start this for quite a while and finally found the courage to go for it. I’m enjoying the process and learning a lot as I go. Before this, I had no experience with video editing or similar tasks—I had to teach myself how to use Gimp to create the graphic elements. My next step is to work on efficiency. It’s currently taking me over two hours, on average, to produce one minute of finished video. That includes everything—taking photos and videos, editing, and recording voiceovers. I am, however, gradually improving my speed.

I’m trying to release a new video each week, though my job has been extremely demanding this month, so it may be a week or so before my next one.

Over time, and in a fairly short amount of time, you’ll reduce the production time spend. Your process and flow will organically take shape and they won’t be as much of a time suck. You’ll be back at the family diner table before you know it :slight_smile:
