  Thanks! I loved this one of a guy fixing a 70’s(?) suitcase: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRzy7LJXYVg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRzy7LJXYVg He has a huge workshop full of suitcase parts, so must do many per workday at a guess. Serious skills - I loved the careful masking of the existing stickers when he repainted it. Although he did leave the castors on when spray painting, which seemed odd to me. And this guy is fixing kitchen graters (although for a short moment they show him making new ones too). Perhaps used by chefs, since it looks like he has about 5 of the same type to fix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_XeZZkff0g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_XeZZkff0g Although they show a lady at the end opening the mail for her fixed one. Made from copper, and I guess he is puts a zinc coating on it (over a charcoal fire no less!) I wish I understood Japanese so I could get more of the context.
