Subject: [Baren 5295] seals, etc 

Gayle - where did you get the "blank seals" from?  also, I think it was Maria 
that suggested carving erasers - these can work great as rubber stamps - I 
have used the white Staedler erasers - they come in a couple of different 
sizes but of course you can cut them up smaller if you want to - these carve 
easily & don't crumble apart like some other erasers.
best to all,

Sarah

Subject: [Baren 5297] Gosho-san's web site updated. 

I just came back from a visit to baren maker Gosho-san (for a TV
interview), and found out that he has done a lot of updates to his web
site.  It's still all in Japanese, but anyway there are a bunch of
_pictures_ that you can see ...

This page has a bunch of small pictures of the baren-making process:
http://www.ne.jp/asahi/gosho/baren/newpage07.html

This page is a display of his prints:
http://www.ne.jp/asahi/gosho/baren/newpage04.html

And this page is a display of his students' work:
http://www.ne.jp/asahi/gosho/baren/newpage09.html

The pages might take a bit of time to download, because he's put
a zillion little images on each one, but be a bit patient ...
