This video confirmed what i knew all along since the first time i saw this thing. The weird one-sided, brush-coated PCB, the trick with the wire zip tie... This thing comes straight out of a factory that normally produces japanese HiFi amplifiers. I'm not kidding, japanese amplifier manfucaturers have their own standards, tooling and personal for electronics manufacturing which were perfected in the early 90s or so and haven't changed since then. Just open some up, new or old, and you will find out what i mean. Even the idea, to create a 500$ toaster which seals and uniformly heats a friggin toast is so snobbish and absurd that it only can come out of the head of an audiophile. The fact that it actually works great can be attributed to the fact that it's a japanese audiophile tho.
Yup that circuit board looks exactly like my old mid 90's Mitsubishi CRT TV and VCR circuit boards. The TV had the schematics on it too, it allowed me to repair it once.
Can confirm, had to fix some Hitachi AC units and they had the exact same PCB designs. Seeing this comment now makes me respect Japanese engineering even more, their QA seems top notch.
Japanese Engineer: How many screws does it need to hold? Someone: We desinged it for 10, but it would probably work with 7 aswell. Japanese Engineer: Puts 15 screws in
German Engineer: Puts 13 screws in that cost $15 each, three different lengths and 4 different hex head sizes and 2 Torx, pre-tipped with special green thread sealant, 4 different torque specs, torqued clockwise partially three times radiating outwards. 2 billable labor hours per screw.
@@VanisherXP the iPhone actually has the opposite problem. They have way too many screws that use different obscure heads. Makes repair tedious. The components are also paired together meaning if one part is broken like the screen for example, you also need to replace the fingerprint scanner.
Were you asleep in an underground bunker when that burger press craze happened? I mean I agree with you, but the rest of the world thinks we're nuts, apparently.
Zippy tie cutty boy submitted a formal apology then left to retrieve the sword from his car. He was respectfully cremated in a custom made extra large Mitsubishi toaster.
Unsubstantiated rumor! I have it on good authority that he did not commit seppuku. He was last seen on a subway platform, wearing "Ribbons of Shame", and loudly professing his unforgivable sin of having poor skills at zip-tie clippage.

Hello from Japan! Not sure about the rest, but the blinking light’s text says, “blinking light means hot, careful” and the numbers for the bread thickness is kind of a standard here of how many slices per loaf, smaller number thicker slices... cheers, always nice to see your videos

The thickness scale is how many slices there are in a loaf. Japanese loaves are about 1/2 to 2/3 the size of a regular loaf of white bread in the west. A 4 slice loaf will be cut into 4 slices, an 8, the same size loaf with 8 slices. 8 is the size of 'toast' bread in most countries. 6 is about as big as you can fit in a normal toaster. 4 looks like a slice of bread in a 1950s cartoon. Bread thickness in Japan (and most of east Asia) is a standard like wire gauge.
@@sumduma55 No need to marry a toaster (or a woman) to get a slice of toasted bread in the first place, though, so I'm not concerned if it is allowed or not. ;)

Only when you actually gouge the teflon. Don't get me wrong, I'm not recommending the use of OLFA's for your spatula, but in a pinch, in a shop, with gentle precision. Good to go.
And by 21:00 our guy is nearly in tears, cant say I blame him tho, this just makes me more upset about all the planned obselece we deal with on literally everything we buy. I couldnt afford ANYTHING that's made to this standard... unless maybe everything was made to this standard... fuck... fucking garbage ass shit on every shelf... I'm gunna go wittle a spoon
It occurs to me that all the things you do on this channel, are the same things I got scolded for as a child. I could not stop myself from taking apart everything in the house. I wanted to understand how they all functioned. It's probably the very reason I love this stuff so much!
This was probably the most satisfying video I've seen of you tearing apart a product. That board was beautiful despite the solder looking a bit off, those braided wires omg. The fact that there was literally no glue? Omg that is amazing. Sometimes $500 will get you $500 worth of craftsmanship and this one truly shows
I am incredibly baked and randomly stumbled upon this youtube video of a man disassembling a toaster and getting choked up about it. Oddly, I was going through the same emotions as I watched him parse apart the item and examine its design--SUBSCRIBED
I for one follow the toasted to baked to fried progression, then follow the same path back fried to baked to toasted. The real question is, at what point your are willing to kill everybody in a 6 mile radius for a single chocolate covered Twinkie.
I love the vastness of his intelligence sneaking past those filthy lips before he has a chance to stop it. It just blows me away how much knowledge this man contains in that coconut of his. Also, I don't think I have ever seen him show so much excitement for such quality engineering before this episode.
Sena Yea idk how that’d work outside this specific comment section. I’d be willing you wouldn’t be stripping her that night if your first question is “are you made in Japan”
I spent 20 years running an Engineering development lab in Japan for a major 'Merican company. Your description of the perfection of the country matches my experience. It is a wondrous place. I greatly admire the culture....and the food! Oh, speaking of food. $500 for the toaster, not as crazy as the $120 Giftable Cantaloupe!

the way that this unit was designed is beautiful, i certainly believe that all modern products for the price we as consumers pay should be designed with the attention to detail and ease of repair that this toaster unit was made with, it still confounds me that with the detail that many common products are considered irreparable due to how they are constructed, this toaster proves that they can
Thanks for sharing. The toaster in the video is a really nice piece of equipment. I have a Japanese hot water dispenser I am pretty pleased with. You might know already, but I recently read that Teflon was developed/discovered as an unexpected result from attempting to develop other synthetic materials. Its first application was using it to separate Uranium 235 from U-238 for the nuclear bombs in WWII.
Im a Sportscar enthusiast/tuner. When folks ask me what the best "quality" vehicles are; My first answer is always Japanese. They just make quality stuff made to last, especially their engines.. Great vijeo btw!
Everytime I go to take a 💩 I find myself falling down a rabbithole that ends with a Canadian man of great wisdom reminding me with witty and clever commentary that every tool I own was built to inevitably fail and in the end my legs have fallen asleep and I have a better understanding of Caesars last moments .... Dewalt they name is Brutus... Now to back to work ..
The same company makes: space station modules, scanning electron microscopes, oil tankers and refineries, elevators, vehicles... Stands to reason they can make a half decent toaster.
@@thehorriblebright Not me... I bought a Mitsubishi Super VHS-HiFi vcr that distorted the sound on loud bass, making a clicking noise everytime the bass drum sounded. Checked two more at the store and all were that bad. Forgot it and went to a Sanyo SuperBeta HiFi 7250, which sound quality is astounding, even used it for live concert recording just before digital went the norm.
I’ve found the same to be true about working with Japanese guys, when something needs fixed they fix it first and sort out who’s going to be blamed later. Refreshing after a career of doing government work.
I've found that they can debate about fasteners and whatnot until they reach consensus and take months about it. In the West we just glue the fucking thing and be done with it.
The craft in that toaster is amazing, not seen anything like it from a mass market company before. It makes the price appear great value in return. I love it, thanks for showing it. Wonderful Bob
I'd like to see a teardown of a Zojirushi 'neuro-fuzzy' rice cooker. They're an extremely well-engineered consumer kitchen tool (with a price to match!)
The basic neuro-fuzzy ones are very simple. There is nothing much to see inside. The induction heating, pressure cooking ones might be more interesting.
@@Yonatan24 Average is relative to period and region. There were no rice cookers my family owned that didn't have issues with burning or a need to monitor where and when I was growing up. Even as an adult, most of my friends and co-workers who have cheap rice cookers hate and never used them because they were no more convenient than just using a pot on the stove.
"Hot pocket-y, chicken tendies, that sort of thing...will attack the silicone." AVE may very well be the only owner of a $500 toaster likely to defile said toaster with store-brand Chicken tendies.
14:50 Gold Star for me! Immediately recognized that as the same crap every toaster uses to heat. easy to deduce that there would be nichrome wire heating element in there. So fun to watch him reason through this stuff and generally very accurate. This case is on point the whole way through I ended up taking apart and rebuilding an espresso machine. not boiler type and a simple ukle pump. It was nicely put together and a joy to disassemble and reassemble. As though it were a project puzzle. The machine was prob from around early 2000 made by breville. Did same with a 2015 model or so of same brand but much more expensive model...it was a nightmare....example of difference the older entry level one was plates of stainless, the newer more expensive one was plastic with thin sheets of stainless, held on with little tabs that fold over lol
An FYI on those thermal fuses (made by Klixon, Snap-Disc, Thermo-Disc, etc) if you ever trip one. Remove it, and lay it flat/shiny face down on a flat table or countertop. Lay your hand, palm down, over the fuse to where you can "catch" it between 2 fingers, and lift it up with your hand remaining flat/open. Then slap it down hard, keeping it as flat as you can, against the table/countertop. Most of the time this causes the bi-metallic switch element to snap back and reset itself. (You may have to "slap" it a time or two if it doesn't reset the first time). The good thing is it doesn't force it to permanently close, as if it was jumpered out. It actually resets and functions as it should. I messed with several of these and made them open up on high temperature, "slapped" them back to life, then checked them out against their temp rating. They opened up within the +/-% rating of the switches. (I ran my water heater a tad hotter than most, and my dishwasher would trip the high limit/thermal fuse a couple times per year. I later lowered the heater to a more normal temp, and it never tripped again). Anyway, it verks!
Oh my goodness it's so lovely watching AvE simply be in awe of a product he is tearing down, rather than ripping it to pieces as he rips it to pieces. Thank you Japan
Back when I was a galley slave-boy, toast was made with fire and a certain amount of human adjustment to achieve the desired level of carbonisation. Not made by space-pixies or electrickery! What a time to be alive!

Amn old story, this would probably be from the 1970's, when component manufacture was shifting from the US to Japan. A US electronics manufacturer decided to send a part order to see what these newish Japanese semiconductor makers. In the order was a standard specification for an acceptable defective part rate. This apparently confused the Japanese, as included in the shipment was an explanatory note: "We have packaged defective components separately. We hope that this pleases you."
Thanks for the video! I like how one of the last vidjo's was "You ain't hungry, you're bored' and the next intro is melted cheese sandwich snacks. Don't let the depths of pandemic despair pull you in :) Cheers Ave! Thanks for the pandemic entertainment / edjumacation.
Lmao. That's the blue collar canadian special my friend. If ya weren't a hoser you'd know bud. Spend 10 minutes on my zamboni and you'll start to speak the lingo eh.
God, I love working on Japanese things so much. Electronics, yes, but especially early 90s Japanese cars. ...When they collide it's even better. I re-capped the ECU and gauge cluster in a 1993 Camry a few days ago and the circuit boards were all labeled with precision just like this thing. It brought tears to my eyes.
If you are looking for another Japanese Toaster with a similarly absurd price tag to tear down, Japan's Balmuda Toaster Oven that was released four years ago was released in the US a few weeks ago at the sky high price tag of $329. Could be interesting to see a battle of the Japanese Toaster Ovens

Only when you actually gouge the teflon. Don't get me wrong, I'm not recommending the use of OLFA's for your spatula, but in a pinch, in a shop, with gentle precision. Good to go.
I could understand from min 3 that ave loves this thing when he started closing the lid gentler
And by 21:00 our guy is nearly in tears, cant say I blame him tho, this just makes me more upset about all the planned obselece we deal with on literally everything we buy.
I couldnt afford ANYTHING that's made to this standard... unless maybe everything was made to this standard... fuck... fucking garbage ass shit on every shelf... I'm gunna go wittle a spoon
@@swayback7375 "Unless maybe everything was made to this standard"

It occurs to me that all the things you do on this channel, are the same things I got scolded for as a child. I could not stop myself from taking apart everything in the house. I wanted to understand how they all functioned. It's probably the very reason I love this stuff so much!
I did the same but as kid I couldn't figure out how to put it back together!
" you put a hot pocket in that father mucker, boy howdy shut the front door"
This is my new favorite thing to say
How did I go from scoffing at a piece of overpriced toaster to wanting one thanks to that perfectly toasty bread...?
I never imagined that I'd ever watch a grown ass man get so excited about a toaster.
This is not your average toaster though, that toaster is just a thing of beauty.
You haven't watched the technology connections radiant heat toaster videos?
@@Savagetechie Oh jeah, I did.. I totally forgot about that one :)
This was probably the most satisfying video I've seen of you tearing apart a product. That board was beautiful despite the solder looking a bit off, those braided wires omg. The fact that there was literally no glue? Omg that is amazing. Sometimes $500 will get you $500 worth of craftsmanship and this one truly shows
I am incredibly baked and randomly stumbled upon this youtube video of a man disassembling a toaster and getting choked up about it. Oddly, I was going through the same emotions as I watched him parse apart the item and examine its design--SUBSCRIBED
Never got fried bread from a toaster but have got toasted while frying.
is that anything like getting baked while cooking ? lol
@@gunfuego Meah.. Close enough..
@@HanSolo__ not even in the same ball park
@@skm9420 Man. Joke.
I for one follow the toasted to baked to fried progression, then follow the same path back fried to baked to toasted. The real question is, at what point your are willing to kill everybody in a 6 mile radius for a single chocolate covered Twinkie.
The precision almost brought a tear to the eye. That much attention to detail for a toaster. Bless those engineers.
The day AvE fell in love with a toaster
I love the vastness of his intelligence sneaking past those filthy lips before he has a chance to stop it. It just blows me away how much knowledge this man contains in that coconut of his. Also, I don't think I have ever seen him show so much excitement for such quality engineering before this episode.
When a product is beautiful on the outside and the inside, you know it's made in Japan
Are you made in Japan? I think so!
@@D4ng3rD4n that's a genius pick-up line. "Hey girl, are you made in Japan?"
Sena Yea idk how that’d work outside this specific comment section. I’d be willing you wouldn’t be stripping her that night if your first question is “are you made in Japan”
@@laundrysauce234"I've read everything made in Japan is beautiful on the inside, can I have a look?"
I spent 20 years running an Engineering development lab in Japan for a major 'Merican company. Your description of the perfection of the country matches my experience. It is a wondrous place. I greatly admire the culture....and the food!
Oh, speaking of food. $500 for the toaster, not as crazy as the $120 Giftable Cantaloupe!
I also love this aspect. But then you get to the insane red tape, the jobsworthism "the rules say this, we're technically compliant so fuck you" and it starts to get annoying. If you disagree, please fax your opinion to this number and we'll send our response by snail mail, to give you an appointment at our local office.
like the square watermelons?
And I much rather a 500$ toaster that will last me 10-15 years then a craptacular 100$ one that will make me cuss and curse for 5-7 years
Giftable cantaloupe? Is that Japan's way of saying sure I'll marry you but we just cantaloupe?
the way that this unit was designed is beautiful, i certainly believe that all modern products for the price we as consumers pay should be designed with the attention to detail and ease of repair that this toaster unit was made with, it still confounds me that with the detail that many common products are considered irreparable due to how they are constructed, this toaster proves that they can
Thanks for sharing. The toaster in the video is a really nice piece of equipment. I have a Japanese hot water dispenser I am pretty pleased with. You might know already, but I recently read that Teflon was developed/discovered as an unexpected result from attempting to develop other synthetic materials. Its first application was using it to separate Uranium 235 from U-238 for the nuclear bombs in WWII.
It's an TO-ST1-T from Mitsubishi, color retro brown. And yes that's the actual model number.
Someone from Mitsubishi has a good sense of humor and an excellent grasp of English.
Great news, it's only 400 dollars! What a steal!
Wow, $770 on the canada amazons.

On this episode of BOLTR: AvE cries tears of joy while taking apart a toaster.
Hey, Ave! Thank you for your advice at 19:45, that fuse was really the issue why the bottom heater wont heat. I owe you a beer!
Nice troubleshooting! Pew Pew!
Those crafty bastiges sure know how to engineer a toastie maker, I got hungry just watching the intro.
It was the melted cheese. Got me too.
0:52 got so triggered, could have easily fit diagonally without taking the tip off :)
agreed what the fuck
@@ProvokedTomcat Technically OCPD, I think.
AvE must have some jewish ancestry. Gotta take the tip off to be kosher.
Come on . . .Ave's a master at Trolling.
Im a Sportscar enthusiast/tuner. When folks ask me what the best "quality" vehicles are; My first answer is always Japanese. They just make quality stuff made to last, especially their engines.. Great vijeo btw!
Man i love this guy. I truly believe he is naturally funny, much funnier than many many stand up comedians and actors.
Everytime I go to take a 💩 I find myself falling down a rabbithole that ends with a Canadian man of great wisdom reminding me with witty and clever commentary that every tool I own was built to inevitably fail and in the end my legs have fallen asleep and I have a better understanding of Caesars last moments .... Dewalt they name is Brutus... Now to back to work ..
You should probably stop poopin' in rabbit holes. Although their fur is useful for when everyone's panic bought all the shitpaper.
You missed the opportunity to say that the "FR" setting is for glass fiber reinforced bread. My favorite!
The Tyttuutface is the FR frozen?
Nah. It stands for Fire Retardant.
FUCKIN' RYE !
Fruit roll
Front engine rear wheel makes more sense with the price
Cheers AvE! Got my decals in the mail I ordered off etsy the other day - awesome man! Thanks again from a fellow canuck.

The red wire with the ring terminal thing ;) to hold other wires in place was also very common in older Japanese electronic gear, too.
The same company makes: space station modules, scanning electron microscopes, oil tankers and refineries, elevators, vehicles... Stands to reason they can make a half decent toaster.
I even had a Mitsubishi vcr back in the 90s. A really good one at that with a teachable section on the remote.
Don't forget heavy arms.
and stonking rally cars, batteries, large scale transformers
@@thehorriblebright Not me... I bought a Mitsubishi Super VHS-HiFi vcr that distorted the sound on loud bass, making a clicking noise everytime the bass drum sounded. Checked two more at the store and all were that bad. Forgot it and went to a Sanyo SuperBeta HiFi 7250, which sound quality is astounding, even used it for live concert recording just before digital went the norm.
they were probably bored & hungry waiting for parts to turn up,so they made a toaster in the mean time,then said,shit,we could sell these.
I’ve found the same to be true about working with Japanese guys, when something needs fixed they fix it first and sort out who’s going to be blamed later. Refreshing after a career of doing government work.
they are very customer orientated. At the end of the day, if you can fix your customer's issue, he/she will keep coming back.
I've found that they can debate about fasteners and whatnot until they reach consensus and take months about it. In the West we just glue the fucking thing and be done with it.
The craft in that toaster is amazing, not seen anything like it from a mass market company before. It makes the price appear great value in return. I love it, thanks for showing it.
Wonderful
Bob
I've only just discovered AvE's videos and am hooked. The quality of his videos are only matched by the comments section. Bravo to all. :)
I'd like to see a teardown of a Zojirushi 'neuro-fuzzy' rice cooker. They're an extremely well-engineered consumer kitchen tool (with a price to match!)
The basic neuro-fuzzy ones are very simple. There is nothing much to see inside. The induction heating, pressure cooking ones might be more interesting.
They make fluffy rice
Seconded. I've had one of these for over 10 years now, with weekly use and no signs of degradation.
@@codbug Same, probably close to 15 years. What's so impressive about it? Seems average, no?
@@Yonatan24 Average is relative to period and region. There were no rice cookers my family owned that didn't have issues with burning or a need to monitor where and when I was growing up. Even as an adult, most of my friends and co-workers who have cheap rice cookers hate and never used them because they were no more convenient than just using a pot on the stove.
AvE you are the best internet uncle a maladjusted 20 something could ask for.
"Hot pocket-y, chicken tendies, that sort of thing...will attack the silicone."
AVE may very well be the only owner of a $500 toaster likely to defile said toaster with store-brand Chicken tendies.
Except he didn't talk like a baby
Really like your stuff. Your honest. And very knowledgeable. I hope this channel continues.
That's the most kind hearted teardown I've ever seen on this channel + you gave me a whole new appreciation for the J-A-pan!
🥃cheers🍻
Ladies and gentlemen it's a rare occasion where AvE actually likes something!!
I want to see him put it back together again, first. Lololol
This has to be the happiest I have ever heard you when doing a BOLTR video. You genuinely sounded happy at every turn. Fantastic.
Saturday morning, on lockdown, watching the dismantling of a toaster with an accompaniment of pep talk. It’s good to be alive
Label says: In case of blinkenlights, no touching of the hot stuff
2:00 That's a disguised Nox button, just in case a Subaru toaster shows up
Doesn't need to worry, the subaru will blow it's headgasket long before it arrives
"Blacker than sh- oh, you can't say that anymore."
The youtube subtitles have improved greatly. Always loved watching the robots interpretation of these videos
You know I can't help but think that the addition of some heating elements could turn the legendarily overbuilt Juicero into an epic panini press....
It's a Mitsubishi, "they built the planes that bombed Pearl Harbor."

14:50 Gold Star for me! Immediately recognized that as the same crap every toaster uses to heat. easy to deduce that there would be nichrome wire heating element in there.
So fun to watch him reason through this stuff and generally very accurate. This case is on point the whole way through
I ended up taking apart and rebuilding an espresso machine. not boiler type and a simple ukle pump. It was nicely put together and a joy to disassemble and reassemble. As though it were a project puzzle. The machine was prob from around early 2000 made by breville. Did same with a 2015 model or so of same brand but much more expensive model...it was a nightmare....example of difference the older entry level one was plates of stainless, the newer more expensive one was plastic with thin sheets of stainless, held on with little tabs that fold over lol
An FYI on those thermal fuses (made by Klixon, Snap-Disc, Thermo-Disc, etc) if you ever trip one. Remove it, and lay it flat/shiny face down on a flat table or countertop. Lay your hand, palm down, over the fuse to where you can "catch" it between 2 fingers, and lift it up with your hand remaining flat/open. Then slap it down hard, keeping it as flat as you can, against the table/countertop. Most of the time this causes the bi-metallic switch element to snap back and reset itself. (You may have to "slap" it a time or two if it doesn't reset the first time). The good thing is it doesn't force it to permanently close, as if it was jumpered out. It actually resets and functions as it should. I messed with several of these and made them open up on high temperature, "slapped" them back to life, then checked them out against their temp rating. They opened up within the +/-% rating of the switches. (I ran my water heater a tad hotter than most, and my dishwasher would trip the high limit/thermal fuse a couple times per year. I later lowered the heater to a more normal temp, and it never tripped again). Anyway, it verks!
Oh my goodness it's so lovely watching AvE simply be in awe of a product he is tearing down, rather than ripping it to pieces as he rips it to pieces. Thank you Japan
Back when I was a galley slave-boy, toast was made with fire and a certain amount of human adjustment to achieve the desired level of carbonisation.
Not made by space-pixies or electrickery!
What a time to be alive!
honestly you are so amusing and entertaining . thank you for lifting up my mood
This passion for crafstmanship and well thought out engineering and design is nothing short of infectious
"I don't judge...except them. They suck." Worth the price of admission.
Thank you for being the first person on TH-cam to actually review this thing and not just eat toast from it.
+100 points for "She's a beaut, Clark!"
Amazing movie.
Wow. That was amazing to see you so impressed with something. I know you’re a hard marker. Thank you for doing the vid.
That red wire to "nothing at all" seems like a heat resist way to hold those wires in place.
That's another detail that was common in Japanese stereo gear. Good catch!
Either that or its the antenna so it can bounce ones and zeros back to the mothership
It also provides a convenient jumper for bypassing the thermo fuse when the time comes.
@@BlindBatG34 for those 'I wanna toast a whole pig' kind of times?
Yeah it gets used all the time in ranges , ovens and cooktops.
I just found out my neighbor watches your show too.
He was recommending a tool and I said I don’t buy anything with out my favorite Canaderpian giving her the what for.
We then proceeded to rattle off our favorite boltr sayings!
Needless to say we are best friends now!
we’re now building a bunk bed to make room for activitys.

That breakfast looks amazing: a truly heart-stopping experience
Every video of your i watch I get so damn tickled at your commentary I have to keep rewinding to catch it all. Glorious.
Starts ripping toaster apart. "I don't think it is a microwave."
Amn old story, this would probably be from the 1970's, when component manufacture was shifting from the US to Japan. A US electronics manufacturer decided to send a part order to see what these newish Japanese semiconductor makers. In the order was a standard specification for an acceptable defective part rate. This apparently confused the Japanese, as included in the shipment was an explanatory note: "We have packaged defective components separately. We hope that this pleases you."
Sounds about right.
AvE waxing romantic and dare I say a tad bit poetic over a toaster? I can get on board with that. A well built tool is a well built tool.
This is genius and hilarious at the same time. An uncommon combination.. Thank you sir!
Thanks for the video! I like how one of the last vidjo's was "You ain't hungry, you're bored' and the next intro is melted cheese sandwich snacks. Don't let the depths of pandemic despair pull you in :) Cheers Ave! Thanks for the pandemic entertainment / edjumacation.
"6 on a scale 4 to 8" made me laugh so hard and it wasnt even a joke! It just sound so stupid and arbitrary :D
It's says "blinking: caution high temperature"
Indeed it does
This guy is speaking english and I can't understand a word he's saying
No kidding - felt like I'm having a stroke
and thats before he even got into the technical side of the toaster
Lmao. That's the blue collar canadian special my friend. If ya weren't a hoser you'd know bud. Spend 10 minutes on my zamboni and you'll start to speak the lingo eh.
Dick beaters = hands. 1/4 beer is a unit of time....watch a few more to get your brain chooching and you'll get it.
Listen long enough. you'll get it.
God, I love working on Japanese things so much. Electronics, yes, but especially early 90s Japanese cars. ...When they collide it's even better. I re-capped the ECU and gauge cluster in a 1993 Camry a few days ago and the circuit boards were all labeled with precision just like this thing. It brought tears to my eyes.
On today's episode, uncle Bumblefuck falls in love with a toaster!
Has the making of a Japanese alternative cartoon all over it...
I knew Uncle Bumblefuck was a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
If you are looking for another Japanese Toaster with a similarly absurd price tag to tear down, Japan's Balmuda Toaster Oven that was released four years ago was released in the US a few weeks ago at the sky high price tag of $329. Could be interesting to see a battle of the Japanese Toaster Ovens
