I was looking for some specific info on building the Fujimi Ferrari 641/2 kit and I happened to stumble across this Wonderful Blog, the Sato Factory Blog, now some of these Japanese builders just blow me away and when I find something like this that covers Hi-Detail builds of Tamiya, Fujimi and Hasegawa Formula One Car Models I just suck up INFO! Great step by step builds, modifications, info on aftermarket stuff as it is used and Well.. check it for yourself, my PC auto translated it from Japanese. satogfactory.blog.fc2.com/ it gave me some great info on a few builds I have planned, I learned a few things, it has paint colors used and other very usable build info. Make sure you have some time for this one I only looked at 3 or 4 in about 1 1/2 hours.. Great Stuff!! Chris |

Chris,
I just checked out the site, and it's indeed fantastic. I have the free Microsoft translator app, but it seems to only work on downloaded material on my computer. What program are you using that auto translates?
thanks,
Joel

Windows 10 using Outlook email, I have it set on auto translate because of the amount of Global email I get with ours and all the other forums I belong to . For web surfing I use Google Chrome as my main search engine. It works well with all all the international website's but that Auto translate maybe also be a function of my Avast security software too ..I can hit translate in the drop down box if it doesnt do it for some reason..

By the time I'm finished building these 1/12th kits, I'm going to be fluent in Japanese!

Chris,
I did find a translator app within the Windows 10 library online. Downloaded it, and set it to auto translate. Works pretty good. At least I can actually understand what they're talking about rather then using the pictures as my sole guide.
I've stayed with Edge, but I use Thunderbird (Mozilla) mail client. The less huge programs that auto default to Drive C, the better off I am as it's only a 256 GB SSD drive, while my Drive is 1 TB that I use for most applications and programs. I really should update that SSD now that the prices have come down, but I'm just not looking forward to a complete install.
