Morisaki, a Kurume-based manufacturer of industrial cutter dies, is giving away dies that can be used to cut fabric to make masks. As a contribution to society, the company created a tool to hand-make a simple substitution for surgical masks, using towels or gauze. More than 80 groups have ordered the item since the service started on March 10. (*shipping costs to be covered by the recipients.) Source: Morisaki 2020/03/24
