My Gocco PG-5 finally came today!!

Earlier in the year I had heard some twittering about the Gocco no longer being in production in Japan and that the increasing scarcity of machines had pushed up prices and also interest in them. I thought nothing of it until my path crossed once again with Gocco, by inadvertently finding an Etsy tutorial about printing using a Gocco on You Tube – it looked so easy and appealing that by the end of the video I was hooked. I eventually managed to procure myself a PG-5 from Australia, but not without having a major dilemma about purchasing, at a vastly inflated price, a machine that may become obsolete if they also stop making the consumables. There is one slight problem, the instructions are in Japanese! But then there is always You Tube to teach me how.
