About Folded 01 Tūru Kai
Ko Folded 01 he tūru kai. Ko te nohoanga me te tuarā i hangaia mai i te pepa konumōhukahuka mata kotahi, i pekaina ā-ringa. Nā te āhua kōpaki e ū ai te tūru me te pānga pekanga māori e piki ake ai te whakamārietanga. Kua whakanohoia te pepa konumōhukahuka ki runga i te pou rino tae, e whakarato ana i tētahi taipitopito tae ngāwari. I whakaaweawea te hoahoa e te kōpakinga o tētahi tuhipoka pepa tapawhā, ka ū ana ka kōpakina. E 450 mm te whānui o te tūru, e 500 mm te hōhonu, e 800 mm te teitei. Ko te whāinga kia hoki ki te tino kiko o te taonga me te āhua mōkito.
