Is always nice to get detailed measurements for an item before you buy it. Here are the dimensions for ukulele tuning pegs on Amazon.

Several years ago the wife and I purchased a kerosene heater that we had to put together. All the instructions were in Japanese. Wife tried following the diagrams and directing me what to do. A good time was had by all (NOT). But 50 years later, we're still married.

Install a Japanese keyboard on a tablet and install the Google Translate app. I have done this with a Thai keyboard to get translations from Thai to English.

There are cell phone apps that, using the camera, can present the text in your own language.

e.g. https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/google-translate/id414706506?mt=8

I'm surprised the product comes from Japan, or maybe it doesn't.
