Searching on Amazon and Google turned up surprisingly few options, and none that seemed both good quality and in-stock. Suggestions appreciated!

You can also make one very easily from items at home. Almost none of the sets sold to lay folks in the West are authentic, and are just simplified approximations with plastic bowls, missing pieces, incorrect pieces, so you might as well make one. Here are instructions how.

First, the following video will explain a bit about how to make and dance with **a simple, home Oryoki kit. All you need is:**

• 1 - Clean Pillow Case
• 2 - Bowls and 1 Tea Cup (that fit into each other)
• 1 - Cloth Napkin
• 1 - Small Wiping Cloth
• 1 - Table Spoon
• 1 - Tea Spoon or Chop Sticks
• 1 - Small Cut Piece of a New Sponge
• 1 - Letter Envelope
• 1 - A small dish on the side for the "Hungry Ghosts"

Soto or Rinzai?

If Soto, I am building a bunch right now. Since you have good timing, PM me your address and I will send you one as a gift.
