Not always wood that deserves to be used as home ingredients can be processed with semi-automatic machine. The logs live in a special container and then the conveyor is pulled into a giant grinding gate. The wood then appears to be a board of various sizes. There are suitable for usuk, batten and ridge home.
Ease of that kind does not come in 60 years from Sariman Jember origin. He spent many years in and out of the woods to bend down 20 meters of wood. Usually of the type of bayur whose wood is brown or albasia whose wood is white.
"Why should they slip into the forest because of the location that sometimes in the depth of the ravine, or the road enter only a motorcycle can pass through," he said when splitting the wood type of taap in the village Beraban Tabanan, Bali.
Kampung located on the banks of the Suni River is indeed shady by trees as high as 20 meters. Assisted by colleagues named Darno 32 years old Sariman doing all the processes like being breathing. No need to think long or record every step he must do.
Trees as high as 20 meters are subjected only to a whipsaw or chain sow he calls it a sensor. With a 34,000 rpm speed machine with an ear-hearing sound he works for 8 hours a day. The first step he made was to make sure the tree he was going to saw would not hit another tree.
"Once clear where to go where the tree will fall I just need to do two steps sawing, one cross to determine the direction of trees will be torn down, another flat to help speed up the collapse of the tree," said the father of 2 children theorize.
Usually with two steps the tree falls right on the target, do not overwrite other trees and clean the branches too easy too.
And do not forget after falling at the base pancalnya ditancapkan three small branches, this kind of ajian so that during the process of cleavage sawn wood not squeezed in the middle of the road, "he said.
The 20-meter-long tree was then taken only 18 meters from the base. The 2-meter-long tip is only feasible for the yard fence because the fiber is still rough. While the 18 meter cut into 3 parts. "Wood boards for all sizes are normally have a length of 6 meters," he said.
The bottom spindle usually he split into 2 parts first. Then the rounded part is removed so that when in the process so the board does not roll wild.
"To make a 6 cm thick board with a width of 20 cm I never use a tool in the form of yarn dipped in soot, time consuming," he said.
The wood that has been missing the rounded part is tilted in such a way with a wooden branch ganjel. He then controls the whipsaw carefully, once forward and then twice backwards, this to make a gap. After passing from end to end, he moves his chainsaw simultaneously like a violinist playing classical music. The sound of the sound of the sensor engine sometimes echoed up into the distant river and valley. Only in a matter of less than 8 minutes thick board 6 cm wide 20 cm long 6 meters have been formed.
"It can be measured by 6 centimeters thick," he said without showing any slight tiredness. And it repeats until 3 spindles are complete by yielding at least 5 cubic timber boards of various sizes. The cost is calculated daily. He and Darno pocketed at least Rp 300,000 for his hard work all day at the bottom of the cliff. This includes the services of transporting the boards it produces to the side of a large road where wooden trucks wait faithfully.
In a week at least Sariman and Darno serve 3 calls to knock down the wood until it becomes a ready-made board. Once in a while, both of them go home to Jember to deliver money for the wife left in their village.
"This wood sawing job is actually a curse for both of us, I've worked as a mason, pour kebon at the hotel, but the tip of this sensor is the most loyal to provide income that approximates the basic needs of the family," said Sariman wide-ranged.
Working without shade makes his skin jet, the whistling of the sensor engine makes his ears less sensitive, but that is offset by his ability to make boards as thick as 6 inches without the help of sooty threads.
well that's the story about me splitting the wood into a board and others hopefully useful story from me.
