We were making a few wooden doors to decorate the room with a little wood in china. I was an unforgettable experience, 18 years old is the beginning of the age of society, full of creative thinking, so I have a strong interest in carpentry, that the study can be arbitrary, Tianyun rain, and that When Hou is still a good way to make money, do not mention how much I am "ambitious".
After the introduction of the relatives I am in the neighboring county Anren is also cousin fellow teacher began to start carpenter, Anren since ancient times, the simple folk customs, most folk craftsmen are from this, the teacher is also a teacher, Do not keep, for fear not.
Began to approach is finishing tools: grinding ax, grinding ax to face the edge of the line is not reflective, straight slope as a standard, an iron ax at least two or three pounds heavy, people squatting on a heel, both hands ax, A hand force on the hand, the fixed blade surface in the stone on the level of grinding back and forth, and the body can not follow the swing, so grinding out the ax oblique straight like bronze mirror, can think of this action more difficult, The ax is covered with sweat, in accordance with the requirements of Master I have not reached the speed of hard it, but not the future.
Grinding tool is the foundation, after the ax rough material will need to use the tape saws vertical profile, also known as open material, open material standard can reduce the material waste, but also easy to re-processing. Put the wood on the work surface, with the right heel step on the tread, left foot standing stand straight can not bend, right hand sawing the left hand to squeeze the blade do not float, the saw must be pulled to the end of both ends, eyes aimed at saw blades, The center line is symmetrical, walking along the line, master each action can be fast and good production, in the end is the need to make weight, this is the ancient way, and modern multi-purpose planing machine swept everything, and the quality standard speed Fast, a few years after the manual method may have to disappear without a trace.
After a few months of hard years, heavy labor gradually took away my original "ambition" finally decided to give up learning this craft, perhaps I was just a whim, did not think the door of art is not want to enter into thinking into Easy, alone is not enough ambition, but also their own hard work, dare under the hard work, learn a little fur can only be used as a hobby, how to go after the road, where to go, I did not think too much, obey the fate To arrange it!
For the pursuit of money I am better than the ideal life, I thought the money is much money enough to use, life flat faint worry-free, can only hope that the growth of children grow up, for the future society has contribution. Although I and the art of the body pass by, the ideal did not become a reality, hoping not to become wealth, boring when you think about what a thing, but also Handan toddler, do it yourself, enjoy yourself, enjoy The success and joy of manufacturing. Life should be flies real, happy, but also the same will be wonderful!
