We tend to think about knowledge in terms of progressive accumulation, in that every next generation has more information at our disposal than the one that came before it. However, what is less recognised is the knowledge that is lost during progress. In architecture, in particular, little attention is paid to the way in which the standardization of construction practices has led to craft techniques falling along the way. ⾞差栓継ぎ仕-2016. GIF via The Joinery (@TheJoinery_jp) Nowhere is it more obvious than Japan, a nation with an architectural tradition like no other. Long before screws and metal fasteners became de rigueur, Japanese builders mastered the art of wooden carpentry. Using techniques that have been handed over to guilds and families for centuries, Japanese builders would blend wooden beams together without external fasteners. The buildings would endure for generations, holding together only with tension and twitching. Over time, these traditional construction practices have largely fallen out of ordinary use, although they have continued to serve as a source of inspiration to architects such as Japanese master Shiger Ban. While traditional carpentry techniques were documented in books and archives, their two-dimensional depictions were difficult to visualize; that is, until recently, when one wood processor decided to return these techniques from the dead to gif form. 継 Kawai-tsugite. Via The Joinery (@TheJoinery_jp) is @TheJoinery__jp's Twitter account of this artist, a young Japanese man who works in automotive marketing during the day. At the time of writing, he created GIF illustrations of 81 traditional wood joints. The project is ongoing, as the creator continues to search for new information about this fascinating tradition from books, magazines and other archival sources. To create its GIFs, The Joinery uses the fusion 360 mechanical design software. The woodworker's own experience brings an expert skill to animation, which deftly conjures up the pleasure that comes when the parts fit perfectly. All in all, the project is a great example of how modern technology can facilitate novel, dynamic engagement with old secrets buried inside the archive. In fact, as ArchDaily's Patrick Lynch points out, these carpentry techniques can still be relevant, as CNS milling and 3D-making continue to transform the way we build.

Yogoya type traditional framing roof, called western style. Japanese joinery was developed more than a millennium ago from the ancient Chinese influence of wooden architecture[1] and uses distinctive woodwork compounds. This includes the construction of wooden furniture without the use of nails, screws, glue or power tools. [2] Carpentry schools Although there is a fundamental practice shared by all Japanese carpenters, defined by the vocabulary of tools and joints and the method of operation, the carpenter will usually with one of the four different carpentry professions. Miyadaiku is known for building Japanese shrines and temples, and is known for using elaborate wooden compounds and the fact that the buildings they build are often among the world's longest-lived surviving wooden structures. Tea rooms and living carpenters, known as sukiya-daiku奇屋⼤⼤, are known for their delicate aesthetic structures using rustic materials. Furniture manufacturers are known as sashimono-shi, and interior finishing carpentries, which build shōji and ranma 欄, are 建具屋 in time. [3] Although it is rare to find sashimono-shi or tateguya who practice outside their area, it is not uncommon for carpentry to work simultaneously as miyadaiku and sukiyadaiku. Tools Using saws, adzes, chisels, yarigannas and sumitsubos in the construction site Although most Japanese wooden tools are a direct copy of their Chinese Lu Ban origin, some have been modified to suit their indigenous needs, such as kanna and the removal of its handle blade. [4] The tools commonly used by Japanese carpenters are divided into several basic families, within which there are a multitude of variations and specializations aimed at specific tasks: Ryoba Japanese saw (nokogiri 鋸), which cuts on the move rather than on an otherwise globally dominant push stroke. This allows the blades to be quite thin compared to the western saw. There are two main types of cutting teeth on Japanese saws: crosscut (yokobiki 横挽)and rip (tatebiki 縦挽).). The cleft and crossword are combined in a single blade, known as ryoba (illuminated. double edge:; 両刃). Patterns of clefts and crossings are also made in single-cut saws, kataha nokogiri 刃, both with stiff back pieces and without. Solid saws, known as douzuki (inflamed. attached trunk; 胴付) are commonly used in cutting fine joinery. There are many other types of Japanese saws: osae-biki 押引⼤鋸 (inflamed. press-cut saw), which is used to cut wedges to the surface without ruining the surface. The teeth of the saw do not have been placed on one or both sides to accomplish this feat. There is azebiki (lit. ridge saw; 畔挽), which has cutting and rip and crosscut teeth, and is short and rounded in profile. It is used for sawing in confined areas and initial incisions in the middle of the surface. There are many other types and subtypes of saw. Most of the saws sold in the West are mass-produced items with induction-hardened teeth and relatively cheap replaceable blades. Handmade wrought saws are very difficult to make and involve multiple production steps in forging for completion than airplanes or chisels. Kanna Japanese plane (kanna 鉋), is most often a wooden block, or dai (⼤) containing a laminated blade, a sub-blade and secures a pin. On a Japanese plane, is fixed in position primarily by the impact of the aircraft being cut on the sides of the dai. This is similar to the still-produced type of European wooden plane, in which the blade is attached so that a wooden wedge is eavesdropped. Unlike the Western plane, the support bed for the blade is not a flat surface on a Japanese plane - it is convex. The blade itself is narrowed in thickness to firmly squeeze into the dai when it is eavesdropped on. The blade is also narrowed to a width to allow it to adjust its projection by touching from side to side, so that a uniform shaving thickness can be achieved. Japanese aircraft are generally controlled by pulling rather than pushing, and work can be done in sedentary positions or using a full body for greater power. Considered part of the Kanna family, yarigana is an archaic type of Japanese plane resembling a spear. Yarigana is one piece of steel with one end used as a handle and the other forged into a blade in the form of a sheet. The carpenter holds the yarigana with two hands, perpendicular to the hands, and pulls towards his body, producing concave gugu in the wood. Yarigana was in universal use before the introduction of a wooden plane placed on a block in Japan, and today it is usually reserved for use on large circular pillars or in cases where the final element is desired a more rustic look. Chisel Japanese chisel (nomi 鑿). There are bench chisels, paring chisels, striking chisels, heavy wooden chisels and stains, and countless others for specialized applications. Like airplanes, blades are laminated constructions of hard steel/soft steel. The angle of the bevela usually varies from 20° to 35°, and mortising and heavy chisels have steep angles, and chisel chisel chisel chisel chisels have shallower angles. It is common in Japan to work with soft wood, so many chisels are made with this in mind and require to be bevele steep if used for heavier forests.

  • 4 Remembering the War in the Solomons
    4 Remembering the War in the Solomons Jonathan Fiji'; The Coming of the War The white people told us that a war would eventually come. But even though we listened, we didn't believe them. We couldn't think of any reason that fighting would come to the Solomons. Other people advised us that if fighting did come, we shouldn't be afraid. They said that even if a bomb fell, it would be five minutes before it exploded. All we had to do was pick it up and throw it to where it would explode away from us! 1 In 1942 I was still at schooi at Kwailabesi, in northeast Malaita. One day we saw the Seventh Day Adventist ship Melanesia arrive. But there were no . Solomon Islanders aboard, only missionaries. They warned all of the students that fighting was coming soon. They said "We will be leaving tonight. We can't say if we will ever see you again. But though we are leaving, the Americans may come to evacuate you. You must not worry, because there are Seventh Day Adventists among the Americans too." Some of the other students and I prepared to see our teachers off. At dusk we boarded a small postal boat, and we and the Melanesia traveled along in the dark, without any lights. By daybreak we had reached Siota, on N ggela, and at Taroaniara we camouflaged the two boats with branches. We went in two dinghies to Tulagi, the capital at that time, to see what was happening there. Very few people remained in town.

  • Sharpening Chisel and Plane Blades 2020 Freehand – Fast – in Top Quality Translation: C
    Friedrich Kollenrott Sharpening chisel and plane blades 2020 freehand – fast – in top quality Translation: C. Langfelder These instructions are intended to help all those who struggle to keep their tools at peak sharpness or who think there must be a better way of keeping them sharp. Woodworkers who nowadays chose to use unpowered hand tools for challenging projects are predominantly DIY enthusiasts, ie, people without specialist training. Where do they look for the necessary expertise, where do they find the information that they require? There are books, periodicals, courses – but above all the Internet. It’s where people interested in a common topic meet, it’s where they discuss things, and it’s where you’ll find an endless amount of information – from dreadful through useful to remarkably good stuff – also about sharpening tools. Sharpening has to be a topic of interest for anyone working with hand tools, because dull tools don’t work at all and poorly sharpened tools are a handicap. Only properly sharpened tools let you experience their full potential. Sharpening chisel and plane blades is not really difficult. But what complicates the start for newcomers is the unbelievable variety of sharpening tools, working techniques and processes. Every hand tool user will eventually develop from these a more or less individual sharpening method. What I am describing and illustrating in this book is neither the best method nor the only right method, but quite simply my method. I leave it to you to decide what is worth testing and possibly adopting. I often take the opportu- nity of pointing out alternatives.
