I Am a Chief in a Primitive Tribe
Chapter 76: Drawing kiln
After returning to the tribe, Mufeng asked him to send all the yellow clay to the vicinity of the cave where he lived.
He began to prepare pottery.
But pottery is very cumbersome, and there are many things to prepare.
He gave Mingguang a machete and asked him to chop a thick piece of wood to use as a tool for drawing blanks.
The so-called drawing tool can be rotated when making pottery to help shape the shape.
He first chopped down a column across the tree stump, rounded it bit by bit with his carpenter's axe, and made a disk nearly ten centimeters thick and twenty to thirty centimeters in radius.
The wood is a light and dry paulownia trunk that is particularly emphasized by the wood wind, which is very light.
Then he punched a round hole in the center of one side of the disc and cut a round stick of locust wood about five or six centimeters in diameter and more than half a meter in length to fit it inside.
In this way, the disc is supported by wooden sticks, like a small umbrella.
The last step is to put a stone about ten centimeters thick on each end, and set up a squared trunk on it. In this way, the distance between the trunk and the ground is almost ten centimeters.
He dug a hole almost the same thickness as the locust stick at one end of the tree trunk, and then pierced the trunk of the disc supported by the locust stick.
He stretched out his hand and turned the disk, and the disk turned quickly.
"It's done!" Mu Feng nodded, and a self-made simple blanking tool was completed.
But then he couldn't make pottery, because the firing of pottery was a lot more complicated, especially when the temperature requirements for pottery were extremely high, the firing time was also very long, and it took three to five days to start.
All he has to do is prepare for the pottery for three to five days.
This requires at least two things to be prepared, one is a cave dwelling for pottery, and the other is firewood.
The earth kiln has the shortest heat resistance time in the cave dwellings, and the stone kiln has the longest heat resistance time.
If the cave dwelling is not hot enough, there will be a risk of exploding the cave, which makes him particularly concerned about the heat resistance of the cave dwelling.
Although Mufeng has made craft pottery in his previous life, he has never done pottery.
He vaguely remembered that the master also told him when he was studying pottery that the quality of the finished pottery depends on the quality of the materials, craftsmanship and cave dwellings.
Mu Feng knows that the material is this material, and so is his own craftsmanship.
His only requirement now is that the pottery can be made. Whether it looks good or not is out of his consideration for the time being.
After thinking about it, he felt that he should choose a mound far away from his cave, dug a cave dwelling two meters square, piled it up with stones, and put muddy water on it to make the inside become relatively smooth.
In order to prevent accidents, he piled three layers of stones together, which relieved him.
Keep the windward vent and smoke vent, a simple small cave dwelling is ready.
By doing these two things alone, he couldn't make it right until the sunset.
No way, no one in the tribe knew what he was going to do, except to hand him the materials, he couldn't get in at all.
But that's not entirely true. At least in the afternoon, Mingguang led a few people to follow his example and dug a larger hole in the side.
However, this earth cave is not used for burning kilns, but for smoking charcoal-the temperature of burning kilns is currently only satisfied by charcoal.
After dinner, Mu Feng ran non-stop to smoke charcoal.
Smoked charcoal is relatively simple, but it takes more effort.
Mu Feng prepared the hay, lit it and put it in the earth hole, then put the prepared wood into the earth hole, watching the dry grass ignite the wood skin, and after waiting for a period of time, directly sealed the earth hole without leaving a gap.
After waiting for a long time, he opened the dirt hole and took out the black charcoal.
Then it was very hard to make according to the law.
Fortunately, Mufeng only demonstrated how to make the first batch of charcoal, and the next lot of wood was given to Mingguang and Shuofeng.
After finishing this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It took him a day to find the clay, and he was ready to start making pottery tomorrow.
When he returned to the cave, Lihu happened to be holding two bows and let Mu Feng try his power.
Because they are made of single-piece bows, the wooden wind is easy to pull.
What surprised him was that Lihu told him that both of the bows were made by Lihu himself. Baiya seemed to have learned quite well at the time, but failed to make them.
Mu Feng knew it well, and tried and said: "It's not bad, but it might be a little uncomfortable for Mingguang and Hanshu to use such a bow. The bow is too soft!"
Lihu scratched his head: "I also tried the two or three pieces you mentioned, but there is a gap in the middle when fixing it, and the bowstring is inconvenient. So far we haven't figured out how to fix it! "
"Huh?" Mu Feng frowned, "Didn't I already tell you, tie it with animal tendons."
Lihu's expression was even more embarrassing: "I also understood, but I didn't know what to do when I did it. Also, I'm afraid that the situation is the same for Maduo from the Blue Bird Department."
Mu Feng patted his forehead: "Sure enough!"
Lihu bows are like this, so Changning must have encountered the same problem.
"The other thing is..." Lihu said helplessly, "It's just that if the bowstring is pulled too full, it's easy to cut my fingers. You see, my fingers have been cut with several wounds."
Mu Feng sighed first, then sighed: "Forgot to tell you how to draw the bow. By the way, there is also a spreader!"
"Spreader?" Lihu puzzled, "What kind of spreader?"
Mu Feng said helplessly: "Well, let me first think about how to make this spreader, and then teach you how about it?"
"Okay!" Lihu couldn't help getting excited when he felt that Mu Feng was going to teach him new things again.
