Chapter 23 Traditional crafts must never be lost!



Bai Lu: "Lin Feng made it."

When did this kid become so good at making noodles? Lu Zhun ate three bowls of noodles and still wasn't satisfied.

They even licked the leftover bits around the pot clean before they were satisfied.

Next, Lin Feng wanted to build a nest for the little guys.

Lin Feng took out a lot of wood materials from the yard.

There was also a wooden box.

[What's Feng Ge up to? Is he making his own furniture?]

Are these carving tools?

[Looking at how young Feng is, does he really have the skills? No way.]

The live stream was immediately filled with comments from netizens.

"Next, we need to make a nest for the little ones."

Lin Feng opened the toolbox, where many tools were neatly arranged.

"These are the tools we use every day!"

"A carpenter's saw. The old-fashioned ones are still the best. These are some of the most common carpentry tools, left behind by the previous forest ranger. They look like they've been around for many years."

"The ink line can be used to carve marks on wood; the wood chisel is used to carve small holes and shape them; and the wood plane can make the wood smoother and flatter."

Everything is ready, except for...

Lin Feng hadn't realized he'd forgotten to buy nails and glue; it was probably too late to buy them now.

"Um... we're missing some tools, but that's okay. Let's take on the challenge and make it using only wood."

Those netizens who were skeptical before are now staring at the screen in shock at Lin Feng.

【No, Feng-ge, I thought you were joking! I didn't expect you actually wanted to do carpentry!】

[Can cook, deliver babies, treat illnesses, and know about herbs? Dude, don't you ever leave any way for us ordinary folks to survive?]

I'm so looking forward to seeing what kind of nest Feng Ge will build!

He walked up to a piece of wood.

The first step is to cut the wood. Use a plane to cut the wood, then remove the knots, and finally use a precision ruler to measure the approximate length needed. The basic shape must be prepared first, otherwise everything else will be in vain.

Lin Feng wanted to build a small, square-shaped house.

The second step is to shape the wood into the desired form and place it section by section.

With his "craftsmanship skills," Lin Feng knew perfectly well that the length of his work was just right, and he knew exactly what it was for and how it was used.

Making the shape of a nest is so easy.

The saw flew up and down in Lin Feng's hands, and as pieces of wood were cut out, a rough prototype was quickly created.

Then, switch to a plane and repeatedly run it across the wood until the entire piece of wood is very smooth.

Soon, a small square nest was installed under the watchful eyes of netizens.

Not a single nail or glue was used.

Netizens exclaimed that it was awesome.

Lin Feng put the little ones inside, and the three little ones lay down on a soft mat.

(I like this place)

Lin Feng smiled.

Bai Lu stroked the little ones' heads.

"They seem to really like this little nest!"

This adorable little nest is perfect for the little ones!

[Doesn't live streaming require nails and glue? A big question mark!]

Next, we need to make a bed for Fang He. A bed is not as simple to make as a small nest.

This time, Lin Feng began to draw a draft of the bed on paper.

Every stroke of the pen seemed effortless.

Soon a rough draft was sketched out.

What else does the streamer need to do?

Lin Feng: "The nest we just made was just an experiment. Next, we'll make a bed."

He also painted a very exquisite carving on the headboard of the bed, a sculpture of cranes.

The initial sketch was completed quickly.

[I just timed the streamer; he finished the sketch in less than ten minutes. Is that even human speed?]

[Or am I seeing things? This draft is so detailed, it must have taken a long time to finish. Will we see the finished product today?]

However, the mortise and tenon joint is a very difficult craft to make, and most craftsmen do not have the skills to do it. They can only settle for using nails instead of wood.

Lin Feng always focused intently on his work, and gradually became immersed in the woodworking.

What he didn't know was that a netizen named Huaxia Architecture was already staring wide-eyed in astonishment.

As the saying goes, the layman sees the spectacle, the expert sees the details. His eyelids twitched, and he thought to himself, "This young man's skills are really extraordinary!"

He had already noticed how exquisite the blogger's work was when he was making his little home; the blogger completed such a small home in about 20 minutes.

Holding a carving knife, Lin Feng quickly began to carve the already outlined edge of the bed. His technique was skillful and fluid, with each stroke landing precisely where it should, without damaging the wood's essence, while perfectly presenting the details he wanted to depict.

His carpentry skills brought him a wealth of experience and expertise.

The boss who bought the timber was shocked when he saw him in the live stream. Having been a carpenter for so many years, he was naturally an expert and could tell at a glance that this young man was so skilled in carpentry that he was definitely not a novice.

The shop owner couldn't help but feel a surge of interest; he figured the man's skills were probably even better than the carpenter in the shop.

At this moment, Lin Feng was completely immersed in the woodworking. His movements of sanding the wood were skilled and smooth, as if he were not doing woodworking but performing an art.
