Chapter 449: Treating Wooden Floors (1)
Compared with other building materials, wooden flooring has many advantages, but it also has disadvantages.
For example, the processing of the board is very important, otherwise it will easily become moldy and deteriorate, and the light ones may also be deformed, making the originally flat ground become uneven, increasing the risk of falling.
For example, the choice of board materials is also very particular. Pine wood is easy to obtain, but it is soft and easy to deform. Mahogany and rosewood are more expensive and costly. Home furnishings usually use oak or ash.
But as long as it is solid wood flooring, it has a service life, so the choice of different types of boards is not very important. The most important thing is the processing method.
"These are pre-treated wooden boards. Ah Ye prepared them for me this morning before he left. They can't be laid directly in the cave yet. They need to be dried first, and then coated with a waterproof maintenance layer." Xia Tian picked out the wooden boards and placed them in rows on the open space outside. "Now let's process them into the appropriate size and put them outside to dry. Then we'll look for materials to process them."
Are there any specific requirements for wood processing? StarCraft uses simulated wood. Although it looks similar to this, it feels different.
What's the point of having wooden floors? Besides providing a decorative touch, what other special functions can they offer?
[I'd like to ask how to deal with this. Besides, isn't the cold season coming soon? Why haven't we stocked up on food yet...]
Xia Tian processed all the wood into boards of equal length. Since Si Ye prepared wood of various materials for her, she needed to do a simple classification.
"The reason they're made into planks of similar size is because wood expands and contracts when heated and cooled, so you need to leave some space between them when laying them down. It'll look better if they're all about the same size..."
Xia Tian was chatting with the audience in the live broadcast room when she suddenly heard a strange voice, "Who are you talking to?"
When she heard the movement of her hands, she turned around and saw Bai Qin holding a small jar of something in his hand. He was standing there not far away, with a puzzled expression on his face. "Who are you talking to?"
"I..." Xia Tian then remembered that she was not living alone now. Bai Qin also lived next to her, but she didn't notice him just now.
She smiled awkwardly, "I'm not talking to anyone, I'm just talking to myself... What are you doing here? Your legs aren't working properly, right? The environment around here is quite complicated, so you should be careful when you go out on your own."
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. I've gotten used to it over the years... But you're very considerate, no wonder Xiaoye likes you. I'm ten years younger than you, and I would like you too." Bai Qin walked over with the help of a cane and sighed, "But I'm old now. It's no use liking someone. They won't look down on me, hahaha..."
"Ha, you have such good conditions and you are a witch doctor in Dongfang City, how come you can't find a partner..." Xia Tian replied dryly.
That day she heard from Si Ye and others that Bai Qin had probably been interested in Si Ye's mother, but they were not destined to be together and eventually broke up, and he could never let go.
But we can’t say that. When it’s time to open up, we still have to persuade people to let go.
Although... it doesn't make any sense.
