Chapter 46646 Laying wooden floor (3)
The mortise and tenon technology is extensive and profound. Even in China, only a very small number of people can master it.
So Xia Tian’s skills are not at the master level, but they are more than enough for daily use.
What's more, in modern home decoration, wooden floors as commodities use mortise and tenon structures and do not use glue. They are fixed little by little by hammering with a small wooden hammer through the elasticity of the wood itself.
"The edge treatment is to provide a fixed force when laying the tiles later. It doesn't need to be too precise, as long as they fit together perfectly."
Although Xia Tian said this, the movements of her hands did not seem rough or clumsy at all. Instead, it looked like she was doing some kind of sculpture art. At the same time, she was efficient and did not seem slow.
After making the two wooden boards, the fit of the edges is already very obvious, and anyone can see the relationship between them.
[Wow, this is such a perfect match, and the host actually made this with his bare hands???]
[I also think this is some lost woodworking craft from ancient Earth, right?]
"Even with machines nowadays, I don't think there's a program for this, but Xia Xia actually made it by hand, and so quickly?! !"
[I can't believe it. What kind of horrible streamer am I following...]
"It's nothing, practice makes perfect. In fact, you can try it at home and practice more. You might learn it someday. Don't think too much. I figured it out slowly at the beginning." Xia Tian's hands kept moving, and she occasionally took time to chat with the audience in the live broadcast room.
Si Ye's teaching and the lack of culture and art in the interstellar era gave her great self-confidence.
Now she inexplicably had a strange feeling. She felt that as long as everyone could study hard, although they could not achieve any exaggerated heights of achievement, they could still get the results they wanted in the context of the severe lack of culture and technology in the interstellar era.
Most importantly, she felt that the reason for this state of affairs in the interstellar age was that everyone was too dependent on the outside world and too lazy to do things themselves. Over time, the corresponding motor nerves and muscles would degenerate and atrophy, and it would be difficult to do something later on.
"But everyone should also have self-confidence. No matter what the result is, as long as you can start doing it yourself and stick to it to the end, this is the best state." Xia Tian encouraged everyone.
There is a saying in their live broadcast industry, "Completion is more important than perfection", and it actually applies to other fields as well.
Because nothing is truly perfect. If you pursue perfection too much when doing something, you will ignore the thing itself.
But if you can complete it every time, find the shortcomings and improve them from the final results, you can always be in a state of progress.
Although we cannot reach perfection, we are always moving towards perfection.
"If you focus more on the results than the imperfections, and become hesitant to start something, or even give up halfway, then no matter how well you do the initial work, without the final result, it will be meaningless. So, you must start and persevere to complete it."
