Method for connecting bamboo chips and bamboo chips with a bayonet

There were many ways to connect bamboo chips into bamboo boards. A common method was to use processes such as planing, stitching, and turning. First, the bamboo was cut into bamboo tubes and then split into bamboo strips. Next, the bamboo pieces were cut and glued into bamboo boards. Then, the bamboo board was cut horizontally and glued again to form a blank. Finally, through the processes of turning, polishing, assembling, and covering, bamboo products of various shapes were made, such as goldfish tanks, large soup basins, bowls, fruit boxes, tea basins, vases, and trophies. This artwork has the natural texture of bamboo, and its diameter is several times larger than that of bamboo. It also has a special artistic effect, which is both beautiful and practical. Other methods of connecting bamboo strips included binding, inserting, and burying the head in the cap. Among them, the binding method was suitable for simple connection of two bamboos, the inserting method was suitable for more complicated connection methods, and the burying cap method was suitable for thicker bamboos. In addition, sleeve connection and metal hoop connection could be used to connect the length, multi-directional connection and angle turning between bamboo. In short, there were many ways to connect bamboo chips into bamboo boards, and the specific choice would depend on the actual application scenario and requirements.

The fixing nails of bamboo chips were also called bamboo nails. They could be divided into two types according to their different uses: pressing nails and bolt nails. The pressing sheet nail was used to cooperate with the pressing sheet to fix the bamboo surface, while the bolt supporting nail was used to support the bolt position, such as the bottom of each wall on the support, to bear the seat force of the wall and fix the position of the wall. In addition, the bolt also secured the relevant tenon and mortise parts. The bamboo nails were generally cut into the shape of a round rod with a big top and a small bottom. Ming Dynasty furniture was often drilled with small bamboo nails from the mortise and tenon to strengthen it. The shape of the bamboo nail was required to be big at the top and small at the bottom. The cut surface was straight, the cross section of the bamboo green was slightly narrower than the bamboo yellow, and the wall thickness was equal to the width of the bamboo green surface. The specific specifications varied according to the use.

The common tools used to nail bamboo chips were bamboo nails, bamboo hammers, pointed hammers, wooden hammers, and so on. Among them, the bamboo nails were used to fix the bamboo pieces. They could be used together with the pressing sheet to fix the bamboo surface. Bamboo hammers, pointed hammers, and wooden hammers could be used to knock bamboo nails into bamboo sheets. These tools could effectively fix the bamboo pieces so that they would not loosen.

The bamboo pieces could be fixed with bolt nails or pressing nails. These two kinds of nails were used to fix bamboo furniture. The specific use depended on the situation. The bolt support nail is used to support the bolt position, such as the bottom of each wall on the support, to bear the seat force of the wall and fix the position of the wall. The pressing nails were used to cooperate with the pressing to fix the bamboo surface. The shape of these nails was required to be big at the top and small at the bottom. The cut surface was flat, the cross section of the bamboo green was slightly narrower than the bamboo yellow, and the wall thickness was equal to the width of the bamboo green surface. The specific specifications would vary according to the use.

There were two ways to breed bamboo: sowing and splitting. Sowing and reproduction was to collect mature seeds from October to November, then place the seeds in a pot and wait for them to germinate. Sub-plant reproduction was to split an adult bamboo plant into several smaller plants and then replant them in flower pots or gardens. These methods required suitable temperature, humidity, and light conditions to ensure the growth of the bamboo.

The maintenance methods of bamboo included the following aspects. First of all, the bamboo had a strong demand for light. It liked a bright environment, but it was not resistant to direct sunlight. Secondly, the bamboo liked a warm environment. The suitable growth temperature was around 18 ° C to 28 ° C to avoid large temperature changes. In addition, the bamboo had a moderate requirement for moisture. It could not be too dry or moist. It could be maintained in a moderate moist state. In addition, the bamboo required soft and fertile soil, so applying an appropriate amount of liquid fertilizer every once in a while could promote its growth. In terms of trimming, it was necessary to remove the withered leaves in time to maintain the health of the entire plant. At the same time, it was necessary to trim the leaves to maintain the orderly growth of the branches and leaves. In general, the maintenance methods of the bamboo included suitable light, temperature, moisture and nutrition, as well as timely trimming.

The maintenance methods of the green bamboo included choosing suitable soil, watering it reasonably, and paying attention to light. Green bamboo was suitable to be planted in loose, fertile, and well-drained soil. It was best to plant it in acidic sandy soil. When planting, pay attention to the drainage and ventilation of the soil to avoid long-term accumulation of water. In terms of watering, the Four Seasons Green Bamboo did not have a particularly high demand for water. It only needed to be watered once every two days to keep the soil moist but not accumulate water. In the rainy season or when there is water accumulation, it should be drained in time. In terms of light, the green bamboo liked sunlight, but it could not be exposed to strong light for a long time. It was best to maintain it in a semi-yin environment. In addition, pay attention to fertilizer, apply fertilizer three times a year, spring, summer, and winter. In short, the maintenance of the green bamboo needed to pay attention to the selection of soil, reasonable watering, and appropriate lighting.

The method of making a bamboo fence was as follows: First, find a few fresh bamboos, cut them down, and remove the scabs and tips. Then, he used a saw to cut the bamboo into the required height of the fence, and each section was cut open with a knife. Next, he made bamboo strips, cut the bamboo into a width of about 10 mm, and removed the yellow bamboo strips. He laid the bamboo pieces that he had just cut open on the ground and used the bamboo strips that he had made to connect the bamboo pieces according to the interweaving method. After the production was completed, he could choose to plant some flowers or trees to increase the aesthetics of the courtyard.

There were many ways to fix bamboo pieces. The following were some common methods: 1. [Binding method: You can use rope or thread to bind it.] He first marked the places that needed to be connected, then cut out a part that could be inserted into another bamboo, connected them together, and tied them up. 2. Plugging method: First, you need to cut off some bamboo skin at both ends to form a plug-like tip, trying to preserve the integrity of the bamboo piece as much as possible. Then, he connected the two bamboos together and inserted the peeled end into the other bamboo. Use glue, cement, or other materials to fix it. 3. [Buried head cap method: suitable for thicker bamboo.] He first made one end into a cylinder (also known as a "cap"), then cut a matching notch on the bamboo at the other end. Finally, he fastened the cap on it and secured it tightly with a tool. 4. Screw fixing method: You can use a screw to fix the bamboo pieces together. First, he laid down half of the bamboo piece, then passed the bamboo piece through the fixing incision, and then laid down half of the bamboo piece. Every five pieces were fixed once, and they were fixed with screws. These methods could be chosen according to actual needs and application scenarios.

There were several common methods to tie bamboo shelves. The first was the single circle method, which was suitable for situations where the diameter of the bamboo pole was not large. This method was to cross two bamboo poles, then pass one bamboo pole from the top to the bottom of the other bamboo pole, and then pass from the bottom to the top of the other bamboo pole to form a ring, and then pull the ring down. The second method was the double-circle method, which was suitable for bamboo poles with larger diameter. This method was to hold two crossed bamboo poles in one hand, then pass one bamboo pole from the top to the bottom of the other bamboo pole, and then from the bottom to the top of the third bamboo pole, forming a ring. Then, the ring was pulled down again, and the ring was pulled up again to pass under the third bamboo pole, forming a second ring. Finally, the ring was pulled tight. In addition, there was also the cross-knot binding method that was suitable for specific needs. For specific details and steps, you can refer to the provided document.
