Chapter 198 One knife and one time

According to the assessment rules, the bamboo strips of this half of the bamboo stalks are all divided horizontally. In the previous life, if two or three sections of bamboo stalks were divided into strips, Wang Nanxing usually divided them vertically.

The disadvantage of horizontal splitting is that it is slow and delays work, but the advantage is that it is easier to control the width of the bamboo strips.

Let's start. She holds the second half of the stalk (bamboo head) in her left armpit, with the bamboo tips facing outward; the bamboo flesh facing up, and the bamboo skin facing down; the bamboo strips knife is upright and wedged in the gap (90-degree vertical).

At this time, the right hand holding the bamboo strip knife must be close to the bamboo skin, so that the bamboo strip knife can be used like an arm.

Now almost one craftsman can stare at one candidate. Wang Ge adjusted his sight so that he could not see the craftsman with his peripheral vision, otherwise he would be distracted. The key to dividing the bamboo strips horizontally is the position of the bamboo strips. Try to keep it as tight as possible, and push the bamboo outward with your left hand (

You also need to use your right hand hard, otherwise the bamboo strip knife will be pushed far). When pushing five or six inches apart, stop briefly and turn the bamboo strip knife slightly sideways with your right hand (clockwise).

Click...

Bamboo cracked.

Continue to push the bamboo strips five or six inches apart, pause briefly, and turn the blade sideways.

Click...

Push the bamboo.

When reaching the bamboo joint, pay attention. It is best to use the technique of turning the blade sideways to cut through the bamboo joint. (If you do not use this method and cut directly, your left hand must hold the bamboo seam that has cracked due to inertia.) It is easiest to cross the bamboo joint.

If one side of the bamboo strip is wider and the other side is narrower, you can press the blade in the wider direction to adjust it back.

When the bamboo strips reach the end, the splitting inertia of the bamboo strips is very strong. To prevent it from splitting to the end in an instant (if the width is different at this time, it cannot be adjusted), just like crossing the bamboo knots, pinch the gaps on both sides of the bamboo strips each time it splits with your left hand.

, the pinching position keeps moving backwards with the position of the blade.

Click, click, click...

Until one bamboo strip is finished.

Continue to the second strip.

Note that the process of horizontally splitting bamboo strips is to first split the bamboo strips with deep cuts (each width is six minutes), then split them one by one again, and split the bamboo strips with shallow cuts. At this time,

Bamboo strips are the three-point spacing standard. What’s more, after all the bamboo strips for deep splitting are finished, the bamboo joints on the inner wall must be removed before splitting again.

In the process of splitting bamboo strips horizontally, the craftsmen's assessment criteria are as follows: first, when the strips reach the bamboo joints, do the candidates have the technique to squeeze the bamboo gaps tightly? Or do they make the bamboo stalks split to the end? Without this step, even if the bamboo strips happen to reach the

The standard of splitting is also eliminated. Secondly, when removing the bamboo joints on the inner wall, is the blade close to the inner wall of the bamboo? This step can only cut the bamboo strips once. If the bamboo joints on the inner wall cannot be cut with one knife, it is eliminated. Then it is tested whether it can be controlled.

Blade angle and strength.

Time passed quickly, and Wang Ge was busy at a fast pace. The horizontal stripes ended and the vertical stripes began.

Pick up the other half of the bamboo stalk that you just put aside, and use the tail end (hand grip) of the bamboo knife to wedge it in from the first deep split. Vertical splitting can best take advantage of the inertia of the bamboo splitting, but remember, this is not a single section.

The short bamboo stalks have bamboo joints in the middle. The bamboo strips must not be split directly from the top, otherwise the bamboo strips will twist and crack. The split gap should be pinched tightly with the left hand, and the bamboo stalks with the right hand should be lifted quickly and lightly.

, gently pound the bamboo on the ground. Following this rhythm, the blade goes down, down, pauses, turns the knife, goes down, down, pauses, turns the knife, always looping in this way.

Remember, this is a competition, not ordinary bamboo bamboo. It is allowed to throw away scraps and allow continuous correction of width. Both horizontal bamboo and vertical bamboo can only be corrected once. That is because the assessment requirements must include this.

Any other discrepancies in width will be discovered by the craftsmen and judged as mistakes.

Boom!

The timer drum sounds.

The craftsman inspected all the bamboo strips and found that, except for the two bamboo strips that were allowed to be corrected in width, the head ends, tail ends, and bamboo joints of the remaining bamboo strips could all be three-quarters apart in order to pass.

To the surprise of many people, the requirements for horizontal and vertical fences are so complicated that no one is eliminated. But if you think about it carefully, this is normal. The reason for the elimination of the first two items is basically the time period of the steps.

The prediction is wrong, not the skill is bad.

Boring!

The fourth and final step begins: three swords leave green stripes!

This test tests the bamboo craftsman's understanding of the cross-sectional structure of bamboo stalks: bamboo green, bamboo yellow, and bamboo flesh.

The whole step involves only one piece of bamboo.

The bamboo strip selected by Wang Ge: the length is more than three feet and four inches; the width (the curved surface of the bamboo flesh) is three minutes, and the thickness is less than four minutes.

One knife and one time!

The first cut: remove the yellow stripe.

Key points: Remove most of the bamboo flesh, and the removed part is thicker than the remaining one.

Fix the knife with your right hand, and fix the position where the knife and the bamboo strip meet; pinch the bamboo strip with your left hand, with the green side of the bamboo facing up and the flesh of the bamboo facing down; when the blade is wedged in, the thumb and index finger of your right hand should both hold the blade and hold it

Where the knife meets the bamboo strip; squeeze the blade into the bamboo strip.

Push the bamboo!

During the process of pushing the bamboo, try to keep the position of the bamboo knife as stable as possible, and do not shake it back and forth. When pushing the bamboo strip towards the blade with your left hand, use force, because the bamboo strip is unstable, and the knife is useless no matter how stable it is. And the thumb holding the knife should always be pressed

Holding the split green bamboo.

Push the bamboo, push the bamboo...

The knife surface should always be close to the bamboo yellow.

Pushing to the position of the bamboo joint, hold the position behind the bamboo joint tightly with your left hand. At the moment of passing the bamboo joint, the bamboo strips knife in the right hand is raised and dropped quickly, splitting through the bamboo joint, which is equivalent to a carbine.

It’s the Bamboo Festival.

Keep pushing bamboo...

Boom! The timer sounded, and Wang Ge wiped the sweat above his eyes.

She calculated the time for the first step of the knife, which was exactly seventeen breaths. Each of the two bamboo knots was given eight breaths, and the crossing of the bamboo knot was given one breath. This time period is very strict.

Sure enough, as many as thirty-one people were eliminated, and the total number of eliminations was already ninety-four, with fifty-six people still to go.

Boring!

The second cut: remove the bamboo skin.

Key points: The remaining green bamboo layer must be thicker than the bamboo layer (otherwise it will increase the difficulty of the third cut).

The bamboo knife squeezes into the bamboo strips, the horizontal blade is close to the bamboo skin, and the left hand pushes the bamboo.

The left hand can never be far away from the right hand holding the bamboo strip knife. This distance is less than an inch at the farthest and is close to the blade edge at the latest.

Push the bamboo, push the bamboo...

Arrive at the bamboo joint. This time when crossing the bamboo joint, you cannot follow the "returning gun" method just now, because the entire bamboo strip is already thin and slightly soft. You should pinch the bamboo joint with the thumb and index finger of your left hand, and use your right hand to squeeze the blade into the joint.

.

Celebrating the Bamboo Festival.

Keep pushing the bamboo.

This step lasts for sixteen breaths.

Twelve people were eliminated. There are currently 244 quasi-craftsmen.

Boring!

The last step of the first round of competition.

The third cut begins: cutting the green bamboo strips.

Key point: The position of the cut in the section determines everything!

Compete to see who has the thinnest green bamboo stripe layer. Those who time out will be eliminated first, and then the ones with the thinnest green bamboo stripe will be eliminated last.

Use the thinnest edge of the bamboo knife to cut across the cross section. Usually when bamboo is made, the bamboo craftsman will tear the bamboo with his mouth after cutting the gap in this step. Because the back of the knife is thick, it will squeeze into the two bamboo layers without paying attention.

It can break the very soft green bamboo strips.

Therefore, the technique can only be like the second knife cutting through the bamboo joint. Hold the bamboo piece tightly with your left hand from beginning to end, close to the edge of the knife, push the edge up little by little, and always observe the thickness of the remaining green bamboo strips.

Every time you push the bamboo piece, there is a slight "hissing" sound.

Wang Ge frowned, and his heartbeat accelerated with the "hiss" sounds. Is it time for the timer drum to go off? Is it about to go off? Is it going to go off soon? Speed ​​up, go faster, you have to speed up!

It's too late!

Boom!

Haha... except for the drum, the surroundings were so quiet, she could hear herself sighing.

I'm feeling a little unwell, maybe I've been tricked. I can't concentrate, and I'm not in good shape when writing code. Tomorrow's update may be even more abnormal. Sorry.
Chapter completed!
