Sure enough, the rain is still falling, but it's not too big, and the weather should not stop for a short time, there is no wind in the morning, and the weather is a little stuffy. www.biquge.info In this place, the temperature difference between morning and evening is quite large.

Fortunately, my current physique is acceptable, and I may have begun to adapt to here, and I have been sick for a long time. Let's hope this continues. After drinking a glass of water in his hand, looking at the wet outside, he really couldn't lift his spirits.

Just now, I was surprised to find that the little lightning can actually stand, although it is still a little shaky, maybe it will not be long before the little guy can be seen running around. But when I think about the lightning that fills the house, my head hurts a little, and I am most afraid that it will bite things, and if it bites all the bedding, food bags, etc., it will be troublesome.

The small pocket water tank I made yesterday has been baked overnight by the fire, and the appearance has been dry, but the inside is still a little wet, and it should still be baking for a while. You have to make a few more things, and when those few things are done, you can make the clay kiln as soon as possible according to the method recorded in the notebook, and then you can try to burn a little tile to see, and you don't have to worry about the aging of the coconut leaves on the roof. Don't worry about rain leaks.

When I came to the outside of the shed, although it was a little wet inside, it didn't have any effect, and I didn't add a fence when I built the shed. After all, an open shed is more suitable for operation.

Looking at the dirt in the pit, it was okay, but there were some lumps, but it didn't dry, and it became sticky again after jumping down and stepping on it a few times.

The problem of soil is not big, but how to make the mud block into an arc-shaped surface, that is, to make the wet mud become a curved mud embryo after drying, gives me a bit of a headache. It wasn't until ten minutes later that I came up with a solution.

I dragged a small tree trunk over and cut it to about a meter long, then forcefully split it in the middle and stuck a stone in the crack that was split. Hit small stones with the back of an axe. As the stone slided, the trunk slowly cracked and finally split in half.

The reason why you want to do this is because the tile only needs a little curvature, if you don't split the trunk in half, the bend of the tile is too big, you can't use it at all, only after the trunk is split, the mud embryo will be directly covered, and it can become more practical after it is dry and hard.

The making of the tile embryo is very simple, just dig out a large piece of mud, pat it evenly and wipe it evenly, and use branches to flatten all four sides. The tiles are all rectangular, and I patted them for a while after I finished doing them, in the words of my notebook, to try to beat them as much as possible so that all the air inside came out. In this way, it will not crack easily when fired.

I have to say that the soil on this termite nest is really delicate, much more delicate than ordinary soil. To be honest, I still have some doubts about whether these tiles can be fired into real tiles. In my imagination, the mud embryo is very brittle after it is dried, and it really won't break apart when it is burned by fire? But all this can only be known after the tile embryo is dried and fired.

It takes about ten minutes for a tile embryo, and because it was the first time, I didn't dare to do too much for fear of wasting it. If you do too much and end up all of it will fall apart, then your mood will inevitably become very low. And this time the dirt was all so little. There is one more crucial object to be crafted.

This object is the key to firing the tile kiln. The kiln is a pit dug in the ground, and this object is the lid that covers the pit, but it is not a lid, because it needs to be opened to make the fire more condensed and the fire temperature in the furnace higher. And with this lid, you can put the finished embryos on it. The embryo should not be burned directly in the fire.

This lid is not so easy to make, I have to estimate the size of the clay cave before making this lid. It took several strokes on the ground with a twig before finally the size of the lid was given.

The diameter of this lid is about sixty centimeters, and the thickness is about three centimeters. This thickness is only the first speculation, I'm not sure. If it's too thick, I'm afraid it will crack before it burns. If it's too thin, I'm worried that the tile will break if I put it up. It's really hard to have no experience.

This lid uses up a lot of dirt, so smooth the edges as much as possible, pat it in the middle, and then make it a little more rounded. This may not seem difficult, but the workload is much larger than the previous tiles.

First of all, because of its weight, it is not convenient to move, especially if it has not dried, if it is forcibly moved, it can only tear off a few pieces of mud quickly. The large lid can only be moved after it has dried naturally.

Now the rain is still falling, and we have to wait for them to dry when these are done, so the kiln can also be dug up first. When the lid is dry, you can go straight to work.

Of course, the kiln is dug directly in the shed, and the sharp part of the back of the fire axe is used to dig the pit faster than the knife, but the speed is only relative. If there is a sapper shovel or something, the speed of that kind of digging is considered fast. But alas, I don't! I can't imagine what material can be used to make a shovel. Stones, wood chips, don't seem to work, I don't have iron sheets or anything, so I can only think about it.

This pit needs to be at least 60 centimeters deep. And two pits to be dug more. One of the pits was used as a kiln, and the other pit was used for me to add firewood to it.

The two pits cannot be connected together, at least leave a distance of more than 30 centimeters, and after the two pits are dug, connect the two holes from the bottom of the pit. There is a reason for this, if two pits are connected together, then there is no point in digging them. Only by following the current method can a closed stove be formed. Of course, I also had to make a few stove sticks, which had to be placed near the bottom of the stove.

Although the notebook does not write the usefulness of the stove strips, it is supposed to use the principle of air circulation to make these branches and other materials burn more thoroughly, and also make the ashes that burn down fall directly from the gap between the stoves to the bottom without affecting the combustion.

When I finished all these things, the rain actually stopped, but the weather was still not very good, probably temporary, just as I got up and stretched to rest, there was a sound of rustling not far away, and I immediately drew my pistol in vigilance.

As a result, it turned out to be lightning...... The little guy actually crawled out of the treehouse......
