Chapter 29: A New Lumberyard (3)

The next morning, after Wei Minsheng woke up, he saw the carpentry tools in the room, and felt that he should process some planks and strips or something, at least it would be much easier to build a house. With the wooden strips, you have to move the chicken coop out as soon as possible, the smell of chicken manure is too bad.

So he asked Steward Wang to find a villager who knew a little manual to come and learn how to use electric tools. After waiting for a while, Steward Wang brought a villager over and said to Wei Minsheng: "Master, this Wang Laosan used to have some carpentry in our village, which is a craft handed down from his ancestors, and there is no problem in making a table and bench or something." ”

Wei Minsheng said to Wang Laosan: "How long does it take you to make a table?" ”

Wang Laosan thought for a while and said: "Back to the master, it depends on what kind of wood is used, the wood used for the table for ordinary people to eat is much softer than cypress, and the processing is faster, if I do it alone, it may take seven days to do it." ”

Wei Minsheng listened to Wang Laosan's words and understood what he meant, because they didn't have iron tools, so the work efficiency was too low when processing wood, and all the use of a variety of complex mortise and tenon structures, more labor-intensive, so it would take several days to make a table, which was like their own world, the joints were made of iron nails, glue, angle iron, screws and other connectors, and a carpenter would wait to be hungry if he didn't make a few tables a day.

Wei Minsheng said: "I want to make a chicken coop out of wooden strips now, which is wider than the house you live in, can you do this?" ”

Wang Laosan thought for a while and said: "Master, your project is more troublesome than repairing a house, mainly because the processing of wooden strips is very troublesome, and if I am alone, I can't do it in three or five months." ”

Wei Minsheng said: "This matter is very simple, I have a tool here that can make wooden sticks very quickly. There is also a tool that quickly connects the strips of wood with nails. Moreover, this chicken coop is not inhabited, so there is no need to treat the surface of the wooden strips, which can save some time. According to the production ability of carpenters in our hometown, it may be enough to make this chicken coop in two days. Wait a minute, I'll show you how to use these tools. ”

Wei Minsheng asked Wang Laosan to take a few villagers to cut down an arm-thick miscellaneous tree and come back, and he installed electric tools and pneumatic tools in the yard. I took a look at the power of the table saw: 1800W, the power of the air compressor: 750W, sighed, alas, these two electric tigers, as soon as they start, the crane can not be used, it seems that the inverter should be expanded as soon as possible, and then add a 5KW inverter system, the previous inverter is mainly for the power supply of low-power electrical equipment, and the new one is specially used for high-power electrical equipment.

It's not that there are no trees on this mountain, it's just that there are no cypress trees that Wei Minsheng wants, so not long after Wei Minsheng installed and debugged, several villagers came back with a cedar tree.

Wei Minsheng asked the villagers to use axes to remove the bark of the cedar tree and saw it into a section about a meter long. Then let Wang Laosan carry the short log to the sawing machine of the table saw, adjust the position of the saw blade, and turn on the switch of the sawing machine. The sudden sound of the saw blade startled several villagers around, but seeing that Wei Minsheng didn't have any reaction, he was fine after getting used to it for a while. Wei Minsheng showed Wang Laosan how to saw the log into square logs, divide the square wood into thin planks, and then divide the planks into wooden strips. No way, this machine is too small, the maximum processing thickness is only 8CM, so Wei Minsheng asked them to find the trees are relatively small, after removing the bark, it is still a little thick, so they have to remove the places that are not easy to form in the square to make square wood, and then barely control it within the maximum processing thickness.

Since Wang Laosan is a carpenter himself, he will soon be able to operate alone. Wei Minsheng told him that he must pay attention to safety, this saw is very sharp, and his fingers will be sawed off if he is not careful, it doesn't matter if the work progress is slow, safety is the first priority.

Seeing that Wang Laosan's operation became more and more proficient, Wei Minsheng put down his heart, and taught him how to turn off the power of the table saw, and those places that could not be touched with his hands. Although you can't see electricity, you can be reincarnated by touching it with your hand. Several other villagers were sent to cut down this small tree and let Wang Laosan process it into wooden strips.

After processing a large number of wooden strips, Wei Minsheng taught Wang Laosan how to use an air pressure nail gun to connect the wooden strips, and then make them into square cages covering an area of about two square meters. In order to facilitate the picking up of eggs in the future, the bottom of the cage is made into a high front and low slope, the low wooden strip stretches all the way to the outside of the cage, and a wooden strip is used to block it, and some grass is tied with a thin wire on it as a buffer to avoid the eggs being damaged by the edges and corners of the wooden strip when they roll out. In front of the cage hangs a trough made of PVC sewer pipes that have not been used up in the digester, and a movable door is made on top of it, which can be easily uncovered.

Due to the improvement of the efficiency of the tools, it only took three days for Wang Laosan to make more than a dozen of these cages, and Wei Minsheng asked the villagers to lift the cages into the barbed wire, and moved all the hundreds of chickens fed in the mobile house to the cages, and then covered the cages with some weeds.

After a few days, Wei Minsheng felt that the concrete base should be solidified to a certain strength, and it should be no problem to install the crane and only send two people down at a time. So he gathered a few workers and went to the cliff in a truck with tools.

After climbing the cliff, Wei Minsheng put some lubricating oil on the wire rope of the crane, put one end of the hook into the pulley on the boom, and used the guard card to clamp the wire rope to prevent the wire rope from sliding out of the pulley, and then hung the iron cage.

Since the crane is going to be energized today, and Wang Laosan's chicken coop has been completed, Wei Minsheng cut off all the electricity of the woodworking power tools when he came over today. Wei Minsheng found a small wooden plank, hung it on the wooden frame of the grass shed, and then fixed the distribution box on the wooden board with screws, installed an air switch, and then connected the power supply.

Wei Minsheng operated the control handle, hoisted the iron cage, then pushed the boom to let the cage stick out of the edge of the cliff, and then controlled the crane to put the cage down. After leaving it for a few minutes, the tight wire rope suddenly lost its strength, and Wei Minsheng estimated that he should have reached the bottom of the cliff. He made a mark on the wire rope and lifted the cage up again. After trying up and down a few times, the position of the wire rope is about the same, and it should be put to the end. In order to ensure safety, Wei Minsheng asked the villagers to catch a sheep and put it in the cage to try again, and saw that the goat was not harmed at all, indicating that the cage did not roll after it went down, and it could be operated by real people.

Everyone watched Wei Minsheng operate the crane to test the cage up and down several times, no accident happened, and they all wanted to go up to experience the feeling of being suspended, under the prevention of Wei Minsheng, only one person went up for the first time, and after putting it down, the villager happily shouted below: "In the end, in the end." After Wei Minsheng brought the cage up again, the villagers came out to explain the situation below, it turned out that there was a lawn under the cliff, and there were some small trees growing sparsely. So Wei Minsheng asked him to bring tools again and put him down. After hearing the shout, he lifted the cage up again and let the two people go down again.

Three villagers cleaned up the weeds and weeds and trees under the cliff, Wei Minsheng thought on the cliff, this is too far apart, and the words are not very clear, wait a while or go to sell a few high-power walkie-talkies, the distance of these kilometers is still no problem, and when everyone is going to finish work, use the walkie-talkie to roar, and they will go over to lift them up, and they also need to cooperate up and down in the process of lifting, so as to avoid lifting the cage before they are ready, and it will be difficult to hurt people if they fall.
