Making Jade Artifacts with Ancient Methods
There were the following steps to making jade in the ancient method: 1. ** Sand pounding and grinding **: The stone sand was crushed with a pestle and mortar, then sieved. The stone sand was classified according to its size, and then the mud in the sand was rinsed with water. The clean sand sieved out could be used to grind jade articles later. The coarse particles were used for cutting, and the fine particles were used for carving. 2. If it was an emerald raw material, the outer shell would be wrapped with a rough stone, and this part of the stone would need to be cut off. In ancient times, two people would use a wooden frame to set up a jade, each holding one end of a steel bar, and carry out a saw-saw-like friction cutting. At the same time, a kettle with a hole in the bottom of the kettle would be hung on the jade, and the water would drip onto the jade, increasing the sharpness of the steel bar to cut off the stones on the surface. If it was the raw material of Hetian Jasper, the surface was covered with stone skin. When opening the jade, a teapot filled with black stone sand and water was hung on it. There was a hole in the bottom of the teapot, and the water mixed with black stone sand dripped onto the jade. Then, a steel wire saw was used to rub and cut back and forth to remove the stone skin. 3. ** Cutting into blocks or strips **: Use a sharp circular steel plate and hard red sand soaked in water to cut the jade material into blocks or strips. You can also use a cutting machine to change the corresponding tools according to different uses. After the preliminary design and drawing, the worker will use the cutting machine to cut off the excess jade material. 4. ** Punching (Grinding Edge)**: A punching tool made of a steel ring that is 45 to 20 centimeters thick and soaked in red sand will grind the edges and corners of the block or strip jade material to roughly shape the jade. Its working principle is similar to that of a pricking tool, but the pricking tool is changed. 5. Grind (Grind the surface): Grind the surface of the jade with a 20 - 30% thick steel plate to show a warm and soft luster. 6. "Dig out the hall (hollow the inside): When making a jade with an empty hall, first screw the steel drum into the center of the jade, so that a cylinder (jade pole) appears in the center of the jade. Then take out the jade pole and hollow out the inside of the jade. 7. "Embellishment (carving patterns)": Use a small round steel plate with sharp edges to polish the surface of the jade to create patterns. You can also use a small tool ("Ding Zi") to carve. Different types of tools will leave different patterns on the surface of the jade. 8. ** Drill (drilling)**: When making jade with hollow patterns, first use a diamond to drill through the small hole, then use a bow saw to rotate the fine stone sand back and forth to drill a round hole out of the jade. 9. [Penetrating Flower (Cutting According to Patterns)]: After drilling, use the steel wire string of the bow to pass through the small holes on the jade piece, and then cut it according to the pattern drawn with the fine stone sand soaked in water. 10. ** Hole drilling (punching small jade ware)**: When making snuff bottles, thumb rings, and other small jade ware, pull the "taut bow" back and forth to drive the "iron cup"(the lower end is embedded with a diamond) to rotate, and use the diamond to punch holes in the jade ware. 11. ** Wood (Polishing)**: Large jade articles are polished with a wooden mortar and soaked in yellow sand or various colored mortar. Small jade articles are polished with a small mortar made of dry calabash pieces. 12. ** Leather Pendant (Polishing)**: A leather pendant made of cowhide is used to polish the jade, making the jade appear bright and warm. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
