My Island Survival in the Wild

Chapter 325 How to Make the Loom
Many people even ignore that he is an anchor who has tens of millions of fans but has not signed a contract on any platform.

Seeing that Lin Xiu still refused to make products, the water friends were all regretful.

But they also expressed understanding.

Because the figurines of the wilderness group they wanted had to be made by Lin Xiu and the others, otherwise they would not have much collection value.

And Lin Xiu is far away on the deserted island now, so he can't send the figure out.

Seeing that the water friends expressed their understanding, Lin Xiu no longer struggled with this issue.

He put the pinched molds on a wooden board, and after a while, he and Xiong Batian carefully carried the molds back to the front of the furnace hole.

Lin Xiu put the mold on the fire and started firing.

"Would it be possible to turn things fired with yellow clay into porcelain?"

"If it turns into porcelain, wouldn't it be melted into one after the glass is poured on it!"

Seeing Lin Xiu start firing loess molds, some water friends asked curiously.

"That's a good question. Porcelain does come from the firing of clay, but I can't make porcelain like this. Porcelain firing needs to go through ten processes, which is extremely cumbersome."

"If I burn it out of a simple mold like me, no matter how long it burns, it will be just soil. Of course, if the temperature is higher, it may melt!"

"If you are interested in firing porcelain, I can demonstrate it to you in the future!"

Lin Xiu answered the questions for the water friends. The firing of porcelain is actually very simple, and it is not even as difficult as glass.

He will demonstrate it later without wasting time.

After adjusting the position of the mold, Lin Xiu took out the loess left over from before, and when he saw cracks in the fired mold, he applied some yellow mud on it.

It's just that this kind of behavior of standing directly by the furnace to mend the cracks, if the old master who fired the kiln saw it, he would definitely want to rush into the screen and beat him up.

You must know that the temperature of the furnace is very high, and you can feel the high temperature from more than ten meters away, and standing next to it is like a soldering iron.

Standing by the side while burning, in the eyes of experienced people, is tantamount to courting death.

The reason why Lin Xiu can bear it is because the temperature of the charcoal is not so high.

Of course, the most important thing is that his physique is beyond ordinary people. Even if the temperature inside the furnace is close to [-] degrees, he will not be able to stand by it.

It doesn't take much time to fire the molds. After the molds are all solidified, Lin Xiu clamps them out with tongs.

After burning the mold, the next thing to wait is the completion of glass firing.

During this period, Lin Xiu kept adding charcoal back and forth, and the time soon reached the afternoon.

Lu Ya came directly with dinner, and Lin Xiu and the others finished their dinner in the cave.

After more than an hour, Lin Xiu looked at the chimney where there was little smoke coming out, and said to the netizens in the live broadcast room: "Old irons, although the charcoal is burned today, there is not much smoke in itself. But under high-temperature smelting, the sand will also burn out smoke!"

"Now that the smoke is gone, it means that the sand has completely melted, and the initial glass has been formed!"

After saying that, Lin Xiu and Xiong Batian used a shovel to shovel out the charcoal in the furnace.

Looking at the two tons of sand inside, it has now turned into a whole puddle of somewhat cloudy liquid.

"If everyone ends at this step, the resulting glass will not be transparent, and you still need to add salt to it to make the glass clear!"

Although the burned liquid glass was still cloudy, Lin Xiu had already prepared for it.

He sprinkled a little salt into it, and soon the liquid settled clearly.

Lin Xiu poured the precipitated liquid glass into the mold with a shovel.

"It will take about a day for the glass to solidify, so let's just wait!"

After Lin Xiu finished filling the mold, there was still about [-] catties of liquid glass left.

These glass Linxiu directly spread it on wooden sticks and wooden boards.

This is used to cover the roof of the greenhouse, and the details of the shape can be slightly simplified.

The next thing he had to wait for was the glass to take shape.

……

After a night's rest, Lin Xiu asked Xiong Batian to start plowing the land with Xiong Meimei's tamed bison the next day.

The reason why he deliberately asked Xiong Meimei to tame the bison instead of letting Xiong Batian do the labor was not only to use the cow as a reserve food, but also to free himself.

Xiong Batian went to plow the land, so he could do other things.

"How the loom is made!"

Before starting to act, Lin Xiu began to recall the appearance of the loom he had seen before.

After they have made the cotton, they can start weaving.

But now, Lin Xiu found that he really didn't seem to have studied the loom in detail.

So now, he became unable to grasp some details.

It would be a pity for Lin Xiu to exchange knowledge with a universal illustrated book for this matter.

"It's rare that there is something that the anchor can't do haha!"

"Anchor, do you need to see the inside of the loom? I happen to have a loom here, so I took a picture for you!"

"Internal view of the loom.jpg"

"Niubi, brother upstairs, I remember seeing this kind of old-fashioned loom in my hometown when I was very young!"

"This stuff is considered an antique now!"

Seeing that Lin Xiu still has something he doesn't know how to do, the water friends in the live broadcast room were all very surprised.

And if you want to say that you are still a universal netizen, someone soon posted the old-fashioned loom that Lin Xiu wanted to make.

This kind of loom can only weave four threads at a time, so after entering the industrial age, it has been gradually eliminated, so it can be said that there are very few people who understand it.

"Thanks to this old man, this picture is very helpful today!"

Lin Xiu looked at the picture sent by the water friend, and found that his blurred details were all presented.

He thanked the water friend and sent a red envelope to him privately.

It's just that the other party came back with a reward soon. In this case, Lin Xiu is not good at forcing people to do things. However, most of the old-fashioned looms that are still kept are for collection.

"Anchor, if you want to thank me, just make the loom. I just want to reproduce this old craft!"

The water friend quickly made a request. Although he doesn't need money, he is very fascinated by craftsmanship.

This request is also reasonable, and it can enhance some program effects, Lin Xiu agreed without thinking about it.

"Okay, everyone, please pay attention, this is also a tutorial on looms, friends who want to learn can learn it!"

Lin Xiu said something to the water friends in the live broadcast room, and began to prepare materials.
