Chapter 230: : Reengineering

After Chen Chao recovered all the broken bronze saws to the ‘smelting plant’ for rebuilding, he originally planned to use this batch of scraps as hammers.
But after thinking about it carefully, the ratio of saws and hammers is not the same, so after this batch of waste is returned to the furnace and rebuilt, you still have to make saws.
However, he did not immediately start refining. Instead, he found a few broken saws and reprocessed two square wooden boxes, one large and one small, as accurate measuring tools.
The big wooden box is on the outside. When the time comes, put the reconciled yellow mud inside, and then press the small wooden box inside~
Simple and convenient~~
The final one is still the same size~~
Chen Chao was very satisfied with the two new molds he created. After enjoying them for a while, he gave them to the Pottery Department·Minister·One-Eyed, and asked him to take the two square boxes and burn a batch of molds. come out.
By the way, I brought people to make a batch of pottery pots and bowls. I recently joined so many people, and the tableware in the tribe is a bit insufficient.
As for why not use ceramic bowls as measuring tools...
emmmm...
This question is actually hard to explain...
Because every pot and bowl in the tribe is handmade, there are bound to be some big or small differences.
This also determines that it is difficult to find several identical pottery bowls among them, and it also determines that it is difficult for them to passively enter the peak of bowl life—that is, to upgrade as a mold.
And the fan/mold used now is all disposable. If you want to take out the things inside, you have to break the fan/mold wrapped around it, so it’s best to have a batch of things that can be repeated to make the mold.
The thing that Chen Chao chose to repeatedly make molds was wood.
But this time I can only find a way to get the mold of the measuring tool first, because a system boss never thought that he would fail before, so he didn't prepare something that can handle other wood molds—that is, a knife that is easy to cut wood.
And those axes and knives before...
Chen Chao thought about them? of? Weird?
In essence, it cannot be said to be a failure...
After all, this is my own world. I say they are axes, they are axes, and they are knives...
They are knives...
A certain system boss quietly comforted himself in his heart...
And secretly made up his mind, people, to do one thing, we must do our best...
So let’s make a knife first, and then come with a batch of authentic models/molds~
This time he was a one-time success~~
Isn’t it just round the hammer~~
Isn’t it just a little effort~~
What's so difficult about this!
Could it be hard to beat the boss of this system? ~~
As for the fan/mold of the bronze pot...
The most rewarding, most popular, bronze pot, since there is no problem, it is to use the latest two as a model/mold~~
By the way, let the people of the tribe see if there are any bigger leaves nearby, and put them on the bottom of the pot and in the pot at that time, so as not to unmold~~
No way to duck!
Beeswax has to wait until spring, summer and autumn to go out to collect, and it is not too difficult to find ducks now!
So~~
The lost wax method is still too difficult to do~~
The brains of a certain system boss is rapidly turning for the future of the Tiantian tribe, and because of the loss of the pottery department, the minister and the one-eyed, who has lost the blower, he still reluctantly looks at the two in front of him that can make the stone. A stove with golden flowers.
After turning around one step three times, in the end, in grief, he took the two square wooden blocks and two beloved bronze pots given by Chen Chao and returned to the pottery department.
With his subordinates, they reinvested in their own work-making pottery pots, pots and bowls, and molds.
And because a system boss wanted to upgrade himself to this skill, he had to stay in the ‘smelting field’.
The bronze scraps recovered before were re-fired, and then poured into the spare molds left over from the previous tooling, ready to start his first hand practice.
Fortunately, the molds I made before were all made of clay for making pottery, and they didn't use fire. They just put them aside and used them directly after they were dried in the shade.
Because of its simplicity and convenience, Chen Chao did a lot, and this time there are still a few hands left to practice, namely knives, axes, and saws.
The axe can't handle it, the ratio is different, and it's too wasteful.
Although the ratio of the knife is different from that of the saw, the difference is not very big, and it is mainly used as a test product for forging, so you can try it.
In addition, after inquiring (crossing out), a system leader learned that forging bronze is time-consuming and laborious, so many bronze products are castings.
However, since the cast product has not been beaten, the microstructure is not tight enough. In addition, a large number of pores will be generated during the casting process, which further damages the integrity of the structure.
Therefore, castings are mainly some handicrafts, sacrificial articles and daily necessities, which are not suitable for manufacturing weapons and other products with high physical performance requirements.
This is why the bronze pot can be used normally, and the more demanding knives, saws, and axes, the use of the effect will be visible to the naked eye.
In addition, even forged bronze is not perfect. Although adding tin can increase the hardness of bronze.
However, this increase in hardness comes at the cost of reduced toughness. Like glass, it is easily broken in severe collisions, which is a fatal flaw for armored weapons.
The armor skills on the development tree have not been lit yet, so I'm not so anxious to study.
However, the weapon is lighting up.
So when a certain system boss saw this section, he realized later that the damage to the bronze saw this time was most likely caused by man!
A system leader can think that the saws in the wood mill were definitely not broken by sawing wood.
But for some reason, the damage caused by the two saws colliding with each other slightly.
Otherwise, the wood that was sawed for a day yesterday, why didn't it break?
Why did it break without looking at it today?
As for the remaining one, it is estimated that the managers of the two lumber mills saw that the newly issued tools were accidentally broken, and felt that they could not explain it...
So the remaining good saw was also miserable and bad luck...
So in essence, the bronze saws that watched the sky were successful this time, and their damage was mainly due to man-made disasters...
After understanding the matter, Chen Chao began to forge bronze for the first time. After returning the previously recovered bronze saw to its essence, it was poured into the blade/mold of the knife.
Seeing the bronze in the fan/mold, a certain system boss suddenly got into trouble...
I know to be forged, but it...
How to exercise?
I waited for it to cool down before giving it a few hundred hammers?
Still like an iron sword? Want to forge while quenching?
Is it when it is cold or when it is hot or when it is warm?
Difficult...
The option of quenching was first ruled out by Chen Chao, because what he got back was tin bronze, not aluminum bronze, nor beryllium bronze.
And if you wait for it to cool down and hit it with a stone yourself, wouldn't it become a hard object hit, and it will break when you hit it?
So after some serious thinking about a system boss, his success was stuck on the question of how to forge a bronze knife.
I can’t fight when it’s cold, and I can’t get through the road of quenching...
It's really difficult...
After waiting for the copper liquid to solidify and cool, Chen Chao directly smashed the fan/mold on the outside and took out the bronze casting inside-the knife.
He looked at the bronze knife in his hand and tried to hammer lightly with the thick side of the stone axe, seeing the unexpected damage, he started to increase his strength.
The blower squad next to Chi and Zhong looked at their deputy leader curiously.
Since they started to burn the stones, everything the deputy leader did made them feel very strange. They felt that there was no way to understand what was in the mind of the deputy leader.
But after things were done, they were shocked by the results.
They didn't understand, they just rubbed the small wooden stick in their hands, how could the fire in the kiln get bigger and bigger.
They also don't understand, how can there be rocks that can burn out liquid? Can all rocks burn out water?
Then stir the water, and then pour it into the mud, it can turn into a stone of other colors.
What's more, these stones of other colors can become what they want.
