Contemporary Luban! How does Grandpa China, 63, practice mortise and tenon techniques?

Recently, after Li led China's pastoral culture to the world, the 63-year-old grandfather led China's mortise and tenon art to conquer foreign netizens again. The 63-year-old grandfather is a carpenter from Liaocheng, Shandong, and his name is Wang Dewen. This grandfather has been dealing with wood since he was a child, so he has gained a good skill and supported his family by carpentry. Now he still relies on superb skills to circle the powder of global netizens.

Grandpa Wang Dewen has a son who is a short video creator. With the help of his son, he filmed a video of his grandfather making a Luban stool. It was this video that made Grandpa appear in front of everyone and made Grandpa Wang Dewen angry. From then on, on the social platform, Grandpa got a lovely name? Grandpa A Mu? .

Skilled grandfathers can hand-build wooden products such as Luban stool, apple lock, arch bridge, general case and moving pig Peggy. What surprised foreign netizens most was that this old man could make ordinary wood into exquisite handicrafts without a nail or a drop of glue. He showed his skillful skills in the tubing video, and let netizens all over the world see the traditional mortise and tenon technology in China.

In fact, China's mortise and tenon technology is the main structural mode of ancient buildings, furniture and other appliances in China, and it is the connection mode in which concave and convex parts are combined on two components. The protruding part is called tenon (or tenon); The concave part is called mortise (or mortise). It is characterized by using mortises and tenons to reinforce objects without nails, which reflects the ancient culture and wisdom of China. In the Forbidden City in China, tenon and mortise architecture can be seen everywhere, which is a traditional carpenter's craft full of China's wisdom and has a history of more than 7,000 years. In modern times, it is unthinkable for us to complete a building without a nail. However, our ancestors passed on the tenon-mortise technology from generation to generation with their own craftsmanship, exquisite craftsmanship and experience, but it was ignored by the rapidly developing society. I hope that in the future, there will be more craftsmen like Grandpa Wang Dewen to inherit China's craft!
