…..Little Moreton Hall (N/Trust), an amazing Tudor building in Cheshire that is well worth visiting - it twists & leans in every direction but still stands firm..….. Alan:-)

In 1913, the 'Dutch Society to making works in Reinforced Concrete' ("Hollandsche Maatschappij tot het Maken van Werken in Gewapend Beton" (HBM)) designed and built this carpentry factory fot Shipyard De Schelde.
It has been restored, and turned into a nice hotel.

"Ouch!", said the pencil as mad as could be
Some naughty school child is chewing on me
"Y'all", said the pencil, (he came from the south)
You NEVER should put me inside of your mouth.
I often am dirty, I fall on the floor,
I'm probably covered in germs, and what's more,
Your teeth are for chewing, that's easy to see.
But use them at mealtime and NOT ON POOR ME!!
In a nutshell, what I learned in first grade. =)
Mandvi (Inde) - Cette partie du chantier n’est accessible qu’à marée basse, si on ne dispose pas d’une embarcation.
Ce boutre sur la photo est très avancé dans sa construction. La coque est terminée. C’est la raison pour laquelle il y a quelques mois, il a été remorqué à marée haute à l’entrée du chenal. Il ne craint plus l’eau. Comme on peut le distinguer sur cette photo, les ouvriers s’affairent désormais sur le pont supérieur, les pieds bien au sec. D’autres travaillent dans la cale.
Pour la construction de ces navires marchands, propulsés par des moteurs diesel japonais, l’Inde a longtemps utilisé le tek. Lorsque l’importation de cette essence précieuse a été interdite et que son prix a fortement été revu à la hausse, les chantiers se sont rabattus sur le bois de « sal » (ou sala). Un bois très dense et imputrescible, importé du Sud-Est Asiatique et plus particulièrement d’Indonésie.
Ce bois provient d’un résineux qui atteint 30 à 35 mètres de haut lorsqu’il est parvenu au maximum de sa croissance. Il présente un grain grossier qui n’autorise pas un ponçage efficace, de sorte qu’il est inadapté aux travaux de menuiserie. Il est donc utilisé comme bois de charpente dans la construction navale. Sur certaines unités en construction on peut voir que du bois récupéré sur des bateaux voués à la casse a été recyclés par mesure d’économie.
Tout est utilisé dans le « sal », notamment son fruit et ses graines transformés en huile pour les lampes. Il n’est pas rare qu’aujourd’hui encore dans les familles les plus pauvres, on s’éclaire toujours à la lampe à huile ou à la bougie. Quant à sa résine particulièrement odorante, elle est recyclée en encens pour les cérémonies religieuses hindoues.
Sur la photo ci-dessus, j'ai choisi d'intégrer un premier plan avec ce bateau destiné à la récupération des matériaux. Ce qui a l'avantage de remplir et fermer le cadre inférieur.
Pour obtenir cette vue plongeante je suis monté sur la passerelle d’un autre navire en construction.
Sal wood for the Indian dhows
Mandvi (India) - This part of the site is only accessible at low tide, if you do not have a boat.
This dhow in the photo is very advanced in its construction. The hull is finished. This is the reason why a few months ago it was towed to the entrance of the channel. It no longer fears water. As can be seen in this photo, the workers are now busy on the upper deck, their feet dry. Others are working in the hold.
For the construction of these merchant ships, powered by Japanese diesel engines, India has long used teak. But when the importation of this precious species was banned and its price was revised upwards, the shipyards fell back on “sal” (or sala) wood. A very dense and rot-proof wood, imported from Southeast Asia and more particularly from Indonesia.
This wood comes from a softwood that reaches 30 to 35 meters in height when it has reached its maximum growth. It has a coarse grain that does not allow for efficient sanding, so it is unsuitable for carpentry work. It is therefore essentially used as structural timber in shipbuilding. On some units under construction, we can see that wood salvaged from scrapped boats has been recycled to save money.
Everything is used in the "sal", especially its fruit and its seeds which are transformed into oil for the lamps. It is not rare that today still in the poorest families, one always lights with the oil lamp or the candle. As for its particularly fragrant resin, it is recycled into incense for Hindu religious ceremonies.
In the photo above, I chose to include a foreground with this boat intended for the recovery of materials. Which has the advantage of filling and closing the lower frame.

Taken by Bulldog 1, she is documenting the building for Joe, he is the young carpenter that works with me during the summer months. We are lifting a section of the ten foot outside wall. I am the one on the extreme left that is cut in half. The summer months are going to be really hectic for me so I may not be able to flickr some days. I hope you will understand but will try to catch up on weekends and early mornings, by evening I am usually shot.

This moc is my entry for eurobricks/ Mitgardia/ AoM challenge for Mills Category phase 2
========================
At the Winter Lakes, at the south part of Mitgardia where the Ancler river ends, there is a new carpentry.
Mitgardians living around the lake bring their wood there also with boats.
this business establishment at the sidewalk purchases used wooden pallets and reuses them for custom furniture
working tools for a carpenter, and who will make the building and furniture by the wooden materials, maybe or not ?
