Manufacturing method and steps of folding fan
The manufacturing methods of folding fans include selecting materials, sawing, splitting, boiling, drying, pulling bones, baking, drilling, modeling, grinding, polishing, nailing and assembling.

1, material selection

Most people want to choose bamboo and wood. The choice of material depends on whether the size of this material is enough and whether it is suitable for processing into folding fans. Some wood is fluid and easy to deform, so it is not suitable for folding fans. Bamboo needs sawing and chopping, and wood needs cutting.

2. Boil and dry

Bamboo needs to be cooked, dried after cooking, and wood doesn't need to be cooked. Both wood and bamboo need to be dried for a period of time, and wood needs to be stored for a longer time to prevent deformation. Of course, wood with stable characteristics can shorten the time, which is why it takes almost a month to customize folding fans.

Step 3 pull small bones

After everything is handled, the next step is to pull out the small bone, that is, put the bamboo material on the shaping knife and pull out the small bone by hand. The big bone is also drawn out in the approximate shape on the shaping knife first. Generally, the lateral bone is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a thickness of about 4 mm, while the small bone is narrow at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a thickness of about 2 mm. It is baked with fire, and the lateral bone is baked with fire to make it plastic, making it a micro-arc type with two small ends and one middle.

4, drilling

Then drill holes in large and small bones. Drill holes in the middle line of the tail of the fan bone with tools such as pillar, drill bit or drilling knife. The position of the hole on each fan bone should be consistent, and the diameter of the hole should be determined according to the thickness of the fan nail. After drilling the hole, the big bone is carefully shaped into the shape of the head and shoulders, and the small bone is slightly thinner than the shoulders.

Step 5 amend

After everything is done, first polish the big bones and small bones, and sandpaper from coarse to fine. Some good sandpapers are better than traditional water mills. After the sandpaper is polished, it needs to be polished on the polishing machine at last, and some paraffin wax needs to be added properly when polishing.

Step 6 iron your nails

After all the work was finished, the nail was finally nailed. Corner nails are the eyes of folding fans. A good folding fan and a good fan nail are also equivalent to the finishing touch.

Finally, there is one more thing to say. Only bamboo needs to be equipped with plastic knives, and wood does not need plastic knives. Wood is cut with a cutting saw, and big bones are molded with pounds. Whether or not a plastic knife is installed, it is a test of the level of fan makers.

Step 7 combine

The last step is to combine the fan bone with the fan nail, so that the skeleton of the paper folding fan is completed. Of course, in order to be beautiful and increase the artistic value of the fan bones, craftsmen will also carve, inlay and hollow out the fan bones to make them more exquisite and beautiful.
