ʻO ke koho ʻana i ka lāʻau kūpono ʻole no kahi mea pāʻani hiki ke alakaʻi i nā mamala a me nā pōʻino palekana. Hiki i kēia ke hōʻino i ka inoa o kāu brand a hopena i nā hoʻomanaʻo nui, e hoʻohuli i kahi manaʻo maikaʻi i kuleana.
ʻO nā lāʻau maikaʻi loa no nā mea pāʻani he paʻakikī, ʻaʻole maʻalahi, a nā lāʻau ʻawaʻawa ʻole[^1] like me Maple, Beech, a me Birch. He lōʻihi kēia mau lāʻau, loaʻa ka paʻa maʻemaʻe, a hiki ke kū i ka pāʻani koʻikoʻi, e hōʻoiaʻiʻo ana he nani a palekana ka huahana hope no nā keiki.
Ua hoʻohana wau i kaʻu ʻoihana ma ka hana ʻana, ʻo ka hapa nui me nā mold a me nā plastics. Akā, ʻo nā loina koʻikoʻi e like mau, inā ʻoe e hoʻoinu i ka plastic a i ʻole ke kalai lāʻau. Aia nā mea a pau i ke koho ʻana i ka mea kūpono no ka hana. Ua hana au me nā hoa like e like me Woddlon ma nā papahana kūikawā, a ua ʻike mua au i ka hana ʻana a i ʻole ka wāwahi ʻana o nā mea waiwai i kahi huahana, ʻoi aku hoʻi no nā keiki. Pono ʻoe e noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ka palekana, ka lōʻihi, a me ke ʻano o ka hana o ka mea i ka wā hana nui[^2]. E hele kāua i koʻu hoʻokokoke ʻana i kēia, i hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i ke kelepona kūpono no kāu papahana aʻe.
ʻAʻole palekana nā lāʻau palupalu a pau no ka hana ʻana i nā mea pāʻani a nā keiki.He wahahee
ʻOiai ʻo ka nui o nā lāʻau palupalu e like me ka pine hiki ke ʻoki a maʻalahi maʻalahi, ʻo kekahi, e like me Poplar, palupalu akā he ʻano ʻano like ʻole a manaʻo ʻia he palekana ke hoʻopau pono. ʻO ke kī ʻo ka paʻakikī a me ka pale maʻalahi, ʻaʻole wale ka ʻāpana 'lāʻau palupalu' a i ʻole 'lāʻau paʻa.
ʻO ka lāʻau maple kekahi o nā lāʻau ʻoi loa o ka hale, e hoʻomau i ka lōʻihi no nā mea pāʻani.ʻOiaʻiʻo
Me ka helu paʻakikī o Janka ma kahi o 1,450 lbf, ʻokoʻa ke kūpaʻa ʻo Hard Maple i nā niho a me nā lole, ʻo ia ke kumu he koho maikaʻi loa ia no nā mea e like me nā poloka lāʻau, nā kaʻa, a me nā mea pāʻani ʻē aʻe e ʻike i ka hoʻohana kaumaha.
Pehea ʻoe e koho ai i ka lāʻau maikaʻi loa no kahi pāʻani lāʻau maʻamau?
ʻO ka hoʻolālā ʻana i kahi mea pāʻani maʻamau hoʻokahi o ke ʻano he mea hoihoi, akā koʻikoʻi kāu koho waiwai. Hiki i kahi koho maikaʻi ʻole ke hoʻohaʻahaʻa i kahi hoʻolālā maikaʻi loa, e alakaʻi ana i kahi huahana e haki a ʻoluʻolu paha.
No kahi mea pāʻani maʻamau, pono ʻoe e hoʻokumu i ka palekana a me ka lōʻihi ma mua o nā mea āpau. ʻO ka lāʻau maikaʻi loa he lāʻau paʻa ʻole ʻaʻole e māmala, ʻaʻohe mea ʻawaʻawa, a hiki ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ke one i ka pau ʻana. ʻO Maple a me Beech kaʻu mau ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo no kēia mau kumu.
Ke hele mai ka mea kūʻai mai iaʻu me kahi hoʻolālā pāʻani kūʻokoʻa, wāwahi mākou i ke kaʻina koho lāʻau i ʻekolu mau wahi nui. ʻAʻole ia e pili ana i ka mea maikaʻi; e pili ana i ka hana maikaʻi loa a mālama pono i nā keiki. Hoʻomanaʻo wau i kahi papahana no kahi pūʻulu o nā poloka alphabet maʻamau. Ke hilinaʻi nei ka mea kūʻai i kahi lāʻau ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi e mālama ai i nā kumukūʻai mua. Ua hōʻike aku au iā lākou i kahi laʻana o kēlā lāʻau e pili ana i kahi ʻāpana maple paʻa. Ua maopopo ka ʻokoʻa o ke kaumaha, ka manaʻo, a me ka pau ʻana. Ua kūkākūkā mākou pehea e pale ai ka maple i nā niho mai ka hoʻolei ʻia ʻana a ʻaʻole hiki ke maʻalahi. Ua ʻae lākou i ka maple, a ʻo ka huahana hope he lanakila nui i hala i kēlā me kēia palapala hōʻoia palekana[^3] me ka maʻalahi.
Nā mea nui no nā mea pāʻani maʻamau
Eia pehea mākou e loiloi ai i nā koho:
- Palekana: Pono ʻole ka lāʻau i mea ʻona. E hōʻalo i nā lāʻau e hiki ai ke hoʻoulu i ka maʻi maʻi a i ʻole i loko o nā toxins kūlohelohe. Pono nō hoʻi e maʻalahi. ʻO ka palekana o ke keiki ka helu ʻekahi.
- Ka lōʻihi: Manaʻo pinepine ʻia nā mea pāʻani maʻamau no nā makahiki. Pono ka lāʻau e paʻakikī e pale aku i nā niho, nā ʻōpala, a me ka haki ʻana mai nā kulu a me ka pāʻani ʻino. ʻO kēia kahi o ka ʻO ka paʻakikī paʻakikī Janka[^4] he alakai pono.
- Hoʻopau a manaʻo: Pono ka lāʻau i ke one a hiki i ka lole silika-māmā i mea palekana no nā lima liʻiliʻi. ʻO ke ʻano o ka palaoa a me ka waihoʻoluʻu e kōkua pū i ka nānā a me ka manaʻo hope o ka mea pāʻani, he ʻāpana nui ia o ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana o kahi huahana maʻamau.
Eia kahi papa maʻalahi e hoʻohālikelike i kekahi mau koho maʻamau:
| ʻAno lāʻau | Palekana (Splinter Risk) | Paʻa (Janka Hardness) | Hoʻopau maikaʻi | Pono No |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maple | Haahaa Loa | Kiʻekiʻe (1450 lbf) | Maikaʻi | Nā poloka, nā kaʻa, nā mea pāʻani niho, nā puʻupuʻu |
| Beech | Haahaa Loa | Kiʻekiʻe (1300 lbf) | Maikaʻi | ʻO nā poloka kūkulu, nā kiʻi, nā rattles |
| Birch | Haʻahaʻa | Mawaena (1260 lbf) | Maikaʻi loa | Nā puzzles, nā mea pāʻani pena liʻiliʻi |
| Pine | Kiʻekiʻe | Haʻahaʻa (380 lbf) | Pono | ʻAʻole ʻōlelo ʻia no nā mea pāʻani i pena ʻole ʻia |
| ʻOka | Kauwaena (Porous) | Kiʻekiʻe (1360 lbf) | Maikaʻi loa | ʻAʻole kūpono ma muli o nā pores nui |
He koho maikaʻi ʻo ʻOak no nā mea pāʻani no ka mea he lāʻau paʻa.He wahahee
ʻOiai paʻa loa a paʻa loa ka ʻOak, hiki i kāna hua nui a hāmama (pores) ke pahele i ka lepo a me ka maʻi bacteria, no laila ʻaʻole kūpono ia no nā mea pāʻani a nā keiki e hoʻokomo i ko lākou waha. ʻOi aku ka maʻemaʻe o nā lāʻau me ka palaoa paʻa a paʻa e like me ka Maple.
He anti-bacterial maoli ka laau beech.ʻOiaʻiʻo
Ua hōʻike ʻia nā haʻawina ʻo ka lāʻau, me ka Beech, he mau waiwai antimicrobial kūlohelohe e hiki ke pepehi i ka maʻi bacteria ma kona ʻili, e lilo ia i koho maikaʻi loa a maʻemaʻe no nā mea pāʻani a nā keiki.
Pehea ʻoe e koho ai i ka lāʻau no ka hana nui?
ʻO ka neʻe ʻana mai kahi prototype hoʻokahi i nā tausani o nā ʻāpana e hoʻololi i nā mea āpau. Hiki koke, lilo ke kumu kūʻai, ka paʻa, a me ka machinability e like me ka mea nui o ka waiwai kino o ka lāʻau. Pono ʻoe i kahi hoʻolālā.
No ka hana nui, pono ʻoe i kahi lāʻau ʻaʻole palekana a paʻa wale nō akā hiki ke loaʻa, uku-pono, a maʻalahi hoʻi i ka mīkini. Mālama kēia kaulike e hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻonui i ka hana me ka ʻole o ka ʻai ʻana i ka maikaʻi a i ʻole ka haki ʻana i ka waihona kālā. Paʻa pinepine ʻo Birch a me Beech i kēia wahi momona.
Ke hana ʻoe i mau tausani o kekahi mea, hana nā kikoʻī liʻiliʻi i nā pilikia nui. E like me ka ʻike ʻana o ka mea hoʻolālā huahana e like me Jacky, ʻo ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka hana nui he pāʻani ʻokoʻa. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke koho wale i ka lāʻau nani loa. Pono ʻoe e noʻonoʻo e like me ka luna hale hana. Loaʻa ka lāʻau i nā nui aʻu e pono ai, a puni ka makahiki? Kūlike anei ka maikaʻi mai kekahi pūʻulu a i kekahi? Pehea ka wikiwiki e hoʻopau ai kēia wahie i kaʻu mau ʻāpana CNC a me nā mea hana ʻē aʻe? He mea koʻikoʻi ka pane ʻana i kēia mau nīnau. No nā mea pāʻani mākeke nui, ʻike pinepine au i nā mea hana e hoʻohana ana i ka Birch. He kuʻikahi maikaʻi. He paʻakikī, hoʻopau maikaʻi, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi ma mua o ka Maple, a loaʻa ākea mai nā kumu hoʻomau.
Hoʻohālikelike i ke kumukūʻai, lako, a me ka mīkini
Eia pehea e noʻonoʻo ai i ka lāʻau no ka hana nui:
- Uku a me ka loaʻa: Pono ʻoe i kahi lāʻau i kūpono i kāu kālā a hiki ke hoʻohana pono ʻia i nā puke nui. E ʻimi i nā lāʻau me nā kaulahao lako paʻa. ʻO ka palapala hōʻoia FSC a i ʻole PEFC kahi mea nui no ka mākeke.
- Kūlike: Pono ke ʻano o ka mea. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa i nā ʻano like ʻole o ka waihoʻoluʻu, ka palaoa, a i ʻole ka mānoanoa mai kahi hoʻouna a i kekahi, no ka mea e pili ana kēia i ke ʻano o ka huahana hope a me ke kaʻina hana.
- Mīkini: Pehea ka hana o ka laau me na mea hana hana? ʻO ke koho maikaʻi e ʻoki maʻemaʻe, koi liʻiliʻi i ke one, a ʻaʻole e hoʻokau nui i nā ʻili a me nā ʻāpana. Hoʻopili pololei kēia i ka wikiwiki o ka hana a me ke kumukūʻai.
Hoʻokaʻawale kēia papa i nā manaʻo hana:
| ʻAno lāʻau | Ma kahi o. Koina | Loaʻa honua | Mīkini (CNC) | ʻOi aku no ka hana nui? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maple | Kiʻekiʻe | Maikaʻi loa | Maikaʻi | ʻAe, no nā mea pāʻani premium/kiʻekiʻe. |
| Beech | Kauwaena-Kiʻekiʻe | Maikaʻi (Europa) | Maikaʻi | ʻAe, he koho maikaʻi loa a puni. |
| Birch | Kauwaena | Maikaʻi | Maikaʻi loa | ʻAe, maikaʻi ke kaulike o ke kumu kūʻai/ka maikaʻi. |

ʻO Rubberwood kahi lāʻau maikaʻi ʻole mai nā kaʻa kahiko.He wahahee
ʻO Rubberwood kahi lāʻau paʻa kiʻekiʻe a pili i ka kaiaola. ʻOhi ʻia ia mai nā lāʻau lapaʻau i hoʻopau i kā lākou hana ʻana i ka latex, e lilo ia i mea hoʻomau mau o ka ʻoihana ʻōpala. ʻAʻole pili i nā kaʻa kaʻa.
ʻO ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka lāʻau lāʻau Birch he ala maikaʻi e mālama ai i ke kumukūʻai no nā mea pāʻani pālahalaha e like me nā puʻupuʻu.ʻOiaʻiʻo
He ikaika, kūpaʻa, a emi ke kumukūʻai ma mua o ka lāʻau paʻa paʻa. He kūpono ia no nā mea e like me nā puʻupuʻu a me nā pūʻulu pāʻani, no ka mea ke kūʻē nei i ka warping a hiki ke ʻoki pololei ʻia me nā lasers a i ʻole nā mīkini CNC.
Ka hopena
ʻO ke koho ʻana i ka lāʻau kūpono ke kī i kahi pāʻani kūleʻa. No nā ʻāpana maʻamau, e hoʻokahua i ka palekana a me ka manaʻo me Maple a i ʻole Beech. No ka hana nui, ke kumukūʻai kaulike a me ka machinability me Birch a i ʻole Rubberwood.
