Thank you Old Dojo! See you all at the new Dojo. Once the sleepers are evenly placed at a interval of 1 feet, and then the Plywood is placed on top, then the 3rd layer of wood is placed. This is the final and top layer of hardwood. This wood was imported from Canada, which is supposed to have the best Canadian Maple. The hard wood is placed freely on top pf the plywood, to see the pattern of the wood grain, and also to see how it will look. I can now start picturing how the Dojo will look. They start from the Center of the Dojo, and move outwards. Once the vinyl sheet is placed, then the sleeper plywood is placed over the sheet 1 feet apart. Then the plywood is stapled on to the sleeper. The sleeper is free over the concrete. Now most of the materials for the Dojo Floor has arrived. Our Dojo floor has 4 layers in total. I will be post every work done step-by-step form now. This is the wall that separates the Dojo and the warehouse. Now that the wall is up, the space feels smaller…
The Karate Dojo was easy to setup. It took them a couple of hours to clean and place the Karate Mats. This is temporary, but they can start practicing here from tonight. We use out own product: Before we place the Dojo floor, we fixed some concrete areas which was not even. We took the opportunity to sign our names while the concrete was still fresh. Our names will be there as long as I have the Dojo here.
Also the Dojo Architect, Tony Kuo-san. |
