The stone masons take their parts for the foundation work of the house.
The incessant work of ten of the carpenters for two months has so progressed that every pole and railing is properly planed and skillfully shaped, measured and holed so that each piece fits the other so as to complete the building or framing of the house. Here they are making the preparation for the building or framing work.
The building or framing work should be completed in a whole day. This is the most important day for the carpenters; for, has there been even the slightest error in measuring or making holes, the building work will become impossible.
The building or framing being almost constructed, they now have to carry the heaviest head pillars up above by using the pulley.
After hard labour taken by the carpenters and coolies, employed specially for the day of building, under an earnest management of the head carpenter, the building or framing work is completed at sunset. The celebration poles are made each bearing three fans indicating type of rising sun, fastened together and decorated with green leaves, five coloured hemp threads and white paper cut in the way indicating sacredness. And the carpenters carry them, making a procession together with the coolies singing songs celebrating the success. Then they stop first at the gate of the owner of the new building and leave there, one of the decorations, and the family gives them a feast and “sake” for the celebration.
