What can we learn from the story of Lu Ban inventing the saw?

From the story of Lu Ban's invention of the saw, we can get the following enlightenment: nothing is difficult in the world, only if you put your mind to it. Be good at observing the little things in life. A little thing, an experience, will be a valuable asset in life. Creativity comes from life, and every bit in life can constitute infinite creation.

The story content of Lu Ban's seesaw;

Once, Lu Ban and his disciples accepted the task of building a big palace. This project is very big and needs a lot of wood. He told his disciples to go up the mountain to cut down big trees. At that time, there were no saws, and with axes, not many trees could be cut down in one day. Wood was in short supply, and he was in a hurry, so he went up the mountain to have a look himself.

At that time, the mountain was so steep that it was difficult to climb it. Lu Ban slipped while he was not paying attention and quickly caught the grass growing beside him. Unexpectedly, his hand was cut by a leaf of a wild grass, and blood oozed out immediately. So he picked the leaves and observed them carefully. There are sharp teeth on both sides of the leaf. He scratched the back of his hand with these dense little teeth and actually cut another hole. It turned out that his hand was cut by these small teeth.

Looking at the small hole in the palm of his hand, Lu Ban was lost in thought. He thought, if you have such a toothed tool, you can also cut trees quickly. So, after many experiments, he finally invented a sharp saw, which was really useful, and quickly sawed off the tree, greatly improving the work efficiency. Later, Lu Ban named this newly invented tool "saw".

Life of Lu Ban:

Lu Ban was born in the Spring and Autumn Period. His surname was Ji, and his name was Gongbo, also known as Gongbozi, Gongbo and Gongbo. Because "Xiang" and "Ban" were homophonic in ancient times, people often called him Lu Ban.

Born in the 13th year of Zhou Dynasty (507 BC), he died in the 25th year of Zhou Zhenping (444 BC). He lived from the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the Warring States Period and was born in a craftsman's family for generations. He participated in many civil engineering jobs with his family since childhood, gradually mastered the skills of productive labor and accumulated rich practical experience.

After about 450 BC, he came to Chu from Lu to help Chu make weapons. He once built a ladder to attack the Song State of Chu. Mozi traveled thousands of miles from Lu to the capital of Chu, forcing the king of Chu to stop attacking Song.

Nowadays, hand tools used by carpenters, such as drilling, planing, shoveling, ruler and Mo Dou for marking, are said to have been invented by Lu Ban. Moreover, the invention of each tool is inspired by Luban's production practice, after repeated research and experiments.
