About Sushi Primary Function: Lingkuranan

Book Text: Ang Sushi usa ka lingkuranan nga gidesinyo alang sa mga panimalay ug uban pang mga sulod sa balay. Ang estruktura hinimo pinaagi sa kamot gikan sa halangdong kahoy ug giporma sa yano nga mga linya ug tin-aw nga mga geometriko nga anggulo. Ang mga bahin gihimo tagsa-tagsa ug gipapilit, sunod sa tradisyonal nga mga paagi sa pagpanday. Ang mga panapton nga adunay teksturado nagdala og kahupayan sa lingkoranan ug sa silindrikal nga sandiganan sa likod, samtang ang mga detalye sa tumbaga naghingpit sa piraso. Ang sandiganan sa likod gipahimutang sa paagi nga nagtugot nga mailisan ang panapton sa ulahi. Ang lingkuranan adunay gilapdon nga 520 mm, kalawmon nga 500 mm ug gitas-on nga 810 mm.
