Why do ink sticks look like soap? At present, there are two kinds of ink blocks: round bars and soap shapes, most of which are soap shapes.
Grinding ink should be light and slow, keep the ink straight and circle vertically on the inkstone. Don't grind it diagonally or push it straight. It is better to use less water for grinding ink than to use more water. If it is thickened, add water to thicken it. Use clean water to grind ink, not tea or hot water. The ink should be ground moderately, neither too thick nor too light. After grinding, put the ink in the box to avoid cracking. It takes a long time to grind ink. In order to avoid fatigue of the right hand, it is best to practice polishing with the left hand.
