4.A half role

When installing the Kamoi, the twist of the pillar is copied on the Kamoi wood, but at this time it is used to support the Kamoi wood. It consists of a U-shape and a right-angle triangle wood piece, and is used in two sets. Place the U-shaped half role around the pillar and place the triangle as a web in the gap and fix it. Place Kamoi wood on right angles made of pillars and wasabi. The same applies to the Kamoi stopper, fixing it to the pillar with the metal fittings and giving it a right angle.
