It's true that many pieces have a similar look about them, but the trained eye looks beyond that in judging the worth of a piece - Chinese antique furniture([http://www.chaosantiques.com/ Chinese antique furniture]
) should be judged by the workmanship involved in its origin creation, and its design([http://www.chaosantiques.com/ chinese antique]).

Carpenters were constrained by the rules and convention dictated in the "lu ban jin" (the classic manual for carpentry, as well as architecture). Their challenge was to create a piece using the manual, but yet distinguishable by his own personal trademarks using styles of the times.

The original construction of pieces did not include nails or pins - carpenters used different forms of tongues, groves, or mortise and tenon constructions - complete restoration is possible without causing any damage to the wood.

Most of the furniture([http://www.chaosantiques.com/ Oriental furniture]) we find has been in use for well over one hundred years without any regular maintenance or restoration. If a piece is restored without using the proper tools and techniques, the patina (the natural texture and graininess of wood that evolves naturally through years of use) of the wood can be destroyed.

== Set up your Neuros OSD to your Network ==
We will begin by ensuring your Neuros OSD and PC are connected correctly. Most users will set up their OSD using a home router (wired or wireless) as follows.

Connect your OSD's LAN port to one of your Home router's LAN ports with a standard Ethernet cable. Unplug and then re-plug your OSD to reboot it. When it finishes booting, bring up the menu and navigate to '''Settings''', then '''Network'''. If you do not see a suitable IP address in '''IP Address''', you will need to configure a fixed, static IP address. In this case, press the right arrow and choose '''Specify a static IP address (advanced)'''. Please consult your Home router's manual for more information on your local settings.
