How do you make an abacus?

Answer 1

To make an abacus, the first thing to do is to make a frame, the wooden edge around an abacus. Then add the separator, the wooden line about 1/3 at the top and 2/3 at the bottom. And then start making the coloum for the beads. Your abacus will then look excactly like this original Chinese abacus picture:Frame: the wooden edges around an abacus

Separator: the wooden line that stretches from the left to the right side of the abacus which separates the top and bottom part of the abacus

Coloumns: the thin wooden sticks which holds the beads

Beads: The rounded wood for counting
