* It's a practise form for 真台子. 
   * The feeling should be more formal than 平手前, according to 櫻井先生. Elegance and simplicity!
   * Only used if room is 4.5 畳 or larger.
   * 72.7 × 30.3 × 1.2 for 炉, 84.8 × 36.4 × 1.8 for 風炉.
   * 総荘（そう　かざり）: Complete display, often with 皆具（かいぐ）; 二つ置き (水差し and 釜 in 風炉), and 一つ置き (水差し only in 炉). The last two are basically 平手前.
   * Special 飾火箸 and special さしとし茶杓 is used if there's a 杓立.

<WRAP INFO>
   * Never do かまえ in 濃茶 with the 柄杓, always open the lid individually!
</WRAP>

====Generally====
   * For 風炉 炭 and 水次（風炉 and 炉）, walk to the right side of the 長板.
   * When taking things from or returning them to the 灼立て（しゃく　たて）, both hands on the 畳 in front of the 長板. So when you move the 蓋置き, which is not the 灼立て, the other hand remains on the lap. But when you pick up the 火箸 from the 畳, R goes to the floor.


====風炉　薄茶 and 濃茶 (CQ75, 76)====

^  薄茶  ^  濃茶  ^
| Bow at door. Carry in 棗 + 茶碗, leaving the door open, sit in the middle; but place them on the side in front of the 水差し. | Don't bow, wait with 茶碗 in front of you, close the door, sit in the middle, rehold 茶碗 and place it left with L; move 茶入 and R, L, R 茶碗 |
| **Set Up** : take 建水 with both hands, take 火箸 (fingertips on 畳). \\ Take 火箸: fingertips on 畳, they go out at 12 o'clock, wander to 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock and then around the phantom 建水. Hold with L at the middle, bring them parallel to legs, rehold with R, slide L to the end and with R on the 畳, put them about 5 cm peeking out from the 長板 on the 畳 (//as far as your hands will comfortably allow//) \\ take out ふたおき (R, L R) (slightly more in front than where it was in the 建水) ||
| move 建水, and pause | bow, then move 建水 and pause |
|  茶碗 (R, L, R)  ||
| 棗 | 茶入れ, 仕覆（しふく）goes with L where normally the 蓋置 would stand (flip towards L, so knot faces guests) |
|  茶杓, 茶筅  ||
| 茶碗 to the front. Get 柄杓 (right, then straight), lid, 茶巾 \\ If 帛紗 is needed, put it to the right of the knee and put in into sash after lid was placed on 蓋置, then 茶巾 | 水差し lid if lacquered, then move 茶碗 and put 茶巾 on lid, then 柄杓 \\ If 帛紗 is needed, take the lid, then put it behind 建水 |　
| //If 帛紗 is needed to open 釜葢, put it to the right of the right knee; otherwise, tuck it into sash.// |
|  //柄杓 leaves 灼立て at 3 o'clock, and comes to you in a straight line (R of phantom 水差し)//  ||
|  tea as usual, remember: after scooping tea, open 水差し (R, L, R) and for 濃茶, add one ladle of cold water  |
| Can I use 古帛紗 for 薄茶? | If the bowl is not 楽, use 古帛紗 |
| If 帛紗 still out, take it at the first guest's first sip  | Ask about tea, then shift 45°, after last guest's last sip, shift back, cold water, 帛紗 if it's still out |
| Ask if they want more, otherwise bow and close  | Bow when 茶碗 is returned, then //oshimai// after hot water rinse. |
|  cold water rinsing and cleaning of 茶筅, 茶巾, 茶杓 (+ 建水）  ||
|  Close 本仕舞い（ほん　じ　まい）(in front of 水差し); first R for tea container, then 茶碗 R, L, R  ||
| Cold water, 湯返し（ゆ　がえし）, lid, 柄杓 | cold water, 湯返し, 柄杓, lid! |
|  水差し  ||
| **拝見**: Move 蓋置き onto 長板 (R, L, R). In 平手前, this would be moving the 蓋置 behind the 建水 (this time, put it where it was in the 建水). Then, put 火箸 back, also. Since 茶碗 is right of the center line, move it with 3 hands (R, L, R; otherwise it's directly with R)  ||
|  //拝見 as usual//  ||
| take out 建水 and 茶碗 | take out both, put 建水 in front of you when opening the door |
|  水次（つぎ）: Open lid with R, L  ||
| Wait with cleaned 建水, sitting in 茶道口 with the 建水 in front of you, until guests have finished 拝見. Sit in front of 長板, 建水 in front of you, and put 蓋置 in. Then, 建水 onto 長板 with both hands. | Bring refreshed 建水 immediately after 水次, then close the door for 拝見 |
|  //Ciao!//  ||


====炉 薄茶 + 濃茶 (CQ81)====
   * Uses a smaller 長板, with 茶入 waiting in the middle.
   * Facing outer 炉 edge (normal 濃茶 is inner edge)
   * Remember to turn 仕覆（しふく）towards the fire!
   * Since it is usually done with a 皆具（かいぐ）set, no wiping of the 水差し lid.
   * Still 3 hands to open it, though; even though standard 炉 濃茶 uses 2!

===炉 濃茶===
   * Bow after putting out the 蓋置 (since the 柄杓 is not out yet).
   * After opening the 釜, shift to 長板 to get out the 柄杓; pour water and shift back to put it back into　灼立て; and then again to make tea. During this time, though, the 柄杓 rests on the 釜.
       * Then put it back, after the first guest took the first sip.
   * Then, after the conversation, you build up everything again (蓋置, 釜蓋 with 茶巾 on it, and 柄杓 resting on 釜).

===炉 薄茶===
   * After unloading the 茶碗 and moving it closer, turn to pick up 柄杓, open lid, move 茶巾 and then rest 柄杓 on 釜
   * After closing and having moved 茶碗 fully packed in front of the 長板, turn towards it holding 柄杓 in the L, then change hands and put it back. Then turn 45°, and close 水指 lid.
         * This moving with 柄杓 in L never happens in 濃茶, because we'd move the 柄杓 first, and then close the lid.

====炭 (風炉 CQ77, CQ78)====
   * Even though it's like 棚, there's no shelf for 羽 and 香合, so they are brought in with the 炭斗.
   * Because 火箸 are in the 灼立て, the 感 are in the 炭斗 resting against the 胴炭 with the open side down (like in 後炭).
   * 火箸 never touch the floor (re-hold)
   * Final cleaning of the 火箸
   * For 後炭, a 片口（かたくち）水次 is used
