Bird's eye figure
Bird's eye is a type of figure that occurs within several kinds of wood, most notably hard maple. Wood grain and Bird's eye figure are wood.
See Wood grain and Bird's eye figure
Burl
A burl (American English) or burr (British English) is a tree growth in which the grain has grown in a deformed manner. Wood grain and burl are wood.
Dendrochronology
Dendrochronology (or tree-ring dating) is the scientific method of dating tree rings (also called growth rings) to the exact year they were formed in a tree.
See Wood grain and Dendrochronology
Figure (wood)
In wood, figure refers to the appearance of wood, as seen on a longitudinal surface (side-grain). Wood grain and figure (wood) are wood.
See Wood grain and Figure (wood)
Flame maple
Flame maple (tiger maple), also known as flamed maple, curly maple, ripple maple, fiddleback or tiger stripe, is a feature of maple in which the growth of the wood fibers is distorted in an undulating chatoyant pattern, producing wavy lines known as "flames". Wood grain and flame maple are wood.
See Wood grain and Flame maple
Flat sawing
Flat sawing, flitch sawing or plain sawing is a woodworking process that produces flat-cut or plain-cut boards of lumber. Wood grain and flat sawing are woodworking.
See Wood grain and Flat sawing
Grain filler
A grain filler (pore filler or paste wood filler) is a woodworking product that is used to achieve a smooth-textured wood finish by filling pores in the wood grain.
See Wood grain and Grain filler
Graining
Graining is the practice of imitating wood grain on a non-wood surface, or on relatively undesirable wood surface, in order to give it the appearance of a rare or higher quality wood, thereby increase that surface's aesthetic appeal.
Joinery
Joinery is a part of woodworking that involves joining pieces of wood, engineered lumber, or synthetic substitutes (such as laminate), to produce more complex items. Wood grain and Joinery are woodworking.
Knee (construction)
In woodworking, a knee is a natural or cut curved piece of wood. Wood grain and knee (construction) are woodworking.
See Wood grain and Knee (construction)
Quarter sawing
Quarter sawing or quartersawing is a woodworking process that produces quarter-sawn or quarter-cut boards in the rip cutting of logs into lumber. Wood grain and quarter sawing are woodworking.
See Wood grain and Quarter sawing
Quilt maple
Quilt or quilted maple refers to a type of figure in maple wood. Wood grain and quilt maple are wood.
See Wood grain and Quilt maple
R. Bruce Hoadley
Robert Bruce Hoadley (1933 – October 15, 2019) was Professor Emeritus of Building and Construction Materials in the Department of Environmental Conservation at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
See Wood grain and R. Bruce Hoadley
Rift sawing
Rift sawing is a woodworking process that aims to produce lumber that is less vulnerable to distortion than flat-sawn lumber. Wood grain and Rift sawing are woodworking.
See Wood grain and Rift sawing
Stress (mechanics)
In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that describes forces present during deformation.
See Wood grain and Stress (mechanics)
Wood
Wood is a structural tissue found in the stems and roots of trees and other woody plants. Wood grain and wood are woodworking.
Wood finishing
Wood finishing refers to the process of refining or protecting a wooden surface, especially in the production of furniture where typically it represents between 5 and 30% of manufacturing costs. Wood grain and wood finishing are woodworking.
See Wood grain and Wood finishing
Wood warping
Wood warping is a deviation from flatness in timber as a result of internal residual stress caused by uneven shrinkage. Wood grain and Wood warping are woodworking.
See Wood grain and Wood warping
Woodworking
Woodworking is the skill of making items from wood, and includes cabinetry, furniture making, wood carving, joinery, carpentry, and woodturning. Wood grain and Woodworking are wood.
See Wood grain and Woodworking
