Friends in Show Places I am blessed to have been part of these early "real" Wood Shows, presenting in the company of world-class demonstrators, professionals, inventors and craftspeople, all in the presence of thousands of keen Show attendees. Over the next four years the Wood Show included some very special categories including "Off The Lathe" and "Australian Furniture Design Awards" I wasn't there to see these first shows as I was busy building my first house (for just $350!), planting 360 organic fruit trees, planting crops, building a shingle mill etc. … not mention helping to raise twin boys whom we didn't know we were having until a month before Noelene was due. FEATURES I feel very fortunate to have found a family of fellow woodworkers … folk who love or are passionate about designing and making things of wood. [Extracted from the article]

"Now this one", Fleming points to a long, sloping chunk of wood, "will be a bench, with a resin inlay and brushed steel legs, can't you just see it?" "It's so private where I get the wood", Fleming says. My back straightened right out!" Fleming is rangy, as you'd expect from someone who routinely wrestles large, heavy pieces of wood. And while many driftwood artists concentrate on smaller pieces-mirrors and such-Fleming works on a grand scale, crafting high-end furniture with an artistry that has gained him a following around the world.

The pin meter's ability to measure stacked lumber with multiple probes makes it more versatile, but the pinless meter works more quickly and without piercing the wood. Pin meters measure a wood's moisture by means of pins pushed into the wood, while pinless meters have a flat sensor on their back. High-end meters with Bluetooth can share this data with an app. • Avoid setting wood directly on the floor, especially on concrete, because the wood will take on moisture.

Uzukuri your way to a beautiful finish For some western woodworkers, anything short of several layers of nuclear-grade polyurethane is unworthy of being called a finish; uzukuri shiage is just this: a brushed and polished wood grain surface. Uzukuri on soft or hard woods Using the uzukuri finish on any species with a significant difference between its soft and hard grain will produce a pronounced 3D effect. While the results of uzukuri are much more dramatic on softwoods, the technique also works on hardwood. [Extracted from the article]

A recent study suggests that the Rapa Nui people of Easter Island may have independently invented their own written language, known as Rongorongo. The study found that one of the wooden objects containing Rongorongo inscriptions predates the arrival of Europeans, indicating that the language could have been created by the Rapa Nui themselves. The unique structure and function of Rongorongo also suggest that it is distinct from European languages, further supporting the theory of independent invention. However, further research is needed to examine the remaining tablets and fully understand the contributions of the Rapa Nui people. [Extracted from the article]

• Conductive MXene-wood sponge is obtained by coating wood sponge with MXene sheets. • The MXene-wood sponge sensor exhibits wide linear sensing ranges of 5–50% and 0–180°. • The compressible sponge sensor can monitor practical human physiological signals. • An all MXene-wood sponge sensing system is achieved for wearable devices. Although piezoresistive sensors have wide applications in human motion detection and wearable electronics, it is still a challenge to produce multifunctional and integrated sensors with wide working ranges and linear sensing responses. Herein, electrically conductive, highly compressible, and structurally anisotropic MXene-wood (MW) sponges are fabricated by converting balsa wood blocks to compressible wood sponges with extremely low density and highly anisotropic porous structure, followed by decorating with conductive MXene sheets. The MW sponge is utilized to assemble a piezoresistive sensor with a large working range of 0–25 kPa, wide linear sensing ranges of 5%–50% and 0–180°, and excellent long-term reliability under a bending angle of 30° for 5000 cycles. Additionally, the sensor is suitable for monitoring practical human physiological signals including pulse beating, and finger and wrist bending. An all-MW sponge-based multifunctional and integrated sensing system is constructed by integrating the MW sponge piezoresistive sensor, the MW sponge-based solid-state supercapacitor, and the MW sponge electrophysiological electrodes. The sensing system can concurrently detect surface electromyogram and tactile pressures, and hence realize real-time closed-loop controls. The multifunctional and integrated MW sponge sensing system would have great potentials in real-time pressure recognition and human-machine interfaces. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It was America's most expensive closed car (other than specialist limousine models) and its longest two-door, at 18ft 5in. Although 1950 marked the last year of the Chrysler straight-eights (before the overheadvalve V8s), it was the first year of turnkey starting, windscreen washers and a powerwindow option. It was also the last year of the true woodie Town and Country: from 1951 the name would be relegated to Chrysler's full-size steel-bodied station wagons, with not a splinter of wood - real or otherwise - to be seen. FEATURES Eighty-two years ago, Chrysler pioneered the concept of an upmarket "woodie" with its Town and Country wagons. [Extracted from the article]
