Wood is an organic material, a natural composite of cellulose fibers (which are strong in tension) embedded in a matrix of lignin which resists compression. In the strict sense wood is produced as secondary xylem in the stems of trees (and other woody plants). In a living tree it transfers water and nutrients to the leaves and other growing tissues, and has a support function, enabling woody plants to reach large sizes or to stand up for themselves. Wood may also refer to other plant materials with comparable properties, and to material engineered from wood, or wood chips or fiber.

People have used wood for millennia for many purposes, primarily as a fuel or as a construction material for making houses, tools, weapons, furniture, packaging, artworks, and paper. Wood can be dated by carbon dating and in some species by dendrochronology to make inferences about when a wooden object was created. The year-to-year variation in tree-ring widths and isotopic abundances gives clues to the prevailing climate at that time.

A. Start with a strip of tape along the bottom of the blade about 1.5 inches from each end. Fold the edges over onto the front and back of the blade. Press this tape down with a puck on the 3 sides and the 2 corners. Next start taping the stick from heel to toe. Put about 1/2" of tape on the top of the blade on one side. Do a complete wrap back over the 1/2" piece and then start down the blade towards the toe. Have the wraps start and end about 1/4" over-laping the piece on the bottom of the blade. Overlap the tape about 1/4" on each wrap. When you get to the end, make sure you tear the tape at the top and have a 1/2" piece on one side just like how you started. The key to a good tape job is how tight you apply the tape. Put your top two… [cont.]

What is the best way to clean a wooden spoon?

A. Scrub it good with a kitchen scrubber, rinse it well in hot water. Don't use steel wool as bits can come off and get embedded in the grain of the wood. I use an old-fashioned copper Chore Girl to clean my wooden spoons, they still sell them in the grocery stores. Wiping them with mineral oil after they are dry helps to preserve them.
