Introduction
Research articles regarding the end result and final outcome of any project that involves the medium of wood, from the simple wood pallet, to the tall ships of the 19th century are welcome in this broad category. In other words, if wood is used in the product, or project, it can be researched and written about and entered into this category.
Welcome to the Works category. Create your research projects in this category for the final results of working the medium of wood. Articles in this category may have titles such as “The Seventeenth–Century William and Mary Styles” or perhaps a title may look like this “Furniture of the Andes” or simply “Rocking Chair”, and other project titles may be titled “Barrel” or “Chest of Drawers” and many more.
