The book explores how woodworking has evolved over time and how it has influenced human culture and society. It also examines the relationship between humans and nature and how woodworking has affected this relationship. The Plot of Wood Magazine In the beginning, there was only one way to make things out of wood - by hand. Craftsmen would spend hours, days, weeks, even months carving, shaping, and constructing wooden objects using nothing more than their own two hands and simple tools. But as time passed, technology began to advance, and with it, so did the art of woodworking. The first power tools were invented, allowing craftsmen to work faster and more efficiently. The sawmill was born, making it possible to produce vast quantities of uniform lumber. And then, the computer age dawned, bringing with it CNC machines that could cut and shape wood with incredible precision. As technology advanced, so did the possibilities for what could be created with wood. From intricate furniture to towering buildings, wood became a versatile material that could be molded into anything imaginable.
