for Wood
Compressed Cold-bend hardwood (http://www.puretimber.com/cold-bend-hardwood/) allows woodworkers to bend wood without using steam or glued-up laminations. This pre-compressed wood can be used to impressive effect in wood sculpture, furniture making, architecture, etc. Students will be introduced to the work of artists, furniture makers, instrument makers and architects working with compressed wood and will have the opportunity to experiment with manipulating the wood themselves.
