"This very much applies to plywood. Although I own quite a bit of furniture, actually made of planks of wood, which has lasted for an extremely long time."
Woodworker here... that's less to do with the material and more to do with how it was assembled.
- constantcrying 1y agoIf that is true then having an additional material would do even less for how long furniture lasts. Unless there is some inherent cost benefit to the enhanced wood, which seems somewhat unlikely, since it requires additional processing.
- SirFatty 1y agoAre you talking about longevity (as you mentioned) or strength (per the article). Longevity relies on good construction methods (and good environment).
