You know as well as I do that many of the finest things in our homes are made from wood -- from stunning kitchen cabinets to beautiful entertainment units. We all know this resource's most common uses, but how about some of the lesser-known items it's been used for?
Were you aware that there are wooden laptops somewhere out there? Or how about that there are some sportscars entirely made from lumber? If this surprises you, then you'll be blown way by the rest of the goodies contained within this oddly wooden wonders cluster.
