Factors that should be considered in the selection of wooden craft materials

The main material of wooden crafts is wood, and the choice of wood directly determines the quality of wooden crafts. How to choose the materials of wooden crafts?
First of all, the role and function of wooden crafts, that is, the nature of the use value endowed by the wood carving products, often determines the species of wood used. At the same time, the choice of tree species often affects the value of woodcarving products. For example, the middle and high-end carved back chairs generally use mahogany as components, and the carved ornaments should all be mahogany. At the same time, the chair made of mahogany is much higher grade than the chair made of manchurian willow.
Secondly, the requirements for wooden crafts made by woodcarving, that is, the production process of woodcarving, shallow carving and round carving, have different requirements for the materials used, and the fine and extensive processing also have different requirements for the quality of the wood. Therefore, the wood used in wooden crafts should be consistent with the use function of wood carving ornaments, adapt to the environment, and be convenient for carving and processing tree species. Of course, the basic requirement for wooden crafts is to choose dry wood with uniform wood fiber structure, consistent quality and color, not easy to deform and crack, and free from defects.
Finally, the environment in which the wooden crafts are located, that is, the environment in which the wood carving ornaments are located, should choose tree species that are suitable for this environment. For example, in a damp and changeable environment, choose abrasion-resistant and moisture-resistant tree species. It is better to use fir than pine. It is better to use camphor in an environment with pests.
