The wood must be plasticized. Although wood can be plasticized chemically or even by microwaves when in a green state, the most convenient way to plasticize wood is with steam. Wood cells are held together by a naturally occurring substance in the wood called lignin. Imagine the wood fi bers to be a bundle of rods with the space between them fi lled with lignin. The strength of this lignin bond between the rods can be decreased by subjecting For example, a straight piece of wood 1" thick and 18" the wood to steam.

  • UK OAK DOORS How to Curve Or Bend Wood
    UK OAK DOORS How to Curve or Bend Wood How to curve or bend wood 1 If you want to soften or plasticize wood, there are two methods that you can use. Steaming is a popular method for bending wood for making chair parts or staircase banisters, and is also sometimes used to make canoes, baskets, and musical instruments. Kerfing, on the other hand involves making a series of cuts into the wood to make the wood easier to bend. Kerfing weakens the wood but is often used for decorative purposes. How to Steam Wood The best wood to work with, when it comes to steaming, is wood that already has a fairly good moisture content. Choose a hardwood over a soft wood. If the wood is not already moist, then you should pre-soak it. Woods that are damp cope better with heat transfer. Wood is steamed in a steam box, which is connected to a steam generator using a hose. A steam box can be made from either wood or PVC, and must be big enough to accommodate the entire piece of wood to be steamed. Large boxes have racks inside them to support the wood. The box is almost completely airtight, but there must be a couple of small holes to allow some of the steam to escape. It is possible to make a DIY steam generator using a simple kettle, but there are specialist products that can be purchased for the purpose as well. If you are making a DIY steam generator, make sure that the hose fits over the end of the kettle tightly, and is properly secured.
