If you never saw how a saw mill works and flooring is cut, watch This
Old House tonight. They have a segment from forest to finish.


speaking of flooring

recently saw some printing on variety of materials including those
suitable to flooring

they can recreate any species of wood including knots and they have
enough randomness so that the pattern is not recognizable


have not kept up with the flooring industry but i saw some installed
and without stomping or looking very closely it looked as good as
real wood

not sure about the wear and tear as this floor was new
