What would _you_ call it? "Plastic things from which other things can be
built using the same tools and techniques as for lumber?"

To add to the confusion, consider those I-beam joists made of plywood, or
termite puke. Didn't "lumber" meaning "wood" derive from "lumber" meaning
"furniture," which in days of yore was made of wood cuz they didn't have
plastic?
