The shape of the wooden substrate differs according to its purpose and the industry is divided into trades in which craftsmen who have mastered the necessary specialist techniques work. Certain woods are more suited to certain shapes and the correct choice of wood for each shape is another important part of the production process. Whichever kind of wood is chosen, it needs to be dried for three to five years after the tree has been felled before it can be used.
