playwood Explanation: Plywood is a type of Manufactured Wood made from thin sheets of wood, called plies or wood veneers. The layers are glued together so that adjacent plies have their wood grain at right angles to each other for greater strength. There are usually an odd number of plies, as the symmetry makes the board less prone to warping. [1] A common reason for using plywood instead of plain wood is its resistance to cracking, shrinkage, twisting/warping, and its general high degree of strength. Also, plywood can be manufactured in sheets far wider than the trees from which it was made. It has replaced many dimensional lumbers on construction applications for these reasons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plywood |

plywood Explanation: Although this had surfaced before, it was but an alternative choice. In fact "plywood" is the precise meaning: thin sheets of wood (veneer, if you like) are glued together with the grain at cross angles (hence contraplacada) |
