A mechanized technic to take wood samples from living trees
Abstract
For examining wood anatomical structure, the chisel is used to take wood samples from living trees. This practice takes a lot of time, requires mechanical power and destroys trees much more. With this proposed mechanized technic, wood samples can be taken in 1-2 minutes by using a professional, high speed and cordless drill that cylindrical punches can be plugged into. Thanks to this technic, energy loss reduces, the damage done to trees decreases and taking transverse, radial and tangential sections from wood samples by microtome is possible.
