Conny: So, what's particle board, then?
Me: Well, you take wood dust, and small wood chunks, and you mix them with a lot of glue, and you pour this mixture into a wooden-plank-shaped mold, kind of like a paper mold, and then you apply a LOT of pressure to it, and when the glue dries, you have this wood-shaped piece of, well, glue, mainly, with a bit of wood thrown in. The best thing about it is that you can make it from all the detritus of a lumber mill, because it's just wood dust and odd-sized chips.
Conny: So particle board is like the sausage of the woodworking world.
Me: ...Yes. Except with fewer calories.
