Hi all, I've been searching around the web to no avail so I thought perhaps someone in here could help. A few years ago I saw a documentary on TV that included a piece about a chipboard factory. I think it was somewhere in Canada but I may be wrong about that as my memory of the details is hazy. Anyway, this mill out in the country was taking trees and turning them into wood chips. These were mixed with an adhesive and rolled using heat to make chipboard. Now, at a certain time of year the place was inundated with moths, millions of them. May have been butterflies come to think of it. These moths or butterflies would land on the boards going through the rollers and become compressed into the surface. Hundreds of the insects "fossilised" in the chipboard, there to remain for ever. I'm thinking this stuff would look pretty good varnished and used as shelves or flooring. Has anyone heard of this before? The maufacturers name? Perhaps a picture? Any information would be a great help as I'm drawing a complete blank at the moment.
Cheers!
