Band 7+: the diagram below shows how chipboard is created from wood and then used to make furniture. provide an overview of the information by identifying and describing the key details and include conparisions where appropriate.

The provided diagram illustrates the process of creating chipboards from wood and then forming them to furniture. Overall, there are 9 steps divided into 2 stages: preparation and production, beginning with cutting down the trees and culminating in making funiture.

In the preparation stage, the trees are cut down then trimmed like logs before transporting to another place for crushing. After that, they are fed into a grinder, where they are processed into wood chips. These chips are then dried for 24 hours emitting steam and hot air to remove excess moisture. Following that, they are stored for one to four weeks for stabilizing prior to entering the next stage.

In the production stage, it begins with mixing the stored wood chips with glue and wax. This mixture is then shaped into moulds to form solid chipboards. Afterwards, they are pressed to create stability for the moulds before being generated to chipboards. Finally, the finished chipboards are used to make various pieces of furniture, completing the entire process.
