Norm and Sam helped Rebecca move in
with Robin Colcord.
They
carried in a pretty heavy desk.
Later, in Cheers Norm comments on
the desk; "That was some heavy desk, what kind of wood was that
made of?"
Must have
been oak, that's one of your heavier grains.
(Norm: "Yeah?")
Yea, but as
any lumberjack would tell you though, it's not the toughest one
to cut through. (Norm: "No?")
No, no. (Turns to Frasier) Hey Doc, what do you think the
toughest thing to cut through is? (Frasier: "Your
unending bull.")
The truth:
Oak is ion fact one of the heavier
grained woods and is often used in furniture.
The answer Cliffs question, perhaps one
of the toughest woods to cut through is Ekki or Azobe, it has to
be cut with a diamond saw blade and it cannot be nailed, it has
to be pre-drilled.
