[citation needed] The form of mixing of the tree types is commonly ...

When stocking, a tree's basal area is measured. The basal area is a cross-sectional area of the stump taken about 4.5 feet (1.4 m) above the ground. [7] The equation for calculating the basal area of trees in a stand is Basal Area = 0.005454 DBH 2, where DBH is the diameter of the tree at the aforementioned measuring height. [7]
A Christmas tree stand is an object designed to support a cut, natural or an artificial Christmas tree. Christmas tree stands appeared as early as 1876 and have had various designs over the years. Those stands designed for natural trees have a water-well, which, in many cases may not hold enough water to adequately supply the cut tree.
Files & Rasps Top two are files. The bottom (orange-handled) tool is a rasp. Both files and rasps are used to grind down wood material either to make the surface flat, rounded, concaved, or many other shapes.
