In Brazil, a country with 2 massive rainforests (Amazonia and Atlântica) pinewood was always seen as the timber for forms and the low-quality objects. Pinewood can be found around the world in different qualities. In Brazil, where Amazon's trees are still commercialized under not fully clear(impossible) sustainable sources, pinewood is really cheap for low quality pinewood and also —the same price— for mid-quality pinewood. Taking advantage of this opportunity, pinewood was picked one by one in the mill, and Argelim Pedra pieces found in a demolition nearby months earlier were recycled, so material costs arise to 20 usd.
