Granularity: item · still unworkedStill unworked. Held piece by piece because the most demanding use so far proposed for these forks, the forked supports of the Wood Store platform, would depend on the geometry of each piece. A finer level can still be measured again and entered under a new date.

Where it came from
RReconstructed from photographs or remains
| Node | What is known | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Standing beech at Hooke Park, surveyed photographically | 204 trees surveyed, felling yielded 25 usable forks | Done by others, to be checked |
| Woodchip Barn, 2016 | 20 of the 25 were built into the truss, each matched to a position | Done by others, to be checked |
| Dismantling | Nothing was recorded: not how many forks came back, not where they were stacked | Done but not recorded |
| Lying near the old Woodchip Barn site | Location learned from the tutor and the forester | Reported, unverified |
| Retrieved by telehandler | Measured | |
| Dormant pile | Classified by locating holes and machined faces | Reconstructed from photographs or remains |

Classification by locating holes and machined faces
- Basis
- A first set of holes and no milled faces means one of the five the publications name as unused (08_A03, 08_A13, 10_E01, 10_E07, 11_A29); two sets with milled faces means one of the twenty built; no holes at all means the piece is not from the Woodchip Barn

Moved for a campus event
- What changed
- Pile cleared from the sawmill shelter
- Result
- Now uncovered elsewhere on campus; earlier values keep their dates and the present state is not yet re-measured

What this piece has been
The Woodchip Barn's making is documented down to the individual fork, but the documentation was never attached to the material: no fork carries its number. Every one of the twenty-five was drilled with a first set of three locating holes before scanning, and the twenty that went on to the robot bear a second set and milled end faces. Those traces are what classify this piece.
