To get an idea of the various wood textures provided, load and render 
t_woods.ini from the portfolio folder. It will create samples of sll the 
textures from woods.inc and an html page to display them in your browser.
There ar eother wood textures in the textures.inc.

After having experimented with those, go ahead and start experimenting on your 
own. Some of the things that toy can look at are:
color_map/pigment_map/texture_map/material_map
Uneven scaling.
warp.
turbulence.
Layering of textures.
