He thus developed his method, a \u003cb\u003etechnique without nails or screws\u003c\/b\u003e based on the principle of assembly with mortise and tenon joints. Still used by scouts and all wilderness enthusiasts, \u003cb\u003efroissartage is practiced with respect for nature\u003c\/b\u003e, calls upon resourcefulness, and is primarily intended for camp furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTexts written by Magasin Vivant for Regain Magazine No. 20 \/ Mission: FROISSARTAGE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eFormat: 17 x 24 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e191 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Institut pour le Développement Forestier CNPF","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47347444318553,"sku":"MV-CNP-001","price":22.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/3270\/9877\/files\/FROISSARTAGE1.jpg?v=1757529593"},{"product_id":"une-annee-avec-la-terre-samuel-lewis-nezert-books","title":"A YEAR WITH THE EARTH - A STORY OF TIM THE GARDENER - SAMUEL LEWIS","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e“Actually, we don't need anything; everything we need is provided to us by the earth.
