AnswerYou dont its impossiable.

Update January 14, 2010:

Actually you can, and we did. We used to do it a LOT, but ever since oil became cheap, we haven't (oddly enough) returned to the practice. Here's a link to, and a description of a Laurel and Hardy short in which the uses of wood plastic were promoted (probably to help curb the use of metal for rationing):

The Tree in a Test Tube

Produced in 1941 by U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Forest Service - 1 reel - COLOR

Director: Charles MacDonald

Cast: Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, Pete Smith, Lee Vickers

A short public service film about the many uses of plastic. A week before the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Laurel and Hardy shot their brief, wordless bit on the Fox lot. The narration for their scene was provided by Pete Smith, who was then producing and narrating very funny short subjects for MGM Only interesting because, as long as The Rogue Song remains lost, it's the only extant film The Boys made in color.
