A wood cramp appears to be a name used mostly overseas. From pictures online, a wood cramp is a tool similar to wood a wood clamp, except wood cramps apparently may be used in larger scale projects and in wood planing machines. A wood clamp acts similar to a spring-action clothespin, except the clamp is much larger than a clothespin. Wood is glued together, then, the clamp is applied. The clamp is screwed down (handle that controls a long screw). As the tool is tightened, it exerts even pressure on both sides of pieces of wood, often at a the meeting of two boards or sides which forms a corner joint. Clamps are used in all types of woodmaking and cabinetry, or any wood projects that have joints. For example, a clamp could hold the side and back of a cabinet section while the wood glue dries. It could also be used on a scaled down mock-up model of a display or building (say 6 feet high by 20 feet long). Clamps come in different sizes; use is determined by the type of project and type of wood. A clamp's pressure, if screwed too tightly or used on softer woods, can leave imprints of the clamp into the wood, so size and amount of pressure exerted is important.

there is nothing intrinsically wrong with a stove that doesn't heat like it used to. It is in the wood that you are using. Maybe this load of wood is not as seasoned as the loads you used before. Any moisture left in unseasoned wood will reduce the heat of the fire and make the stove seem like it is not heating. Or maybe this load of wood is a different kind of wood than in the past. If you used Oak, Ash and Black Locust in the past, and are using Maple now, or Elm or Sycamore, it will not burn as hot. These woods burn faster but with less heat.
That in the past a catastrophic event destroyed a forest and "somewhat fossilized" the wood
In the past, humans primarily used biomass energy for heating and cooking, such as burning wood or animal dung. They also used water power for grinding grain and sawing wood, and later harnessed wind and solar energy for various agricultural and industrial purposes.
She hasn't.
The author has used "would" so many times in the story UNCLE PODGER HANGS A PICTURE to indicate an action of the past that occurred repeatedly.
If there is a possibility this is CCA treated wood, it is not a good idea. This is the "green wood" treated lumber common for the past 40 years of so. It was used for exterior wood to resist rot and insects. CCA stands for Chrome-Copper-Arsenic- the 3 metals used to treat the wood. Smoke from this wood is extremely unhealthy. I would not use it.
