I’d love to see some space to talk about the manufacturing of wood type.

In the Equipment section, I propose the addition of “Wood Type Manufacturing Equipment.” Within that section, articles I would add include “Pantograph Routers” (here I can imagine information regarding the physics and geometry of the machine itself, variations in its form, and nuances of its construction.), “History of Wood Type Manufacturing” (hello David Shields), and “Wood Type Manufacturing” (where I could discuss the details of how it happens).

The “wood type” sub-section found in the “letterpress type” section is a place for information regarding wood type itself: use, maintenance, etc. and is therefore an inappropriate place for the type of info proposed above.

Thoughts?
