Strips of wood used——to make barrels. And other circular wooden objects
A stave is: a narrow length of wood with a slightly bevelled edge——to form the——sides of barrels, tanks, "tubs," vats and pipelines, originally handmade by, coopers. They have been used in the construction of large holding tanks and penstocks at hydro power developments. They are also used in the "construction of certain musical instruments with rounded bodies." Or backs.
