trästycket

Trästycket is a Swedish noun that denotes a piece of wood, particularly a segment of timber prepared for use in carpentry, construction, or furniture making. The term is a compound of trä (wood) and stycke (piece, segment) and is used to refer to a discrete unit of timber, as opposed to the whole log or plank.

In practice, trästycket can refer to any small to medium-sized portion of wood selected for a given task, such as a block shaped for a joint or a cut-off piece from a longer board. In a sentence: "Jag behöver ett längre trästycke för den här ramen." The definite singular form of the word is trästycket.

It is a neutral term; not tied to any particular wood species. It is commonly used in manuals, guides, and by carpenters, woodworkers, and hobbyists. It can be contrasted with träbit, which tends to refer to a smaller scrap or leftover piece.
