The thermal processing of wood material has gained importance since the 1990s as part of the steps towards more rational use of it. With the heating processing for some places of use any harmful effects on the environment are produced without the structure of modified wood material is obtained. A certain discipline is created according to the results obtained by the application of heat processing with different methods on different trees, while the users are also guided on the appropriate material. In this study, some physical and mechanical characteristics were studied after the thermal processing of the wild cherry (Cerasus avium(L.) Monench) wood at temperatures of 190°C and 212°C with the ThermoWood method. The results obtained from physical characteristics according to the control samples have been determined that with the heat processing, the full dry specific weight, the dry air specific weight, the reduction and extension amounts are reduced, and the mechanical characteristics are not a very significant change in the pressure resistance parallel to fiber.
