<p>Lootu: Sandbenders have been shown to create sandstone, & I'm unaware of why glass would be considered any more "purified" than "normal" sand. With metal, you're extracting as many other ingredients as possible to refine the desired "ore," but the fundamental ingredient of glass is chemically the same as the main ingredient of sand, SiO2. </p><p>Simo1102: The ability to transfer chi is the domain of energybending. </p>

Ok thanks

<p>The consensus on different threads for each respective topic was this: </p><p>Glassbending is theoretically possible due to glass being made of sand, therefore making it an extent of sand. </p><p>Woodbending is theoretically possible if there is enough moisture in it, making it simply an extent of plantbending. But like Neo said, wood is not exactly a good element to weaponize, since it can easily be cut, snapped, burnt, or otherwise destroyed by any of the elements, and its rigidity (and relative scarcity) only makes it good for certain weapons. </p><p>In other words, woodbending is fun to theorize about, but in a logical sense, it's pretty much useless. </p>

<p>I think your best bet would be to just rip a tree out of the ground & chuck it at someone. Though if plantbending can be combined with another waterbending technique which can accelerate a plant's growth, then some interesting things might be possible. </p>

<p>For woodbending, I remember in another thread discussing how a waterbender may be able to use healing in conjunction with plant/woodbending in order to accelerate a plant's growth which i think would be a really interesting application of woodbending. I remember I also came to the conclusion that woodbending would only be possible for a waterbender with an earthbender mentality since wood is very sturdy like earth, similar to how most people came to the conclusion that lavabending is earthbending with a waterbending mentality. </p><p>For glassbending, I see no reason why it wouldn't work except maybe because it's an amorphous solid(?) idk if that would affect anything and I honestly don't really know what an amorphous solid is, but just something to think about </p>
