Like
all organic materials, pine has its own character and quirks
responding to the environment, and will change over time. Pine
should be treated with understanding and a certain amount of
care. For wood professionals, knowing about wood properties,
as well as individual species, is critical for use intentions.
For consumers, it's important to have realistic expectations
about how wood will perform, and what it will take for it to
last the longest.
The
information and graphics concerning wood species and their
properties are those generally accepted descriptions. Wood is
a natural material subject to many variations in color,
dimensional stability, grain, and hardness. No description is
able to encompass all possible variations. The characteristics
of southern yellow pine make it an idea wood to use on our
chairs.
When
ordering your chair in untreated southern yellow pine, keep in
mind that your going to have to have the chairs painted before
a customer can use them outside. It's imperative that a
treatment process be completed before these chairs spend even
one day in inclement weather. Once untreated pine gets wet, it
will dry to completely different form. This in fact will
ultimately run the strongest built of our chairs.
Our
chairs are built with the highest quality in mind. The chairs
are sold with the intention that they will be cared for so
that they'll last to our expected life estimations. Like
anything else, if you don't take even simple care of it, it
will not last very long. When even the slightest care is
taken, it will increase the life of our chairs a great deal.
The
untreated yellow pine will come as a distinct yellow tone.
This is widely different that it's treated counterpart. The
texture of the wood is a very fine finish that is 100% ready
for any finish you wish to use. By standards, we do not paint
chairs before shipment. Screen printing or adding of decals
can be done before shipment of your order.
