With everything going on this year Austin Outdoor Studio has neglected it’s poor little blog, well no more. So far this year we have built a ton of 4′x4′ Square Gardening Tables, Steel Planters (of course), been to a couple shows like Le Garage Sale and The Austin Home Show, developed some cool hand crafted house numbers, and have dove right back into the landscaping work. It seems Austin is still alive and kicking in all this economic doom and gloom. We have been fortunate for the clients that keep coming back, the new relationships we have formed, and the constant referrals we receive. I once again must say Thank You!
Here are some more pictures of some of our recent projects.

Ipe (EE-pay), is a beautiful Brazillain hardwood that is an excellent choice for outdoor use because of its unique properties. Some of its highlights as follows:
1) Hardness, almost 3 times as hard as Oak
2) Decay Resistant, Rated by the US Forest Products Lab for 25 years plus.
3) Fire Resistant, has a rating of Class A by the NFPA or class 1 by the UBC
I chose this wood for it’s beauty, durability and clean consistant grain. This wood is also a great product to be used decks, fencing or planters. This material does cost more than your typical cedar, but its beauty and longevity more than make up for the difference. If you are interested in learning more about this wood and its uses please contact us or one of our local suppliers here in the Austin area. It is available at both Austin Wholesale Decking and Everwood Decking
