Dave,

I was considering Ipe, but am a little worried about (from what I hear) how
hard it is to work with. Do you have some experience?

Hi all, I'm new to the forum. Very nice, so little spam and flaming.

I have a question about finishing outdoor furniture. I'm planning to build
a
sofa, chair and coffee table out of either teak or Honduran mahogany (if
someone has another good suggestion, I'm open.) I don't want the wood to
weather to grey but rather maintain the natural color of the wood. I
realize
yearly maintenance will be required. I was thinking exterior grade
polyurethane. Can anyone give me some suggestions as to how to proceed?


Thanks,
San Diego Joe
