Instructions / Assembly
One of the main reasons for weathering is the effects of water (moisture);
the moisture content of the wood at the surface is different than the interior
of the wood. As the climate changes, moisture moves in or out of the
wood, causing tension which can result in checking and or warping. You
can expect the following due to weathering. These changes will not affect
the strength of the product:
1.
Checking is surface cracks in the wood along the grain.
2.
Warping results from any distortion (twisting, cupping) from the
original plane of the board and often happens from rapid wetting and
drying of the wood.
3.
Fading happens as a natural change in the wood color as it is
exposed to sun-light and will turn a grey over time.
How can I reduce the amount of weathering to my table ?
Sunlight will break down the wood or coating, applying a
water repellant or stain on a yearly basis is important
maintenance. (see your local stain and paint supplier for
a recommended product)
