You know what your so right all new ideas, concepts, products, etc are all fake and false claims. The world is still flat and there is a LARGE cover up to convince us the world is round. This kind of falsehood can not continue...

Oh sorry I just woke up and realized that science and engineering are amazing... if we can put a man on the moon don't you think we can make a deck board that performs well? whatever...

And most are for municipalities, and are inspected by that states D.O.T. Most all will spec out a deck made from Ipe. Now that is because it's at the top of the Jenka scale for hardness. It also is one of the lowest for shrinkage after installation. ( No broke screws ) Also the wood is so dense that it needs no treatment or stain to withstand the elements. We install this wood on bridges near the Ocean and they have withstood Salt spray for over 15 yrs. without a single treatment. Basically if you want a quality product you have to pay for it, and do your homework, or otherwise your no better than a weekend hobbyist.

See thats what this forum is all about, building bridges to friendship.
p.s. if sense was so common, there wouldn't be these issues

Lets start all over again.

Too much slapping going on in this one.

Time for it to close.
