Sometimes you just want to be away from it all, even if you’re only in the middle of your own yard.
What Does it Look Like?
A gazebo of ipe wood would add just one more touch of class to your yard. If you close your eyes, you can already see it, right there in the middle of your yard. Standing there, inviting. Think and imagine carefully. What do you see? Does it have windows that can keep the rain and weather out, or is it open letting the breeze through, and keeping things cool in the shade?
How is it set up? Do you have benches around the walls, or do you have some high-end lawn furniture in the middle it? Or did you decide to build some chairs and furniture out of ipe?
Imagine hard, and you’ll see it. You can see it there in your yard with ipe’s dark, rich tones. Keep imagining, and you’ll also feel the envy of your neighbors when they see it.
The Challenge
There’s no denying the beauty of a gazebo built of ironwood, nor how tough it is. It’s not something that’s going to blow over with the first storm that comes along.
There is something else that ipe offers that few other kinds of wood offer, and that’s a challenge. If you’re a woodworker yourself, you may be feeling the challenge of building something from one of the hardest woods on the planet.
Ipe’s density and hardness, make it one of the most durable woods you’ll ever work with. Anything you build with it will last for a good long time, something future generations will be admiring.
Maybe you’re the type who loves a good challenge, and building with ipe will certainly be that. Building a gazebo from Brazilian walnut will certainly be a challenge, and different from doing a deck.
That doesn’t mean it can’t be done. It’s not impossible. Just remember the motto of the US Navy Construction Battalion (the Sea Bees): “The difficult we can do right away; the impossible takes a little longer.”
And when you’ve finished it, you’ll be able to point with pride at having done something that few other people have done.
You’ve climbed the mountain.
