First, it is important to remember that pressure-treated wood is not a pesticide, is not a hazardous product, and has not been listed as hazardous waste. It is completely proper and legal to send treated wood to a landfill. However, due to the growing shortage of landfill space, many industrial users are selecting recycling of treated wood as their disposal option. There is a growing movement to "manage" the disposal of treated wood. See similar questions...

While we do keep a good inventory of items in our retail store, it is impossible to predict who will order what. This means that in many cases, your order will have to be hand-forged by the blacksmith just for you! We quote lead times of 4 to 6 weeks because there are many steps involved in getting the product to you before and after its made. However, your order may actually be shipped earlier than our quoted lead times. We will always let you know when it ships. See similar questions...

Superficial nicks and scratches that have cut into the finish film, or even cut all the way into the wood underneath, can be camouflaged with color treatment and waxing. Wax sticks in a variety of colors are available from the hardware store. Paste shoe polish applied with a cotton swab can be used to color the exposed wood. If the scratch is just on the top of the finish film and not very deep, a simple buffing with a furniture wax will restore the luster to the finish. See similar questions...

The answer is that both are good. Neither solid wood nor veneer is, by itself, a measure of better quality furniture. If comparable craftsmanship is used, the quality of a solid wood or veneered piece of furniture should be the same. What is the best way to dust my furniture?

The difference is simple. Kiln dried wood will not split or crack when taken from a humid climate such as Indonesia, into a dryer climate such as the USA or Europe. Furniture that is not made with kiln dried wood will immediately begin to deteriorate upon exposure to these drier climates. The result is furniture that cracks and splits and cannot be repaired because of continual deterioration. If you buy furniture that is not kiln dried you are making a huge mistake!
