Yakisugi
This is an old Japanese method for treating wood. No synthetic chemical needed unless you choose to use for further treatment.
I've never done it before but will be doing it soon. From my research, it's a relatively easy process of light charring, cleaning/wash, drying and linseed oil coating.
The application will be for exterior use - outdoor patio with no cover.
I've look around from local sawmills and one suggested using semi fresh cut pinewood. The whole patio will be builded with beams and decking. Simple 6' x 15'.
Question:
  • Anyone has experience with this method with using pinewood?
  • If I secure it well with screws, will warping be an issue?
Any other comments most welcome!
