    Default Another impossible wotisit...

    Found this on my nature strip this afternoon. Some sort of bench seat I guess. Thick and heavy.
    First thought pine, but I think it too heavy for that. 99.9% sure it is solid.

    The top is quite faded compared to underneath, pretty sure it is a stain.

    I’m going all in and calling it for Sumatran Teak.

    It does have a Teaky look, 100% not pine of any sort.

    Teak (possibly Elm?), but I think Teak would be my first rule-out....

    That sounds feasible. It does have that Indonesian/Bali style.

    So what can I do with it I wonder...
