Creating tables that are durable and functional with their ability to actually fold down to just six inches storing and moving them should come as no problem at all. Michael\u2019s handmade custom tables and chairs can be seen in hollywood movies such as \u201cKindergarten Cop\u201d and \u201cThe Patriot\u201d and how been shipped all over the world to customer in places such as a castle in England and a palace in Egypt.<\/p>\n
One of the reasons that Michael\u2019s tables are so durable and carry their own unique look is that he uses his own blend of Tung Oil which comes from a certain tree from China and is unique in its ability to dry quickly without leaving behind an oily residue, instead creating a tough satiny, waterproof coating that has made it especially valuable in paints, varnishes, linoleum, oilcloth and printing inks. Spending years experimenting with different blends Michael finally found the perfect one that will allow his furniture to last decades out in the sun creating an extremely durable piece of outdoor furniture.<\/p>\n
One of Michael’s most unique and beautiful products the \u201cSequoia Sets\u201d are made using a certain type of redwood that comes from the coastal redwood, using whole boards and his unique tung oil blend to create a \u201ccabin\u201d look with beautiful mixes of lighter and darker shades of the redwood in one solid piece. Due to the unique coating and finish the \u201cSequoia Sets\u201d with light maintenance will actually look better at five years old than they did when you first bought them.<\/p>\n
Michael Frazier uses only redwood for his furniture because it is the fastest growing crop tree in the united states and can be easily acquired from growers without harming any of our natural forests, as well as providing a unique one of a kind appearance with each piece. Redwood is unique and special in its combination of beauty, warmth, durability and versatility which help make each piece memorable. Durability is also an area where redwood excels with \u00a0being naturally resistant to insects and decay. Additionally, Redwood has excellent \u201cdimensional stability,\u201d which means that it shrinks and swells less than other woods when exposed to water.<\/p>\n
