Powell, OH, Deck and Screened Porch
We wrapped the porch’s ridge beam and the surfaces of framing around the porch screens with a wood called Paulownia. This is a soft but strong wood more commonly used in Japan. It’s lightweight like balsa but stronger. It’s also more rot-resistant than pine, less likely to split, and doesn’t warp or cup when it’s drying. Paulownia is commonly used for veneer and for electric guitar bodies, among other things.
