Is "Thermally Modified Wood" a Good Options for Exterior Cladding?

I used some thermally modified ash for the top of a small table that is on a friends deck. The wood is dark brown and has held up very well for about 2 years, so far. The wood I used was cutoffs from a deck project a contractor friend built for one of his customers. That too, is still doing well.

I’d use it again.

@woodtodust any chance it was Thermory? Also how did you treat the wood (oil/stain/etc)?

Well, modern paint and stains make wood a little more acceptable now, but give me cement products any day. Tougher, longer lasting, wood boring bees hate it, Termites and wood ants ignore it. Fire resistant and will not rot unless actually submerged in water.
