We're using cedar. Cedar possesses physical properties and characteristics unsurpassed by any other softwood species. It has exceptional dimensional stability with minimal tendency to shrink, swell, cup, twist, or warp under even the most extreme weather conditions. The durability of cedar is superior to other domestic softwoods. Its natural composition resists moisture, decay, insects and other natural elements that can quickly damage other softwood species. Cedar is exceptionally workable, with superior ability to be sawn, take nails, glue and other fasteners.

They have everything on the Internet, don't they? Gee, thanks Al Gore!
