I got a good deal on some pecan and i was planning to use it to build patio furniture. I don't know much about pecan and I'm having trouble finding much info about it. Is this a good wood for outdoor use or should i find an indoor project for it?

Pecan is literally a hickory, carya Illinoinensis, the Illinois hickory.
