Default Re: Which Wood Would You Use?

Art is right! Don't use polyurethane. Use at least two coats of spar varnish, three would be better. The best wood is probably Locust. Locust is very resistant to moisture and very hard. It is used for posts going into the ground. Oak grain is probably better looking, But locust is tougher. Both woods must be drilled to get a nail through.
