I don't have any plans at the moment but to just look at it, I think I'll paint both sides at the moment with a wood sealant and like it dry through the bark, Has any one tried melting wax candles and pouring it over the ends would that work not tried it, also someone said put it in a bin liner full of sawdust which would slow down the rate of drying.
I don't know what to do for the best result ?
