Hi,
Following on from a previous thread which I asked about collecting wood in my local area, I managed to find some very nice Oak branches without bark on.
I understand that Oak is a close grain wood so should not get soggy and flake too quickly; however is there any type of clear protective varnish that I could use in order to prolong the life of the wood?
I have a lot of different clear varnishes I used on an a piece of Oak furniture I made last year but definately do not want to take a gamble on the do's and don'ts when I have a colony of fish and newly bought plants.
Let me know if anyone has ideas on a varnish,
Thanks Ryan
