<p>[QUOTE="Whittles308, post: 175784, member: 2861"]I have a trough like that I use as a planter from my grandpas farm, and what I did to preserve it and use it was I built a slighter smaller box to go inside it, painted it and sealed it with marine paint and lacquer, then stuffed that mossy stuff between the boxes to fill in the gaps and it's been going on 12 years with no problems! I live somewhere very dry and every so often I oil the wood but no cracks or anything.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
