With soft sitka spruce thwarts,
Posted by: g2d on Nov-03-12 1:22 PM (EST)

I epoxied everything, holes inside, ends, the works, and I inserted plastic soda straw liners in the holes, in the wet epoxy. I wouldn't do all that for ash or other hardwoods, but at least oiling the inside of the holes is a good idea.
