Lest anyone think I ignore the advice I get here, I've been sealing my wood chunks. This has turned out to be a fair amount of work. The chunks are so dirty I often couldn't tell which syrface was end grain. So I bought them into the heated section of my shop, let them sit a day to warm up, and then wire brushed the dirt off the end grain. Here is about 1/2 of them stacked on my assembly table and a makeshift table. I sit them with the end grain facing up so I could do that end, let it dry, and then flip them over and do the other end. The brushing process proved to be useful. I found 9 chucks that I deemed to not be worthy of further effort, they go to the burn pile. I found the instructions on the can of Anchorseal to be sparse regarding it's use, so I'm just planning on one coat on end of the chunk unless someone tells me otherwise.

You pot it on plenty thick.  I'd say you're good to go.

looks good and a nice collection of wood there. An economical alternative to anchor seal is candle wax. I picked up an old electric skillet at a garage and people practically give old candles away at garage sales as well. I just put the piece down in the skillet for a few minutes then flip over to do the other end. Sometimes it even smells nice.

Looks good Fred. That will make a big difference.
