Question from a novice... and I mean total virgin here...
Would like to turn some wood and make a few just for kicks this winter. Have seen some great looking homemade wooden plugs with a channel drilled thru for the wire that passes from front to back and a swivel under.
The plugs have a hook in the rear where the wire exits, and a swivel used thru a hole in the "vent" or bottom area of the plug that secures another hook.
My question is this... with all the prep work and time spent in priming, painting and topcoating the plugs... what is done to prevent the plug from rotting from the inside out as water will stay inside the plug along the wire channel?
