[Woodcarver] re conservation wooden sign preservation

[Marcel Parent]

Although I have yet to get to my sign making projects, I would use Maple as it has a fine grain but is hard enough to ensure lettering has clean, crisp lines.  As far as wood treatments I would consider "Lifetime Wood Treatment", which you can read about at the following link:    http://www.valhalco.com/
   
  I hope it turns out well for you.  Please let the group know.
