I have bout 4 extra gallons of floor stain w/ polyurethane. And was thing about making a dip tank with some unused sewer pipe. Just a quick dip then air dry. All my boards I have set up with eye screws that hang on hooks to dry nose down. Any downside to sealing the boards? I know there will be holes in them once I put up fur but just wondering bout anybody's thoughts. Thanks Ya can't miss fur if yur traps are out somewhere. Or so I've been told.
