A solid bottom would have made it a six board chest in my area parlance. Used for years by seafarers and trades people for voyages and to transport tools to the job. I found a small one, somebody had painted green. Washed and cleaned it is now living life as a foot stool and or overflow guest seating. Thanks for sharing your enjoyment of this revitalization.

It's looking beautiful. I hope that you do something with the bottom. It needs to be repaired, cleaned, and moisturized too. It is a shame that man has to abuse nature to the point of extinction.

You mention the early European settlers cut down cedar trees to the point of extinction. I was taught in school they used them for fence posts and caskets! Understandable given Australian native trees are hard to cut but what a waste of a natural resource.

In 1802, restrictions were placed on the Australian Cedar Industry by the Governor, Captain Phillip King. Cedar was seen as the property of the crown. You needed a permit to Fell. Im sure the early settlers took no notice of this and used the Cedar Timber as fence posts and coffins being termite resistant. thx for watching
