Re: Can anybody tell whats needed here for a wood bed?

How long has it been since you installed it? Any pics? Would be interested to see how it's weathered. Linseed oil is a good sealant - and looks nice too, but it requires re-application. Most recommendations I've seen indicate approximately 6 month intervals for outdoor applications (I'm way too forgetful for that frequent of an interval, I'll paint my bed wood body color when the time comes, that way I can keep it touched up with a brush if necessary. Not as pretty as some of the stained beds, but works for me). Sorry to hear yours is splitting, that's got to be frustrating.
