    Hi The wood called keroin is very weather resistant,we had some staging covered with it and it was ouside for 20 years without any probs As for the rest of it 2 coats of external Osmo might work so long as the daughter recoats it every year or two

    It Is now empty and I intend to turn it into a more conventional kiln.I have a fan heater with a seperate controlfor temp and can't make up my mind wether to go for a dehumidifier or what

    any advice would be a great help

    cheers
