Hey all, I was at a wedding last month and they had a bunch of different games set up outside. One was a Giant Jenga game that a bunch of us ended up playing for hours after a few drinks and we all had a blast. A guy built it with a bunch of regular Spruce 2x4's crudely cut up. I wanted to build this game for when I'm entertaining outside during BbQs etc but wanted to build a nicer version. I got 7 Cedar 2x4x8 and cut 54 10.5" long pieces with my mitre. Sanded each one with 220 on an orbital then did two coats of Varathane.
It it looks good but now I'm thinking I shouldnt have used Varathane because they don't seem to slide to good, especially when they are stacked for any length of time? If I were to wet sand with Linseed oil or something so you thing that would take the tackiness away? Thoughts/opinions welcomed. 👍
