quick one. i searched, didn't find any definative answers though.
i made a 2x8 collar for the magic chef 7.2 cubic feet chest freezer, so i can get 6 kegs in it.
i just used normal/low grade building lumber.
the keezer will be out of sight, in my closet, with the taps running into my wall for taps on the opposite side built into the wall.
my question is, should i be worried about the wood warping, mildewing, rotting, etc. from the cold/condensation on the inside of the keezer?
is it neccessary or important to seal the wood with some type of water sealer? if so, just the inside, or the outside and sides as well? also if so, can anyone reccomend a particular sealer to use?
thanks!
