It was graveyard shift so anything to stay awake.

Early in my carpenter career I worked for a compony called Panalpina. All I did was build shipping crates for oddly shaped and sometimes huge stuff. The only interesting part of the job was trying to guess what the stuff was we were crating up.

I have given up on any water based products. Maybe it’s the climate here, I am not too far North of you (you mentioned Vermont) We use the best red cedar we can find and I guess that’s part of the issue because nothing sticks to it.
