Greetings everyone,
I've made a simple little wood project that I'll use with my bike (pedal kind) that will allow me to mount lights on it - it will be used to "expand" the mounting area. Right now I have a horn, cycle computer, light - I have no room left to mount another light to use for riding in the morning/night from work. I built it out of walnut from some that I have laying around. Now the issue is what type of finish? This will be outdoors during the day, so it will see it's fair share of all types of weather - hopefully just sun, but chances for rain and snow are possible, along with road grim. It doesn't have to stand up to everything, but I'd like it to look good, but hold up well for a year or so.
Any thoughts?
Michael
