    Default wooden bathtub from rosewood

    I am just a guy from a remote area and been dreaming to have a beatiful fancy bathtub from a material most ppl wanted, but that's above my effort ability,
    so i just made it from rosewood as its a lot in my area,
    its keep the hot water last for as long as i stay inside.

    do you have any plans??? would love to build something similar here in oz. Did you have to seal between the timbers or did it leak a wee bit at fiirst then swell etc?
    cheers, michael.

    Now having a wooden bath tub in rosewood is my dream too. Not much grows around here though.
