Hi,

I want to cover a plain pine timber post with hardwood to make it look more modern. The problem is I have to use a few planks of hardwood placed together to cover it. What would I use to fill any gaps or joins between the planks to make it look like one large peice of timber when its stained?

Would a simple paintable filler do, or would you still see the joins, etc through the stain? :?


Any suggestions would be very helpful,
Cheers :U

filler isn't good for anything but the smallest gaps.
i suggest stained epoxy.
