Hi,
Good luck with your project! Oh, and I'm not being sarcastic, I really mean it.
You could also make garden gates, rabbit hutches, chicken coops, dog kennels, etc.
Although the timber is not pre-treated you can re-cycle waste oil from your lawnmower, car, quads, tractors etc, to paint the wood hence waterproofing it.
I've done that with my garden fence and it makes it lovely and dark, you can also mix the oil with creasote substitute 50/50, for a darker mix.
Would love to see photos to see how you get on, and as I said earlier.....Bon Chance!
