Thanks for that info.  I was thinking that I might try tung oil, but from
what you say, maybe I can use what ever is left in a can of finish.

I've read that treating the ends of logs with paint is only a mild retardant
to moisture transfer and that the transfer occurs even when the ends are
painted.

One more question.

I want to put something on the ends of the pine logs that will not stop
moisture transfer.  Something like paint will stop the moisture.  I thought
about putting paper bags on each end, that works with turning projects.
