Totem Pole Restoration News by John Welch
You can see we are now repainting the Totem Pole. I will
try to stain the bottom two figures. It will be sprayed
with a solution that will hopefully keep the beetles out
by killing them. Again it will allow the pole to repeal
water and still allow moisture to excape from the pole.
The bottom also was badly infested with Carpenter ants,
bugs and some termites. We have bored into the pole and
put a solution that will kill the bugs and help preserve
the pole by killing the dry rot as well. We have removed
almost all of the bad places and will replace it with
Douglas Fir that will also be treated and serve as a
huge bond beam. The base and most of the Bear and salmon
will have to be recarved. The epoxy we will be using to
bond the wood repairs to the pole and new material will
be stronger than the wood it's self. Hope to have it up
by September. Right now we are waiting to see if we can
get the wood we need from a large company.
