have you checked to make sure that pine is a safe wood for gliders? Dont quote me on this, i might be getting mixed up with another wood, but i believe pine has toxic oils in the wood that can kill a wide range of bark chewers, like rodents.
But i may be getting pine and another wood mixed up, so best wait until Jen or Marie come to verify or crucify that reply! lol
