I know you can seal brushwood and bamboo with polyurethene varnish, but can you seal larger pieces of wood?

Also, how do i know if a varnish is safe?

I wouldn't even try it.

Why would you need to seal the wood though?

Seal them with a 2 part marine grade epxoy and wash the heck out of them use vinegar and scrub use soap and scrub. Rinse everything off extremely well.
