Is it for actual use in water, or display? (or to be a planter?)

How large is this suposed to be?

Are you able to burn the material out where you live? (like the natives did?)
What sort of wood are you using?

It's fairly small, about 7 feet, with the wood i was going to see what may be available from the sawmill, but it is for display so i shouldn't really need an exotic hardwood or anything fancy.
I'm sure i could burn it out, how does that work?
thanks
