Actually, it shouldn't be that hard. I mean we've all seen coconut cups and bamboo cups in stores. So its not impossible. My whole reasoning, is that I want to create some bamboo and coconut cups in very cools shapes that I've seen in some vintage tiki menues....stuff you can't buy. I have reasonably good woodworking skills, so for me, the only drawback is just what we've been talking about...the sealer. I don't know a thing about that particular aspect of creating wood-based drinking vessels
