is this wood dense enough to sink right away?

The wood I got was dense enough to sink. I had no problems, bit it did turn my water a little brownish after a few weeks because I didn't clean it properly.

From what I remember yes. If you do not get rid of all the tannins your tank will look brown. Try purigen in the bag. It works wonders

Sunk to the bottom without any hesitation. To prevent excessive tannins release. Go buy yourself a huge aluminum pot for about 10 bucks at your nearest mexican market (typically used to make tamales or posole) and boil them for a couple of hours. Once I did that, I did not get the brownish/tea water that many experience.

I always allow new driftwood to soak in water so tannins will leech out of it (helps prevent the yellow coloring) for a few hours (boiling water works best). The wood sank quickly in the water that I put it in. It never floated.

Also, the wood will turn your water slightly acidic and yellowed the water.

Mine was. I didn't have any problem with it sinking and staying put in the aquarium.

Some of the pieces were but as soon as they get totally wet they stay put. No floating.

I'm not 100% certain but I'm pretty sure it is not real wood - most likely some form of composite. It actually feels a little more dense than you'd find in most furniture woods.

In my opinion yes, just make sure you let it sit for about 15 mins after you pour in the water.

NO! They will sink like a brick! Awesome and excellent for fitness/strength training ONLY! They are heavy and stiff.

The wood is well-sealed. That said, I wouldn't leave anything wet on it for long because I think you'd get water rings.

yes. It's not super hard like oak, probably pine or some other soft wood. But it is NOT pressboard or cheap veneered plywood.

This is definitely high density. I think it's more of a slow sinking. If you sit on the edge of the bed, it will sink down fairly quickly, but because you're putting all your weight in one spot. Depending on your height & the height of what you're putting the mattress on, it can make getting into bed a bit gymnastic! It feels like a very firm mattress, but with the cushioning you can only get from foam. We love it!

I don't think so because it was on the heavy side which usually means not solid wood. That said, it looks really nice.

From my experience I would buy the highest density you can find. I bought 4" depth with 5pound density.....you won't sink but you will love it.

Yes it is and the base must be filled with water or sand because the backboard is the heaviest part of the unit. It will fall if it's not filled with something.

not sure on the density, but I feel like I sink in but dont bottom out..if that helps at all. Im about 140 lbs.

This is not a waterproof fabric so I'm sure it would sink through and probably mildew/mold quite quickly.

Yes they sink. But be warned that they aren't very bright so you might not see them well under the water.

It provides the best support during sex. It doesn't sink at all, it is better than any spring mattress that I've used during sexylmpics. It hope that answers your question. &#128521;

Negative, won't counter sink. The hammer head never clears the barrel, even when fully depressed. I would have adjusted the depth of drive on the first go round with the deck nails. I'm afraid you may be left using a hammer and a nail set.

I'd guess no. It's heavy and curved in a way that isn't for laying on the long way. I haven't checked to see if it would float.

It appears solid to me. It isn't the heavy dense wood that you'd expect of an antique. It's light but solid enough.
