I had a 4ft lighthouse made from cedar that lasted about 10 years. Event the string "railing" on the full circle walkway held up nicely. I lag bolted it to one of those 2" thick big round concrete blocks to keep it off the wet dirt and keep it getting knocked over....til the blizzards came and smashed it. I drilled a hole through the contrete to run the light wiring. We (the wife) picked it up somewhere in PA during a trip.
