I think it used to be a bit more "agricultural". I only found that as I was researching what to build kid friendly garden furniture out of (the off cuts if which I think @hugo7 is talking about). I certainly wouldn't be making any chopping boards or turning any bowls out of it.

It was my Dad who told me about it 30 years ago. He worked in the parks department at the time and had a lot to do with playgrounds and groundworks in general. I guess the formula could have changed in line with modern rules.

Like you say, I probably wouldn't whittle a spoon from it to stir the bairns porridge :)

Formula has definitely changed here in Canada, no longer contains Arsenic or some of the nastier copper based compounds. I still avoid unless absolutely necessary though.
