: I wouldn't bother to epoxy seal or coat the box at all, just open
: both ends when you're done and let it dry out, the residual heat
: will dry it out pretty quickly. Plywood glue is already water
: proof. the box will probably hold up for longer than you'll want
: to keep it around.

T'wasn't me building it, but I think the problem with plywood is the heat, not the wet.
