Is pine suitable for pepper mills? How should the exterior or the interior be finished? Experienced thoughts please.
Thanks

I have never made one out of pine, but I don't see any reason why not. The only bearing surface that may wear is at the top and I don't see that as a problem. Just make sure it is very dry and no pitch pockets that may leak into the pepper. The tighter the grain the better. Use sharp tools and ride the bevel to minimize tear out.
