Seal inside?

[Monty]

It's been quite a few years since I made any salt and pepper mills, and I'm also now making the nutmeg grater/grinder.
Do any of you seal the inside with lacquer or CA? My thinking tells me they should be sealed with something to prevent moisture from being absorbed from the inside. Any and all input would be appreciated.

My good friend makes & sells salt and pepper mills without sealing the interior. The exterior food safe finish is applied
to wood that is below 10% on the moisture meter.

The use environment perhaps plays into it . If yours considers wood at 14 % to be dry , it might be a good idea . Mine thinks 6 % is about dry , so no interior sealing needed .

Can not hurt to spray inside with some dewaxed shellac.

I never sealed any of mine, never had any issues
That I'm aware of

Thanks for the replies. Looks like it's not necessary.
