If you want it to last forever - use the YELLOW Pine. The White Pine will be soft, but the yellow can be as hard as a rock. If you are planning to "work" it, the Oak will discolor, dry out, shrink, and warp. If you are keeping it outdoors, you won't like what the weather does to the Oak. Most wooden farm equipment was made from Fir or Yellow Pine.

at the very most 2 ton but usually less. Primary purpose will be horse manure. Have to figure out what yellow pine translates to here then.
