This, or simply soak it until it becomes water logged. Boiling it if it is smaller may speed this process.
Depends alot on how big the pieces are some of the larger ones takes months to sink. I just about went crazy trying to get a 3' long by 7" tall to sink the last few weeks. I ended up screwing a 3 foot rubber maid lid to the bottom and burying the lid under the sand and it barley stays down.
zip tie it to a piece of slate. Drill holes on both the wood and slate and position it the way you want and it should sink. Thats what i have been doing.
i think i will try silicone, i work at a place with alot of quad / silicone, wondering if something like geocile or OSI quad or hm270 will work... Aquarium silacone is spendy at my lps

my wood - great title =] lol
simply put some big rock on top of it and if the wood is real ... it will absorb the water and finally should sink
