Wood preserver made wood grey?

I'm making a bench and I'm at the point where I'm sanding it and treating it before varnish/oil.

I used wood preserver and left it to dry, but I've come back after a day and the preserver has brought out these grey/black areas on the wood. Especially around the little circles in the grain (not sure what they're called).

Why is this?

How should I fill in these holes in my basement floor?

Our 1917 home had a coal storage area when we moved in (complete with at least a ton of coal). There were four 2x4s sunken into the concrete with horizontal slats along the side to contain it all. We have since removed the coal and the wooden storage. Yesterday we finished clearing those holes out as they were filled with rotted wood chunks, coal, and misc debris.

Now we're planning on filing them in. But before I go dumping Quikcrete in, does anyone have any advice, insight, or suggestions? The slab is not level with the adjacent slab. There is a big chunk that is broken off and loose, but I would like to keep it if possible. The bottoms of the crevices and holes are dirt. We would like to be able to scrub the slab down and remove all of the layers of built up coal dust and other dirt. But I'm leery of throwing down water and cleaners with those crevices, especially now that we know there's only dirt under there.

Pictures with tape measure to give you some idea of what we're working with here.

Should I be worried? As the title says, making sure if I should keep trusting the process or raise a red flag. Understand some more cut pieces have to fill gaps, but biggest concern is the seeming unevenness at this stage… horizontal lines, some pieces jutting out, etc. Work being done by contractor, not DIY.

Feel free to talk me off the ledge (plz).

Can this be fixed? Have a lot of railing damage, mostly deep scratches and wear. Any recommended ways to fix this or make it look better. Wood is hardwood with a sealer, I can’t get paint to pe*****te. Original finish is a stain with a tinted clear on top. There is about 500 feet to do.

Color match help! I have an existing deck that the railings and posts are what appeared to be stained in a black finish. Several months ago I had to repair and replace sections of it and now need to match the stain to the original. My first attempt at going to Home Depot did not readily find an exact match. Looking at this picture what do you think? Is it a solid stain? is it’s black? Help me match this please.

Repurpose this as chicken coop?

A relative asked me if I wanted to have this old rabbit house.

We are planning to have a chicken coop and I am wondering if I could adjust some things here and use it for it.

But I fear it might be too small. Around 90cm height 90cm deep and 3m long.

What do you think?
