Wood can conduct electricity, but being inside and with strong signals you can get away with using it.

For any outside use you will need to use either plastic mounting or use insulating stand offs. When the wood gets wet it will ground out all the elements otherwise.

I like using Mclapp's 10 x 9 1/2 design, for me it gets the one hi-VHF station in my area without having a separate VHF antenna.
