Whats the timber? Scrub that just seen you had it underneath.

We have a similar looking timber here called Rewarewa.

Muzza,
I think we should sympathise with one of our Oz cuzzies in his time of loss and pain.
Funny comment though....
Hopefully BAW has a sense of humour....

Mate - I have met the guy - had dinner with him and his missus some years ago - he does have a sense of humour ( and a short finger ...)

Here is an update to some timber I milled yesterday:

Dead Finish (colourfull red wood with hard useable white contrasting edge)



Redgum



Gidgee



Red Ironbark



Olive



Coolibah




Sample of color difference between 'Forest Oak" light colored timber and "Hairy Oak' a much darker wood.
