Looking for a Kiln dryed or Well weathered Log for a Wooden Dummy

[Lookinforalog]

Hi, I am looking to buy/barter a well weathered or preferably kiln dried Pine or medium hard wood log from somewhere in the Hunter Valley, NSW. I need it to be at least 56 " = 142.24 cm in length and 8" / 200 mm in diameter.
It is to builda Wooden Dummy / training tool for a martial arts school.
If anyone can assist or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it very much.
regards, Stewart

You should be able to get away with green wood for that. there is a section under the special interests forum regarding working with green timber, check it out. originally the training dummies would have been hewn from green timber.
