Hi guys,
I have some rough sawn blackwood that I'd like to swap for some planks of a lighter coloured wood, preferebly something nice.
The blackwood is in various lengths from about 1m to about 3m, 80mm wide, 25 - 30mm high. I have a few bits that I can part with.
Heres a sample bit that I planed and put some olive oil on - it is very nice (photos dont show the richness of the browns):

Depending on what you want to swap, I can plane some wood with my trusty hand planes to smooth it up for you.
Here's what it looks like in my garage

Theres some other types of wood in there too, if anyone wants some jarrah . . .
I dont want to swap it all, just a fewish pieces for a whiter wood to make a largeish contrasting toybox.
Im in Concord, Sydney.
