    Wingo, were have you stashed the latest haul? The last time I saw your wood heap it was full. Have you got an offsite shed?

    Default Open on Monday

    I will be in on Monday after 10. If the doors are shut, knock and I will emerge, covered in sawdust. We are entering the final week. Still lots of good wood to go.

    Small sections of North Am Oak
    Small red cedar.
    Kauri and hoop still.
    18 - 28 mm old old old kauri wall panel and architraves.
    Bloody oregon.
    Thin planks down to 8mm.
    Kelantis
    Stair rails
    Maple
    Table tops, aprons, legs
    Offcuts by the ton.
    Wood that I dont know what it is.

    A mass of antique kauri furniture just delivered on consignment. (John's favour to a friend) Warning - priced to meet the industrial antiques market and I cant give it away.

    Chuck out week coming soon. NO WOOD TO LANDFILL!!!

    Come on in.

    Regards Ken

    I was back again at this sale. I picked up some more Coachwood and other bits. I was considering in getting the rest of the Coachwood that were in lenghts of 10 feet and longer. I do not have a particular project in mind so just hoarding would be what I will be doing. The only problem for me is the transport home. Borrowed the brother in laws car but still has to go inside the car.

    While there another fellow came in and asked about the same thing that I was looking at. I let him have it as this person had also picked up the first lot of Coachwood. He is building his kitchen. I would love to see his project.

    I think I need to borrow a friend car that has roof racks.

    Last weekend Guys and Gals
    Still about 20 cubes of timber to go.
    After this I am making tables from all the wood I have scored from this project.
    Heaps of stuff being chucked out after Sunday, but the best will still be for sale.
    Come in anyway, just be sure to call ahead.
    To all those who have graced Marsden St with your presence

    Thank you

    Best regards

    I have been planing to come in on Thursday, as it turned out another meeting another long day at work.

    Now the plan is to come by on the Saturday, depending on when I finish work.

    Hoping early.

    Well I made it to the factory warehouse again. Met Carry Pine, and the first thing he said was seems that you are here all the time Christos.

    Well it is just that I need to get some wood as I did not have anything. Now I have few pieces, but really Ken is just so good to chat to. So there you have it the real reason to visit is to chat to Ken.


    And yes I did pick up some more pieces.

    You saw me there, Christos...

    .... the tall bloke running out the door with the 3" square Coachwood posts and the 150x 50 Silver Ash.

    Actually, I'm a bit annoyed... got the last of the, cheap, timber for my bench... and its too good to use, and too bloody cheap.

    Bloody Ken, he's created a conundrum, but a good one to be in.
    Cheers,
    Clinton

    Default Time off

    Hi Guys
    Well the sale is finally "over". Now we have to empty the warehouse. We will be open on and off for the next few weeks, Which means the wood is going to even cheaper and a lot of freebies from our "small" store of offcuts. I'm having some time off Sunday and Monday next, which means getting down to some real work and making up some tables.
    Red Ironbark, Sydney Blue Gum, Blackbutt, Red Cedar, Thick NZ Kauri, boring stuff like that. More splinters and blue fingernails.
    Call if you need anything 0411 381 244
    Regards Ken
