    Default A little bit of milling

    Scored some small logs recently, just got around to milling a few today. Cootamundra wattle and Blackwood, not special but very usable. Have four more Blackwood logs still to mill.

    The Cootamundra Wattle may end up as guitar sides depending how they dry and the Blackwood may end up in a dining table.
