Hi Rickey,
I believe Mathews Timber in Vermont have some Ironbark in large sizes at present. You could try them. If you call them, see if you can get the Yardsman, Ian on the phone, otherwise ask for Mick Mash, he's one of the Honchos and will tell you what they have in stock

Regards,

Rob

Thanks Rob

Should be able to get you some rough sawn silver top for your beams from the sawmill at Millgrove that I usually do cartage for but it won't be KD.

Powelltown sawmill will probably have what you want, I do have to head out there one day this week, as the owner wants to see me about some cartage work and I could ask for you.

That would be great if you could DJ. Our architect is from Warburton so we have been up that way a few times. It does need to be KD though.

Regards
Rickey

How did you go DJ?

Sorry Rick, things have been crazy here and haven't had a chance to get out there yet.

Give them a call or email yourself, might be a week or two till I get a chance.

We need some 200 x 45mm verandah beams up to 4.8 metres. Also fascia 190 x 35mm.

Can anyone advise of somewhere in Gipplsand (preferably) or failing that anywhere in Victoria that sells this sort of stuff.

More details can be provided if necessary.

Looking at around 20 linear metres of the 200 x 45mm and 65 linear metres of the fascia

Thanks
Rickey

Hi Rickey,
Were you still after this timber?
We are able to get both these sizes in F27 seasoned Ironbark or Silvertop Ash.
We are located in Mordialloc, but can offer delivery out to gippsland.
Kind Regards,
Nick

Thanks DJ - just back from 10 days up the mountain mixing concrete. I will give them a call.

Rickey

Hi Nick, yes definitely still after this timber.

Can you give me a price per linear metre for both the 200x45 Ironbark and also the 190x35 Silvertop. Send me a message if you prefer not to publish prices here.

You say the timber is seasoned. I'm actually after KD timber that is DAR. Is that what you have available or is it rough sawn, air dried? (It may still be OK but I will need to factor in dressing the timber if necessary)

Thanks for making contact and look forward to hearing from you.
