    Default Malle Root

    I have a large Jarrah burl about a 1 meter in diameter and 80mm thick, i want to make a table out of this and thought of mounting it onto a root structure like a malle root or similer, I dont know were in perth to find someone that sells something like this If anyone could give me some ideas of people they deal with in the Perth area or down Albany way.

    "There is a total of about 515 described species of Eucalypts. Of these, approximately 108 are Mallee eucalypts, 71 occur only in Western-Australia"

    Mallee growth in WA is mostly in the Gold Fields area, so a look in the Yellow Pages for the area (which should be available for view at any Post Office), or a couple of days wandering about out that way may be useful.

    Here, there are two main types, a 'red,' and a 'yellow' which seems the more dense. Have you worked this wood before? It breaks easier that it cuts. ......... and, it's not easy to break!
