red gum for furniture
hi me and my brother were having a look at his new house. He had the option of a couple of nice dinning room tables but neither are available yet..
So where looking at our options regarding making one. His choice of timber
is red gum. can any one please tell me where to get some of the appropriate quality red gum? Also Do you think its a good choice for a family dinner table?
thanks aaron

Redgum available
Hi Azzrock
I have a good supply of dry redgum in slabs and boards, from natural feature grade to highly figured. All boards from each log are kept together for color and figure matching in 40 and 50mm thick. Slabs are 60mm thick, in single piece or bookmatched pairs up to 4.0m long, dried minimum 5 years. I have a good supply of 100, 125 and 150mm square legstock, all dry, milled 8+ years ago.
I also have a 10 seater, single slab table from a premium grade slab I had professionally made for a photo shoot sitting in the shed, as well as a fully constructed base ready for someone to just add a top. Both are for sale.
I don't advertise or have a web site, just a shed full of beautiful timbers that I have milled over the past 14 years from Victoria and Tasmania.
I'm not sure how to PM you with all my details, but can be contacted on 0417845224. The timber is located at Rochester, just south of Echuca.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
James.
