    A good test of the system too. I may need to purchase things from Sydney (or Perth)occasionally and it's nice to know I have a specialist courier network in place, ready to spring into action at a moments notice.
    Chris i'll send you a pm. And I'll put my hand up to cover the Singleton leg of your new saw

    Damned if I know but then we didn't do it that way. I had a wire cage parked at PWS and they filled it with all the offcuts and then I had it brought over via Oz Post. It is a little known system but then I work for them. The only limit is the net weight of the timber can't exceed 500kg. The price is per cage BTW not what is in it.

    A metre high pallet of Jarrah (1100x1100x1000) weighing 850 kilos would be about $450 freight coming from Perth to Villawood, and would take about 8-9 days. That's not too bad actually, about 53 cents per kilo.

    Just sayin'.........

    So as to get the thread back on track am I picking this up from Ray on Sunday and then to Skews girl or NZCarver or Sawdust maker ?
    alternatively I could give it to Groeneaj to send via Darwin.
    another alternative would be to send it to Hawthorne, California to anyone with a Shipito account, takers? Pmcgee perhaps?

    I can get it to Penrith one day next week. I might be able to impose on Felder to hold it for someone to pickup, does that help?

    Well lets see, everyone has offered good solutions but they've all forgotten to allow for the cranetruck with soft slings to handle this precious cargo
