    STOP DOING THIS! This is just animal cruelty, and madness can only take one so far!

    Fortunately postage is probably a killer... (but then...)
    Some give pleasure where ever they go, others whenever they go!

    Wow, that is stunning figure. Is this Queensland Blackwood? I've only ever seen figure that good in Tasmanian Blackwood - though I have had some lovely Queensland stuff from you in the past. it isn't normally this intense.

    Yeah, this is more evidence for my theory that gnarly old sunshine coast paddock blackwood is pretty similar to tassie stuff! I think sometimes (not always) the tassie timbers benefit a lot from their name...

    The species is Melanoxylon...same as Tassie Blackwood
    Australian Blackwood is my preferred name for reference
    The Sunshine Coast provenance certainly produces quality Blackwood although growing form is often compromised in terms of size and shape
    Pretty stuff all the same...MM
