Spoke to Gemma tonight and it is still available. I will try to get over there Friday morning, so if anyone else is interested in assisting/sharing send me a message.

Excellent, great to hear its not going to waste! Cheers Phil

Shame someone x2 is flying up to Turn fest next year they could bring a trailer load each one camphor one blackwood. (joking)

Go one Philly link a notcie to this thread over in sales/market section it might wake some of these old fellas up.

Big thanks to Phil for his time this afternoon......not to mention a nice stash of spectacular blackwood. I've never seem anything quite like it !

I think I have a day on the bandsaw tomorrow cutting bits up, sealing ends, etc., then sticker it all for drying.

Cheers

An enjoyable afternoon and thanks for the Red and I look forward to seeing photos of your work�� Cheers Phil

Great to meet you yesterday Phil, and thanks again for all the 'ordinary looking' timber. I enjoyed the camphor laurel aroma all the way home! Now to do the timber justice.

Great to meet up Johnny and thanks for the beers

Here's the first piece of work I've done with the blackwood Phil. Just a thin bit I picked up on the ground. Have planed and sanded with 80 grit and it already feels very smooth. Will finish with 400 which should be enough. I think a cheese board will best suit this piece. BEAUTIFUL!!

Nice piece Johnny, keen to see how some of the rich grained pieces work out

Thanks for posting this up originally Phil. I picked up the blackwood on Friday and looks like there will be some nice pieces in there. I wasn't able to haul all of it so there are still some smaller pieces left if anyone is interested - it will only end up as firewood if not.
