Where to buy timber
I've just started getting into box making. Where do people buy suitable timber in around the Brisbane area?
Cheers Bucky

Hi Bucky, You might also like to try TG Creations of Northgate (Trevor Gaskell) 0403 496 403. Has a great range of timbers and very reasonable prices. Have always been happy with my purchases rom him. Regards Brian.

Hi Bucky/Brian, Trevor Gaskell (TG Creations) left Northgate a couple of years ago and is now in Burpengary. Best to call him on 07 31420754. I bought some very nice huon, flame myrtle and clear silver ash off him a couple of weeks ago. He also likes to think he's a hotshot on a Fender bass guitar as well - he's actually a good player. All the best, Bill

I second Watts and TG. There is also Garde Timber in Moorooka.
Check Gumtree regularly as well. All of the best wood scores I ever got came from GT.
Cheers,
Luke

Hi Flaxton, Thanks for the heads up on TGs new location, had some great Huon from him myself, already have a good stock which I brought from Hobart 7 years ago but there is always room or more. Bran.
