    Default Mail order timber to Longreach

    I have decided to make a jewellery box for SWMBO's upcoming 30th.
    She loves Blackwood, Huon Pine and Black Hearted Sassafras.

    Is there anyone I can contact to have some of this timber sent to Longreach in Queensland?

    I would need enough to build a box about 300 x 200 x 200 plus a lift out tray and dividers for inside.
    The timber will need to be oversize to allow for wood movement.
    Longreach is very very dry and the timber will warp so I will have to let it acclimatise and mill it to size later.

    For this reason I would like kiln dried timber.

    Cheers, Jack

    They were great to deal with

    I've used the Greyhound bus service to Longreach, reasonable price and a regular service!
