I recon everyone is over reacting. You already have an 18mm pilot hole...the 19mm bit is going nowhere except straight down.....too easy.

Plinth? I think that you have the wrong term. are you after treated pine surround? otherwise known as lattice frame? has a squared U shape? If so Bunnings price seems OK to me

Mic-d you keep saying H3 treated pine.....you meant to say H4 right?:wink:

Sorry mate Just joking.:D

Don't new members have to have a certain number of posts before the can join in the scheme?

Yeah the angle is wrong for an adze, whilst the hole could be used for a sleeper dog puller but I doubt that it would have the leverage.

A shingle makers tool? general demolition?

Deni what tools did you use to make the bath ?

I'm on the Nth Beaches and have an old dead Swamp mahogany in the yard, I had the main laterals lopped and stacked but the trunk is still standing. The timber has been dead for at least 2 years so is...

Heres my take on it.
Anzac Day is a bit of a joke because it celebrates what was basically a tactical blunder that cost about 8000 Aust & NZ troops lives for purely political reasons. It also...

Its a miracle that you made it this far!:D

Have a good one.

Birch perhaps, by the look of the bark .....there are many species though???

Jake, the Flood companies SpaNDeck system does that. Use the power lift and then the dekswood cleaner.

That will get rid of the oils and tannins enough to get an even stain.

It may have gotten bored waiting for you to get back to work. You should have trained it to start work without you.:p

BD I had to get a totem pole carved about a year ago - well it didn't actually get built.....budget etc..

Sorry to pull up an old thread. I thought this might be helpful.

Northern box is a Malaysian timber - Tristania spp. A more correct name is Pelawan.

I'm just about to use it on some decks,...

Hi CP,
I don't give much of a toss about any of it to tell you the truth, partly because of the boring,repetitive, parochial coverage and partly because I think that to achieve that level of...

I would guess that it could be a Euc. sideroxylon...the one behind it a saligna with a maculata possibly behind that.

If it is a sideroxylon its a bit crook....:?

I looked at one the otherday..,thought it looked a bit junkie but I don't use the things.

I do have a few kincrome items though.....really really top quality stuff.

Should be very interesting wood.:2tsup:

Why have we got this thread in two sections? Will we ever hear from Sue again?

Sue unless you want the rustic appeal of recycled you may be better off with new but you will have to do the pricing.

Sterlo, the reason why you think music is no good today is because you are listening to the same old boring R & R that was originally produced in the 70 early 80's but is now stale.

Bob whats wrong with Creosote?:D


You can buy Koppers Endseal in spray cans which I'm fairly certain is LOSP as its clear (I think) they also have a spray on Copper based one.

And they're messy buggers with the amount of leaves they drop - not one of my favourites.

I wonder about that description of it being evergreen...I would describe it as semi deciduous.

I could knit a singlet out of my own chest hair....but I choose not to.:)
