huon pine
The oil in Huon Pine is methyl eugenol and is about 7% by weight of the timber. It can be extracted from the wood by steam distillation.

Huon Pine as a soundboard
Correct Peter, They all work including Radiata, I note in another thread you mentioned with Radiata you said the problem with Radiata was sourcing the timber without knots I have just managed to source 60 tonnes with lots more to come from a 3rd generation family farm over 1 metre in diameter beautiful clean logs will post photos soon, I have an order for a twenty foot shipping container for to be used as electric guitar body blanks, who knows I might resaw some sound boards. Cheers Bob
