G'day All,
Does anyone know as to any lumber/timber merchant, in the S/E suburbs of melbourne, that I can buy some huon pine?

The Woodsmith in Lusher Road Croydon always has Huon, all depends what sizes you are seeking etc. Len's stuff is always good and dry but it is usually cut to suit wood turners, ie rounds and squares but he sometimes has boards of blocks for carvers
He is only open on Fridays and the first Saturday of each month, reopens after the New Year break on the 18th January.

best place to buy it is off the docs in strahan or Bernes mill at Lynchord who supply the retail shop on the docs, best timber and best prices...

check Huon Pine Tasmanian Special Timbers Tasmania (http://www.tasmanianspecialtimbers.com.au/)

or call and ask for some pics of whats in stock, better yet take a trip...

heres a few pics from a recent trip there about 8 weeks ago..

G'day Reeves,

Thanks for the advice, like I said I often thought about it. Once I do that I'll then drop in for a beer or 2.
