G'day,

The fella on this site was doing turning classes when I was up in Darwin. Did a couple with him myself in 2010. I'll be back up there more than likely next year. Ian had a heap of seasoned wood/timber in his shed so may be able to help you out with some burls. He is a good bloke too:2tsup:.

Brock,

Ian Mac is away and should be in contact next week. The burl sale supply in Darwin is very lean to non existent. If you have a chainsaw, you could do a trip down the track and hope you don't get nicked by the land owners or the Govt. Best to ask the owners first. The best burls around Darwin have mostly been claimed already. If you see Ian he will be able to put you in the right direction with woodturning and furniture timber info.
