Guys,

I have been tasked with building a bucket load of plantation shutters, two houses worth, 20 odd windows. The payoff is i get some new toys to play with. I would like to get hold of some basswood, does anyone know of suppliers in Brissy, i would assume Lazerides but would prefer to try elsewhere if i could.

Cheers,

Bakes

I cannot offer help re the basswood but have you thought about Paulownia. Port Phillip Shutters specialise in shutter kits made from Paulownia so it is a suitable species.
I have a small plantation of Paulownia and a band sawmill just over the border in NSW. I can mill to specific specifications if you can wait a few weeks for the timber to finish drying. My web site has contact details and pricing for the standard sizes I produce. Have a look at the site as the price is very reasonable. If your interested e-mail me and I will phone you to discuss the matter further. use a browser to find the site quicker it is
