    Talking Special delivery jarrah

    Just had a delivery from across the road where renovations have been completed I was promised some Jarrah step treads nearly 9 months ago. I had given up think it had been used or dumped or he'd got an offer he couldn't refuse.

    11 pieces plus the other 6 I had been given originally they are all triangular but large bits.

    A great score Ray! I always love seeing timbers getting the chance to be re-used, instead of burnt or buried.

    Why is it having good wood is like having money & family as soon as you get it they all want a bit.

    Pat I hear you "When" not till the shed is fully operational, new lathe is on the floor and first dust is created

    Scott master of Jarrah tables I may be asking lots of questions regarding the use of all the Jarrah bits. So if you do leave the country take a laptop.

    Idea's are many breadboards/chopping boards. Chess tables, coffee table's walking sticks, platters, Pen's (have enough Jarrah for that), bedside tables

    The fellow I got it off thinks so to Scott cost him $1600 for wood alone to replace the staircase again all Jarrah.
