These were from the same flitch ...MM

You really know how to rub salt into the wound.

Hi MM. Stunning as usual.

Wondering about the dimensions of those last two sets of 1/4 sawn boards.

Are they 150 or wider, and longer than a meter?

Do they already have an owner?

How long till they are on the market? (i assume they are still fairly green.....)

Thanks, Steve

These ones are only 100mm wide Steve...there will be wide quarter sawn stuff in due course...the logs were down for donkeys ages and there doesn't seem to be much moisture in the boards...they will season out rapidly...MM

No worries. If you pull out anything 150 or wider please let me know.

The rough diimentions would be wide stuff at 150(+) x 900 then some slightly longer narrower boards - say 80 x 110.

I think a silky one of these would be nice!

Geez MM, you sure know how to tease a bloke. Looooove the patterning, drool drool. Couldn't find a smiley drool

Nice patterning on this pair...MM

Little wonder woodies love this stuff ...these came from a chunk that was years weathered and left to rot in the paddock ...heaps of fiddleback through them too...MM

Medullary rays at their best!!!

All gorgeous MM!! Just makes me drooooooooooool!!

Now, have you finished with the teasing or is there more???

So where was that when I was down there??????????????????

Seriously though, Lovely stuff.
