Thanks Paul, I have it all milled and stacked now, but I happened to notice that the bark was starting to tessellate. I think this one will have to be FOG wood. I just went and picked up a big blue gum branch that had come down probably about 500mm dia with a double heart in it have you ever come across this before?
