    Default Tiger stain Peppermint

    I had a nice find today while out cutting firewood. In amongst the logs of Peppermint ( I think ) , was a short one with fungal stain right through similar to what tiger myrtle has. I ripped it up into blocks with the chainsaw. There was a fair bit of rot in the log but I managed a fair amount of solid stuff. I think it will make really nice box lids etc.
