    Default Back into timber

    Alright so in 2012 I sold my Lucas, mill-less for about 3 months then towards the end of the year received my hydraulic Wood Mizer. I was getting ready to have a big 2013 milling when I was offered a full time job teaching. After nutting out the mill on weekends and holidays I am ready for a big 2014 milling. Started of pretty good and look forward to reading your posts and having a chat.
    Hopefully I can work out how to put a few pics up of the timber I've milled lately.

    Cheers
    Rhett

    Amazing grain and colour in that jarrah. I thought it was blackwood at first.

    Whooops, I knew that. Thanks Nifty, I must have forgotten. I heard an oversea buyer was at the auction and BOUGHT every burl, not waiting, just bought every lot. I heard a few people were a little disappointed, the Chief Scientist from FPC was there and was informed of the goings on
