Photo 1.
Hi DSEL 74,
That lot of wood in photo 1 is to me, old SEC. State Electricty Commission of Victoria, Crossarms.
They held the Insuators that carried the wires/cables.
The bottom Arm show 2 Stains at approx. 45Deg. & that was where the Crossarm Straps went & then with a 5 x 5/8in. Coach Bolt went into the Pole.
The bottom White Painted piece, looks to me to be for a Guy/Stay, so as you could see the Wire, & not walk into it.
Most of those Crossarms wood be Tallow Wood.Regards,
issatree.
Have Lathe, Wood Travel.

Thanks for the info DSEL, much appreciated.
I've had a couple of dealings with the guy in Kinglake, he also has a business partner in Upper Plenty. He's a bit cranky and doesn't like selling bits and pieces as he prefers larger sales. His prices are a bit over the top in some cases. They have an eBay site: Add the Beauty of Timber. I'd also avoid Shiver Me Timbers, they're that expensive that you'd think everything is gold plated.-Scott
