    MM I won't stoop to begging or any other devious means to get some of this timber but I will lie, cheat, bribe, cajole and any other way I can think of to get some if it goes on the market. ....

    If you do sell any a condition of sale should be that the buyer has to post photos of a finished item it is used to make.

    Absolutely bloody awesome bit of gear by the way.
    Cheers, Ian

    Both are members of the Anarcardacea family, if my memory serves me correctly. In NSW we know it as Yellow Cedar. Nice stuff to work, very stable and easy to dry.

    Memory is quite correct RN. They are both from the family Anarcardiaceae. The family also includes Cashews and some other interesting genera such as Poison Ivy and the Sumacxs. Wonder if the figure in these trees is also similar to Mango?

    You seemed so authoritative, I thought you'd be quicker. Guess not. Sorry about that.

    Again ,if my memory serves, there are, I think, at least 600 species in the family. I cant imagine they would all be similar to Mango. Of course, as Im sure you know, Poison Ivy is a vine not a tree. Interestingly, their common bond is their toxisity to a greater or lesser extent.
