    It's the easiest of the Casuarinas to work with, too. Pity those darned wood-munchers like it as much as I do! The last lot I had was the nicest I've seen, but there was so much insect damage in about 60% of it, I struggled to find pieces big enough to be useful. Are there areas where it doesn't get so chewed up??

    Cheers,
    IW

    Hairy Oak, Bulloke, WA Sheoak, River Oak, Beach Sheoak ….. all turn nicely. Darn shame that they have a few issues, insects, cracking, collapse (Beach Sheoak). Almost my favourites, behind the Flindersias though.
