Please help to ID this material
Big hello to all!!!!
I have been reading lots of stuff here and find this forum full of great info.
Little woman is starting to complain that I've been spending too much $$$$$ on tools and staying up till 1am reading stuff on here while in bed.
she isn't getting much attention lately
So I thought I better make something soon.
she likes the timber which one of the boys used on the block (ch9)
i was hoping you could assist in identifying it
thank you!

Perhaps Marri or WA Blackbutt.

Geez, that's a hard one. Considering it might be local, it could be something as simple as Vic Ash or something like that. It'd be easy to select something light and apply a poly finish. Go to a timber yard, something like Mathews Timber, and look at what's available and go from there. Mathews is way better than Bunnings or Masters as they have a wide range and many sizes to choose from.
Good luck-Scott

Im pretty sure that hall table was made by Christian Cole Furniture in Melbourne and from memory was made from Blackbutt. Hope that helps.
