Thread: Another resource to help identify timber

I seem to recall this being posted previously, someone picked up on the Angiosperm and Gymnosperm definitions being the wrong way round, cheers seriola

Thanks.

With the amount of info it has, I guess you have to expect some errors.

And I don't hang out in this subforum and was too lazy to do a search so apologies again.

would no doubt be a swag of people who missed it first time around. There is a lot of useful info, well worth posting again, cheers seriola

Thanks Ern
Looks a useful resource.

Hello Ern,
Do you have any idea as to what has happend to this site? Been trying to get to it and I keep getting error messages. It was a very useful site with heaps of information.

How long have you been trying Joe?

The err msg I get is network or server down.

Was last indexed by Google on Jan 25.

I've googled on the title and it doesn't look like it's been moved under that name.

At one stage they produced it on DVD for $50 but it's no longer available.

Hello Ern,
I just tried today. I have a lump of wood that has two names on it. One name is "cherry", but the bark on the wood does not look like a cherry tree bark and the other name is "Exo". I googeled that name and nothing comes up. So i tried the the link as indicated in your thread and than I encountered that error. I looked at that side not all that long ago.
Many thanks for your efforts.

It was hosted at a URL with a diff name in 2009 so it may yet reappear somewhere.

this may be a long shot but check out the Exocarpus species, one of the common names include cherry. ie native cherry, wild cherry etc. and the Exo just shortened perhaps, worth a look, cheers

Hello All,
As it seems this lump is from a native cherry tree.

Many thanks and best regards,

Hello Ern,
I have tried to use that link again to the timber information side and would you believe it worked.

Excellent.

They were prob doing some maintenance or rejigging.

Thanks for the update Joe.
