bob,
We all know they have all the good stuff down there. But what about some silky oak or Aust Red cedar?

Bob,
I live in Tassie and am always after Jarra, I have very little knowlege of the types of timber you guys have but I would go for the more heavily figured or unusual colored stuff,
Common timber down here apart from Gum (tas Oak) are Sassy,Houn pine, Myrtle, Blackwood, and wattle.
I would be interested in some Purple heart.
I read from a previous post that you were after some Huon, PM me if you like and we can problbly work out something.
