Thread: My Timber Reference Books Including Aust Timbers V1 & 2

Gday Fekit,

Are you interested in selling just the 2 Australia timber volumes? I’d be really keen on those and have been looking for a while. Thanks very much, Josh

Hi Josh, and also to those who have sent PMs asking if I will split up the book sale.

Absolutely no problemo, the sale is plit

Australian Timbers Volume 1 & 2 - $225 plus $25 p&p.
All the rest - Free

I realise that there was a sale of these two books 3 years or so ago on this site. That price is nearly $70 dollars less than I bought my books for, so put the idea of that $100 or so out of your minds.

The simple fact of the matter is that this is a bargain. And it's a bargain because you can't buy them, in fact I just tripped over a couple of hens teeth walking over to pull them out of the book case

I’ll take it. Pm incoming

Safe to say we can call that one sold. Enjoy those freebies too mate.

Thanks mate, tried to pm you but your inbox is full

Cheers
Nathan

Inbox is clean now mate.

Doh.

Fixed now.

Probably.

Hard to find & collectable, LOL, and then some.

$225 plus $25 p&p. Less than I paid for them, just sayin.

Slightly off topic.

I knew Ashley Sewell for a number of years, sadly he passed away a month or so ago. One of those guys, when they die the world becomes a little bit darker. Did a lot of work for him and his wife on there house and the daughters extension. It's a crazy house. Being a forester he had good access to all sorts of wood. The floor boards on the second floor are 50x250 gum and the joist were 75x400 douglas fir. Most of the house was made from some devilish hardwood. I bought a huge, and I mean huge (over 4 cubes), amount of NSW Rosewood off him a couple years back.

To be honest I didn't really know Ashley, but I do know that's an extraordinary amount of knowledge gone. RIP Ashley J. Sewell.

These items are sold.
