    Default Blackwood from the fire heap

    Just thought I'd share this ugly bit of wood salvaged from a fire wood pile.

    I can swap a couple of pieces of pine for it so you don't get cold.

    Dave, Beautiful timber...One must always be on the look out for old timber to clean up and recycle...
    It reminds me of that ugly looking branch you helped Ray turn into a beautiful candle stick holder - Australian Cedar.....
    Good find...cheers, Peter

    Wow! Our wood shed for burning has 2 piles one for burning and one for turning! No Blackwood in ours though.

    You obviously didn't see the 15 or so logs I had here . Perhaps you need to reconsider coming up again
