    Default Wanted: Creative pieces for community exhibition - free wood supplied

    A WA community group I'm involved with is having an environmental exhibition in November and we would like to show off some creative pieces of woodworking made from local timber. The idea is to highlight the value of the native vegetation in the area by showcasing the beauty and quality of the local timber.

    Now I've got plenty of timber (mostly jarrah, some marri and wandoo) that I milled 4 years ago from large salvaged trees (otherwise destined to be mulched). I've used a lot of it in the house I've just built (wide floorboards, slab sills, etc...) and have lots of offcuts that would be great for turning an other finer uses. I'm happy to donate the wood if some other gents would be willing to create some fine pieces. There is some spectacular curley grain and lots of natural edging amongst the wood.

    Please contact me via PM. I'll try to put in so pics on the roleybushcare website.

    Cheers.

    Sorry I missed that. Haven't seen one of those in years.

    Would like to try some of that curly whatchmacallit wood, but doubt if we could afford to get it here and back. Good luck with your exhibition Paul. Am sure you will get some beautiful work to show.
