    made a "natural edge " bowl from a green , red iron bark log ,came out real nice with the white sap wood and the orange brown timber , didnt crack ether , i have some logs that are split in 1/4 sections and after 5 years are crack free , the stuff makes me sneeze like a "southerner in winter" ,

    Im a Rookie and own a few hundred Acres. I have access tu tons of Narrow leaf ironbark and another type. Also popular gim, Blue gum and i also have about15 blocks (400 x 500 x 300 roughly) Cedar. Wanting to play on an old lathe i was given. I usually carve so this is a different dimention. When lathing the ironbaek etc which parts of the trees the better to use? Heart/no heart, thicker branches, only the trunks?
