I just got customs info for Australia. I can't bring any wood in. Not even things made of wood without passing special restrictions, and treatments. I guess that is a good rule as many woods, especialy from southern USA, can be bug infested. When I bring mesquite back to Minnesota, in spring, I put it in the freezer for 2 weeks. That teaches those bugs not to hitchike with me. I would have liked to bring some mesquite along to trade with All You All.
I will have to find out if I can bring wood from there back to the USA. My wife says I can throw all her clothes out and use her suitcase if I let her go shoping when we get back to Los Angles. That could be expensive wood.

Can't help with taking wood out- you'll have to check with your customs. Manufactured goods( turned) might be ok.
I have a huge number of hoops to jump through even if I want to take soil of site in an infested area.

Jamesy.
Our regulations are harder to find. I will give the web another try .
I guess I will just go along with the regulations. Whatever they are.
Then my wife can keep her old clothes.
As we say here, "THAT IS THE WAY IT WAS GOING WEST"
