Need Pine

G'day all

Just a newbie but someone out there may be able to help, I make all kinds of small boxes out of 12mm dressed pine, at the moment i can only get 140mm wide i used to be able to get 170 mm but it's bit scarce mabye someone knows a mill in VIC that still supplies this width cheers.

G'day Chippy65 and welcome to the workshop.:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:

Don't live in Vic. So can't help there. Surely you could join pieces.

I suspect that the fires destroyed lots of pine plantations so it may be some time before you can get supplies.

Thanks mate have been joining timber but time wise not the go had two different mills making wide lenghts for me but they have both gone under which was a real shame the timber they supplied was top notch:(

Hi Chippy,

How much do you need. I have some 175 x 20 RS paulownia that I would dress for you that could be an alternative but in that width my supply is not great. Are you a commercila box maker or do it for a hobby.
