Personally I wouldn't be putting any divots in it, you will always see them. With the deep bits you could part fill them with glue/sawdust and finish as you've described with the coloured wax.

Oh the irony.



That's the reason why things are how they are. Tow the line, or else. Freedom has been strangulated because peoples freedom of expression has been stifled by #wits.

No, not really. As already suggested you can overcome this mechanically by making the timber thinner.

There is one other thing to be aware of;

There is a possibility that it is an old survey blaze. Back in the day significant trees were often used as reference marks to cadastral boundary corners. The most common ones the...

No worries Euge, glad you're enjoying the thread.

The drying continues;

And here is a piece of the wood;

It would have been easier to guess with some photos, however, I don't think Jarrah is particularly expensive so maybe $3000/m³ if it's not so bad and $2500/m³ if it's not so good. Recycled floor...

And as promised here is some air drying data;

Where it's going to end, who knows. I've looked to no avail, so I suppose it's a case of wait and see.

The surfaces should be dry enough...

LOL, it now weighs 4.540. 600 odd grams loss in 24hours. The pith has collapsed.

I'll put up a graph of the changes when I have enough data.

Wet density calculates at 1.075. I suspect that will start decreasing rapidly.

The piece I used was taken about midway along a thinner limb. It measured 0.106m x 0.106m x 0.429m and 5.175kg. ...

Nice.

Because it's quieter. Sitting at the wing is ok but if you're further back than that it gets noisier, also the aisle is quieter than the window.

Your first priority is making sure you're sitting ahead of the engines, can you do that?

The main reason I will leave them as logs, for the moment at least, is because of the strange pith. I would describe the pith as being gelatinous at the time. Things have changed somewhat in...

So the tree was cut down late last week and here are a few pics.

Firstly a nut that I was given that came from the tree.

I do have some, however I thought someone closer would be able to supply.

I'm happy to provide some, but it's obviously going to be a bit more postage wise, let me know how you go.

There's only 5.

Go to your local vet and buy a size 22 syringe needle and plunger, then go and buy yourself some liquid insecticide. Inject the insecticide into the hole. It's more than likely you'll puncture the...

I get what you're trying to achieve.

Why don't you just use a handline after the rod? I reckon it'd be much simpler.

Yep, I can certainly accommodate you on that one.

PM Sent.

I'll get some pics by weeks end I suspect, so I'll keep you informed Euge.

Well, I've got an update.

I was handed a seed pod from this tree and have subsequently found out that it's almost 100% certainly a Cocoa Tree (Theobroma cacao).

I would think that fiber glassed ribs would go along way to providing adequate supporting strength.

If you were using a whole sheet, or there abouts, I'd say ply, however you're not so I'd be...

Cool, nice idea.

This may be a stupid question, but can the battens be fiber glassed to the fiber glass sheet?

No i ishint
