Gavin we used a chainsaw to rip it down into slabs, most of it is still stacked and drying . None of the slabs are brilliant they had a bit of rot in them . Yes one day I will make some display tables , first I have to get some trees worth displaying
.
BB ,you are right .with the internet said so , Its all in the way you ask the question . I planted some Blackwoods ten years ago . I'm planning on gatecrashing Wattos and Gavin's party in 100 years if you come I'll let you know how they went .
