Howzit Div,

Here we go again with the latest instalment of wood porn from Downunder.

I managed to snag two small lots that I could fit in the boot of my car (Lot 81 &106), mainly Sheoak and some larger blocks for turning .

The prices on some of the stuff was the lowest I've ever seen. None of the large Jarrah or Marri slabs went over the $300 mark.
A number of the whole logs in the yard did not even get a single bid.
Sign of the times?

I'll post a few pics of a small bowl that I've managed to turn out of the Sheoak later.

Greetings

Stephen
