haha... slightly incorrect there, the lengths on the floor are to be milled by the customer (it think).

 

There was a bit of nice colouring there.

 

Any idea why the colouring was so deep?

I assume the trees were just heavily infected (if thats the right term) with beef steak fungus, which i think is what causes the colouration.

 

Im sure Hama will be along to correct me if im wrong!

[Rich Rule]

just googled it...

 

correct :thumbup1:fungus turns the normally pale colouration of European Oak a dark brown colour.
