hi all, after my failed request for knoty wood i did find something in the garden which was an old eucalyptus branch from my sister's tree that had been sat around for years.

 

i turned it into a ball at the branch union and realised that this timber would be ideal.

 

 

has anyone got any eucalyptus branches or trunks that is a few years dry with a heart wood 6" and wider.

 

please get in touch if you have.

 

i'll post an example of the turning when i find my camera.

here is the ball i turned yesterday.

 

as i was turning the union down the branch pretty much disappeared so i'll take straight euc as it's rock hard.

 

there is a bit of spalting i the sap which is too soft really but this one is a test.
