Anyone know what wood this is?

[Chris Sheppard]

I'm going to buck the trend and say my gut feeling was fir of some sort.

 

The way the bark's come off, it's texture where it's torn, the darker middle, the texture/colouring of the bark and the open rings reminds me of a big silver fir we dealt with a couple of years ago.

The chap who asked the question knew all along what it is and no corect answers yet.

 

Keep guessing

Mimosa?

[Woodworks]

Ha thanks, don't think I can get all the credit as Steve had the right guess with Acacia dealbata

I don't think you should get any credit, as Steve was spot on first time round! 😝

this is the problem with common names in my opinion. if i had said either silver wattle or mimosa which are common names for this tree then i could have been referring to about 50 different species that commonly use it in their name.

 

i use genus and species to avoid any complication.

 

 

anyway, i want all the credit:001_tt2::001_tt2:
