    sorry andy, i've not done this yet but it is the very next job i have to do.

    when will you turn the Utile boards into tables? got any pictures in daylight?

    not fitted yet but i reused an old table top to make a desk for my nephew to do his GCSE's at in his room. was badly bowed so it needed flattening... some before and afters.

    makes perfectly good timber in my opinion and being such a wide tree will be good quality too. yes it may not be a decorative elm but you should be able to get knotless stock from some of it?

    these are some Angelim vermelho 5" skittle balls i've made.

    what section size are they? certainly not jarrah to my eyes. the other candidate is usually ekki but it's not that either. i suspect that it is a south american timber called Angelim vermelho, (Dinizia excelsa) which i have been using for my skittle balls. might be interested in them if they are the right size...

    might be able to do a top but it would not be a single board. more likely bookmatched.

    i have three large boards of whitebeam which is even harder that hornbeam if they would be of use. 3-4" thick i think.about 16"wide and 6' long. bone dry.
  11. se7enthdevil
    PM me the link. i might be interested.
  12. se7enthdevil
    What are you going to use them for?
  13. se7enthdevil
    oak all the way... Quercus robur is the most common species found in houses.

    remember this sucker i was asked to make? finally got round to the construction of the block in sapele. currently weighs around 35kg.

    message sent. does the gardener have any logs left?
  16. se7enthdevil
    for me it's ones that have a beautiful timber that gets turned into firewood rather than timber or turning blanks....
  17. se7enthdevil
    in all honesty he got some bloody nice stuff there didn't he... when dry it will actually make a pretty penny, for once...

    could be a nootka cypress (Cupressus nootkatensis) but i've never seen one with so many cones before.
  19. se7enthdevil
    turns beautifully that stuff.
  20. se7enthdevil
    that's the cenotaph.
  21. se7enthdevil
  22. se7enthdevil
    are they not big enough for saw logs?
  23. se7enthdevil
    i'll take any scab boards you make from it if you mill it...
  24. se7enthdevil
    WOW, that's worth milling just for the rarity of it. only had a 12" trunk but that split to hell. cover the endgrain with emulsion or pva IMMEDIATELY....
  25. se7enthdevil
    the design will be along the lines of this one... .
