Just right for a resin table but being Holly its surprisingly hard ,so we now have a couple of book matched pairs and a few other boards all for sale

Hi Jon yeah it does apply to all timbers but some last longer than others that Holly had been in the yard for at least 4 yrs maybe more 6/7 maybe so yeah lucky with it .

Had this Holly sawlog in the yard for some time; it had got buried at the bottom of a pile I’ve finally worked through but when I put it on the mill and took off the 1st slice I was glad it got left as long as it did…I’ve never seen Holly spalt like that before, pleasantly surprised!
