OK this was the deal If you are in Brisbane Queensland Australia or can get to BQA I have some odd pieces of timber which as its approaching Christmas I will be selling, giving away, or even donating.
The stash is mainly QLD Walnut all off cuts, all rough sawn, (in most cases) and all various sizes and lengths
Included are some off cuts is two packs of Silky Oak off cuts, now my attempts to smuggle them to Kyogle or even Hong Kong failed so if your interested and can Take the Trip (good name for a song or a movie, cannot remember just what it was now. TBO (too bloody old) its all or some of it can be yours.
Here are the Pictures:-
In the raw
and another view
and the Silky Oak
Now I was going to post them all sideways but could not work out how to do it.
Also I had a power problem ..my saw stopped working? very odd

Thats gold mate, gold. If only I was down there Id take some off your hands , Im sure we would find some use for them on the farm in Kyogle. (target practice maybe??)
i cant make it to pick that stuff up but since were gonna be neighbors im sure you wont mind bringing it with you on the move buddy-LOL.
and what the hell is that thing in your breaker box,looks to be alien?
I am a bit uncertain as to what the pest is, possibly a rat, its actually a picture my son sent me after a service call, this is what he found, obviously been there for some time not sure if it died from being stick or sampled some of the 50Cyc juice.

Haha , thats gold and I know probably true. On a serious note if I could work out how to get a green card I,d come and retire in the USA.
Personally I would love to live California.
pottzy, let's analyze this conundrum. Why not get Santa to pick up some timber when he drops off the cheese slicer… you may need to wait for 12 months only for his return visit… unless you have been a naughty boy…

That's rc's way of saving shekels… he tried to think outside the square and when the circuit breaker broke he probably decided to eradicate a possum by replacing the circuit breaker with one… he probably forgot that organic material is not a primary electron conductor (unless you accidentally touch a broken power cord… point that out to the sparkies)... after all rc lives in Queensland (beautiful one day,,, Alzheimer's the next… QLD is a haven for retirees).
I got up bloody early this morning thinking there would be a que of keen WW lined up wanting some of these gems, but no even a single person appeared, I even saw an old clapped out car pull up thinking it was Pottzys wheels but that was not even correct.
I'd keep some of the walnut… If you ever get into toys, they make ideal wheels… if you follow some of htl and Dutchy's blogs about wheel making… and a good kerfing jig (if you can somehow get your hand onto one)... as a "fun" exercise you could churn out a few wheels that you may be make a few shekels from… maybe a deposit for that BS (not my verbal but a material BandSaw).
That would be some expensive lumber for me to come pick up. If your weren't 9500 miles away I would of stopped by already.
