Hi from Canberra

[mickenglish]

My name is Mick and I live in the ACT. I'm building an aeroplane in my garage: a single-seat wood and fabric design called the Fly Baby. I'm also looking for a supplier of reclaimed timber for a pergola project.

Welcome to the forum Mick,

What sort of timber do you want to build the deck out of?

PS may I suggest you as the timber supplier question in a few forum sections to get a bigger audience and thus local replies....

Hi Mick, welcome to forums. One commercial supplier of recycled timber in Canberra is Thors hammer, but they are not cheap. http://www.thors.com.au/

Welcome. Sounds like a great project, building a plane.

In terms of recycled timber, Ilya's right, Thor's hammer is the best place to go. Not cheap, but good timber. I built my new deck from recycled spotted gum. Looks great, I'm really happy with it.
