    I follow beaver_badger (Colin from Goondiwindi) and have purchased a bit from him recently.

    Tasmanianwoods



    There are many others and they all have great product, most of which gets snapped up fast from all over the world.

    I think you will do well on Instagram Log Dog!

    I’m in the process of designing a website via Wix, the issue with the internet based design systems is they are messy behind the scenes and make it difficult to have high google rankings and SEO.

    At the moment for me, it’s all I can afford to do as I can’t afford a web designer at the moment. If I have success with my little business I will save up and pay someone to build a proper site.
    Big thanks for all the info Cal
    Also for your positivity
    Cheers mate

    By the way Cal
    Kudos for using responsibly sourced timber
    Every log I mill is either storm salvaged or dead standing
    Without compromising on quality

    Thanks Log Dog,
    I also mill timber here in the Adelaide hills, only ever from wind fall timber. I have a few arborist friends also and they put aside a bit of yard tree for me if they think it’s useful. It also saves it from going up in smoke, not that I’m against anyone keeping warm!

    Cheers Cal

    These pieces were from a tree ( Acacia Celsa) that was blown over during cyclone Larry quite a few years ago
    The butt log was suspended off the ground hence there was little degrade
    Only milled in recent times and the wood recovered displayed wonderful figure
    The tannins also imparted some rich colour into the wood
    Well worth salvaging !
