WOW. That is really special stuff. Amazing that eucs were ignored as specialty furniture timbers for so long. I want some - please!

The last pics of boards,due to bad light,were a bit bland..this is the 'true' colour.Every log was curly,and more still to mill
. B.T.W,this board is on the quarter...MM

MM methinks you are going to have withdrawal symptoms big time when
you finally give up milling.
Fancy not being able to uncover all the good stuphph and then not post
it here for the likes of me to ogle!!!
Best of luck with the retirement mate and make sure you have a safe and
happy festive season and that the new year brings all that you wish and
deserve.
