Free Oregon to good home
Yes just what it says.
We are currently replacing all the fascia boards on a property in ringwood north Melbourne Victoria.
Some of it has rot on the corners .
But I would say there is still plenty of good boards still they come pre nailed lol and painted .
I would imagine you would be able to get up to ten lengths of 3000/200/30 mm out of it approximately they don't have much cupping.lots are in great condition still.
Great for a bench shed shelving what ever you want .
We are on site till next Friday the 16th May,
And can provide power if u want to cut them down to fit trailer roof racks during business hours .
I don't want them my self for the only reason that I just don't have the room .
Other wise I would take them .
It's not a grade gorges timber but there is some good stuff if your pre pared to de nail and rip cut to length .
Be a shame to put it in landfill.
Sorry for crap pics .
What you see in the pics is about half I what is coming off the house .
We still have half the house to strip off.
Mods if this is in the wrong place please move it and my apologies
Pm if your interest
Matt

I'd be able to use that for sure but my brother has just been diagnosed with terminal cancer and I have to head to Sydney, his twins will be coming back home with me and cant see any possibility of heading south before mid June now

I can't stand it! Someone please take it so the rest of us won't suffer by having to look at all that lovely timber and not being able to get our grubby mits on it.

We pulled more off today
There has to be a least two good benches in there.
It would be a real shame to take it to the tip.

Hi Matt,
I could probably use a trailer-load. Not sure when I could get it though. I doubt I could take the lot but happy to to take what I can use. I will PM you my contact details.
Cheers

It is good to see that this timber has not completely gone to waste. Well done Matt(Simplicity) for bringing this to the attention of the members of the forum.
