    Toni,
    If you upgraded your profile to indicate where you live, you might get a response. Unfortunately Aus Post is a killer sending wood now.

    Try your local salvage yard. Old house framing timber is usually Ironbark/Ironwood plus they often have some Northern Silky around you can get pepper grinders from. Also check you local wood clubs & Mens Sheds.

    I also have plenty of timber for pepper grinders, let me know what you are after and I'll give you a price via PM

    Hey Toni, I'm currently moving house and will be getting rid of some wood that is too small to be useful to me (as well as some bigger stuff). Welcome to come and have a look. Fair bit of neem, some white cedar, spalted tamarind and Cassia fistula (golden showers/indian laburnum tree).
