Timber Milling

[Robert Sexton]

Well done Jack, the principle of using your local expertise can be applied to the rest of Australia to use the local timbers, we have an abundance of very good local timbers. If you are really dedicated then to source an exact species may be the go ,but for most of us local timbers will serve the purpose well.
I mill( Lucas Mill) and machine my own timber for resto work,cabinet making, house building etc. You have a very good selection of timbers from the east coast that can replace most of the European and North American timbers,very lucky indeed.
Your local timber miller will be able to identify and advise on suitable timbers, do it now before we have to get it "from somewhere else"
Good on your timber man for buying the old machinery before it was scrapped and putting it to its useful original purpose.
