Cooee Graham thats as good as it gets let out a howl to the moon, Red Mallee at its best all the pen guys are crying just how many beautiful pens in there Tough. I was looking at a few ton weight of Burl yesterday but thats a beauty the finish is deep and the colour so special.

Red Mallee is so tight in figure, so distinctive it is highly prized and its getting hard to obtain in quantity now with the paddocks soggy and undrivable. I reckon the Burl getters earn every cent they get for this Superior Burl.

Keep them coming this site is all about the best use of timber.

Great platter, not easy to work it is a hard timber but well worth the result proves that.

Kind regards Peter.
