DWSUDEKUM Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Very nicely done Rob. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Are they still cutting Rimu or is it no longer cut for timber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penquin Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Looks like Merlin knows the wood you are using. I will google it to learn more. Love the color of it and the depth of it when you give it a finish. Great looking cut. Thanks for sharing it. jim penquin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Thanks everyone. @DWSUDEKUM Rimu is protected now but small quantities are milled under permit. Generally I buy from an architectural salvage yard or find pieces at the local rubbish tip. The hearts have all been cut from drawer sides from an old chest of drawers. @penquin Rimu is lovely. Wikipedia has a good write up and google images has some great pictures too. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
