woodduck Posted February 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) Very nice work, like like the choice of the silky oak. Is that the same wood that we in the US call lacewood. No It is not closely related to the true oaks but is the largest of the grevillea family & is native of eastern coastal Australia & has golden -orange bottlebrush like Blooms Edited February 17, 2016 by woodduck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky2 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Peter, it's a beautiful desk plaque, the wood you used is perfect for a piece like this one. I do see where you made a small error and nobody has mentioned yet, so I won't either. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
