Popular Post Rob Posted May 23, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 First one is from a pattern by Sam Custodio and is I think native New Zealand Matai. Then one from our very own Bobscroll but no idea what the timber is And finally one that I don't remember where I got the pattern but in native New Zealand Rimu. All timber is reclaimed from the side panels of old drawer boxes and finished with 50/50 BLO.

Hi Merlin, These are cut from drawer side panels, not ply. I don't know if Matai was ever used in furniture construction but the first one doesn't seem to be rimu and is much harder and denser which made me think of Matai but I am guessing!

merlin Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 You may be right never heard or seen in furniture, then it's the color of the piece. Most Matai I have and some on my floor, (looking at floor boards) bugger you could be right some Matai on the floor has some coloring like your piece. I have some 100 plus year old flooring board that was given me a while back and all heart no sap. Now I'm confused, bugger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
