I think Cheers Thanks, I'll have to go back and see where you listed the materials used. Great looking boxes no matter what they are made of . Ok, I see what you listed. I've never heard of jarrah. Is that a wood peculiar to Australia? Edited August 12, 2018 by octoolguy John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarrah is a large eucalypt only found in the South West of Western Australia. It's a hard wood (I do mean HAAAAARD ) It's almost impossible to find in a board of any width over about 100mm (ex 4") now as the logging is strictly controlled. All of the big timber was cut down with a lot being exported. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
