Yesterday, a tree lopping gang were hard at removing a Eucalyptus tree nearby, so I was able to obtain 2 logs from them. The size & the type of wood the logs are I read is not ideal at all, however I'm keen & wanted to get started immediately. This one took about 8 hours to do. I think his nose looks funny (a Frenchman's moe) but what the hey! I will chip into the other log sometime this week. As I reside in a subtropical climate, there are palms everywhere, can't wait to try a palm :sheckymug: Anyone else from Australia? http://frondly.com [ Edited by: gibgib 2005-12-24 06:18 ]
