In the endless quest for the ideal wood for various things, I have read lots of complimentary comments from US woodworkers on the attributes of Black Locust (Acacia) - hard, strong, stable, resists rot etc.
Does anyone know if this wood is available commercially in the UK?
Atkins & Cripps don't do it... Googling doesn't show anything that suggests it's sold over here. Shame - I know it grows here, and apparently lots of it is used in parts of Eastern Europe.
I hope someone here will prove better than Google in this case!
