recently found out that a friend of a friend runs a joinery, 'grab me some offcuts when you're there next ' i plead.
so this weekend he turns up with a small box full :mrgreen:
'but dont get too excited', he says, 'youve joined the bottom of the list'
so i recognised the oak, theres a few red sapele /mahoganyish handrail sections and what i thought was some larger ash lumps, but it doesnt smell like ash. maybe cos its thoroughly dried?? maybe cos its not??
what do you think?
also there are a few blocks of 'hardwood' that weigh next to nothing, not quite balsa but not far off, any ideas what it could be? looks similar to the 'ash' but without the grain.
cheers
