This wood has come from an old tree that was cut at and old Walnut farm once in existence in this area (Willunga area).  The person cutting is was the owner of the local timber mill that stop existing also more recently, in 2015.

The old fellow Bill, have had the timber of the whole tree stored on the back of the big shed for almost 40 years before I found it, it was supposed to be one of his retirement projects materials but like dozens of other woods types, he never used the and some were lost forever being in the mud/wet ground.  The mill did specialise in pine trees and its wood processing reason any other tree species cut by the old fellow, were put a size, either whole or slabbed.

The only thing that preserved most of this logs/limbs, was the bark that while still with it, was falling apart.  The moist soil did also create lots of spalting that appear mainly by black lines/veins.

Some wood is very clean and very firm, little or no spalting (spalted blanks sold on another listing) and this listing shows it well.

Turns beautifully and accepts finishes well.
