6'6" Banksia Single Fin

Just reloading some content as my old blogs have disappeared.
This is one of my favourites.
Beautiful Aussie Coastal Banksia

I always spend a bit of time figuring out the best way to go about slicing up timber.
Grain character on the face usually varies significantly from that on the edge, especially with open-grained cellular timber like this.


In some ways it's not dissimilar to Silky oak but a lot softer.
I can see there is going to be issues to overcome.
