Gary once in a lifetime you get a new respect for so many timbers one such is Red River Gum it is a remarkable tree yielding some of the most outstanding colour and strength. I have a friend a master of timber getting, knowledge and ability who shewed me an eight feet across felled tree of this timber in his farm paddock been downed for twenty years completely full of burled crimped deep red timber. Your pen gives an insight into how beautiful the timber this tree can produce. No two trees are the same. Thanks for showing.
Peter.
