Lysicarpus angustifolius is not commercially available the few pockets of this timber are locked up in state forests in Sth West Queensland. The ringed version I have never had before or since obtained from a world timber special interest member yrs ago. He is now approaching my age and limited in his field trips these days. I had collected heaps of great stuff for Paul but that got confused so they are now dispersed bar a few will post one of Budgeroo Burl even as rare later this week.

Superb Peter it amazes me the timbers that you show . Your craftsmanship in turning certainly makes the exotic timber stand out and as always your photography skills shine through.
