Sorry to do this again but this one has me stumped (no pun intended). I picked this up from my local tree lopper the other day (SE Qld). Relatively dense and lovely dark heart. He called it Cascara but I’ve had a look on the web and according to google Cascara looks nothing like this. The piece in the photo is around 400mm diameter so it would have been a decent tree. Haven’t turned any yet but I should think it will turn up quite nice going by how it cut on the chain saw. Photo of the bark also included. I also picked up some nice pieces of Red Cedar, also shown, that came out of a local park. Amazing how pink it is when freshly cut. The piece here is also around 400 diameter and should yield a couple of nice bowls. Amazing how much it darkens as it dries.
Any ideas on the species with the dark heart?
