269307 "bilcol" <bilcol@b...> 2019‑10‑10 Australian Pine Questions
I've had a couple good-sized Australian Pine trees (US name) come down in my
yard recently in S Florida.  I believe the trees are known as She-Oak in
Australia and that they are not related to pines at all.  The wood is more
dense and has a reddish color.  Does anyone have experience with using the
wood for projects?  Wondering about its workability, how it takes stains, if
there are special drying considerations or other considerations.

 

Thanks,

 

Bill B
