    That is a large saw for carving though most of the work is hand tools.

    I was watching a guy doing a commission at the Maleny wood show. He told me it was WINX and needed special attention due to muscle sizes etc. His only tool was a a battery Stihl saw with a bar about 12": very pretty to watch for a couple of hours (1/2 way through the carving).

    That would relate to about 1$ p.h.

    Name of lumber, for smoking shrimps(not for stools), probably something like Caridea ramenta or Ficus monodon & definately hopefully not "Pyrus calleryana".LOL. sorry just intoxicated by my vocabulary while labouring in erroneous suppositions=more LOL.

    Good, I 'd hate to think what shrimp smoked with P. calleryana would taste or smell like. We have them in our northern rainforests but I belive they are found elsewhere in the world so maybe not endemic here though native.

    cheers.
