    I've got a mate in a local lines outfit, he's been passing through some of the old aussie timber spreaders off the powerpoles as they've been replacing them - they come in chopped up and basically ready to go into the fire but it's serious timber. I haven't burnt one yet but I have a feeling you won't want two blocks in the firebox at the same time...
    Pengy and Micky Duck like this.

    Most likely Jarrah

    Could well be - but I did think Jarrah was red in colour, this is more of a consistent darker brown. An uncut length of spreader is about 2m long and weighs a heap. I should weigh the thing, its a heave to shift one.
