Grey box perhaps......burns like iron bark. Better than redgum to burn.

That example you posted is full of cancer also known as burl.

Yup, I have two monsters like this. The smaller ones are all much better. I'm going to save the lower sections for milling I reckon. I saw a show where these yanks traveled all around finding burls to make things out of. Made some impressive things

I seem to remember we used to have one of those in the shed when I was a tacker, you had to turn the carby so the bowl was downwards when operating it, we could never get it to run properly probably because when I think back to what it used to do the bearings were most likely shot & the points gap would have been erratic, I don't know what ever happened to it, or the red 1930's Indian motorcycle that was in front of it!

Anyone watching the beginnings of a global financial unravelling these last few days?
I sure hope this is the reset I thought would have hit over a year ago. If so, and the central banks find throwing more trillions won't stick to the wall this time, it's going to be an epic ride down fellas.
Yeah, I sound like a prepper nut job, but please do get your stuff in order because whilst I wouldn't be surprised if they manage to prop this latest chaos up one more time, this will surely be the last time. Look out below.

Lol I liked Chinas reaction - just close down the stock market and hope its better tomorrow.
