If you lived just down the road I could sell every bit of wood you have. Mine is all gone apart from some for personal use and I don't even advertise. Just family and workmates basically. A potato/onion grower of mine just got a permit to clear a heap of mallee so he wants me to cut it all up and he'll pile it up for me ready for next year. I hate to think how much there will be.
To give you an idea of mallee weight I ran a few loads of split eucalypt (similar to Redgum but not sure of species?) over our certified weighbridge at work and they went between 1.4-1.5 tonne. The mallee went 1.9 tonne in the same space It's similar to our Black Box in weight. Dry it won't float so is over 1000kg/m3.
Funny how you can get the wrong impression...i always assumed Mallee would be light....we dont have it in these parts so have never dealt with it.
Is it tough cutting dry ?
