I have been fortunate enough to clean out an old house door manufacturing workshop. (belonged to my wifes uncle who has recently passed away.) They shut the doors about 30years ago. The place is as it was but has 30 years of dust. Found lots of Silky oak, qld maple, cedar, and what appears to be blackbean. Most is roughsawn, the blackbean is quite stunning once dressed. Has anyone used it for ukuleles???
Also I am able to get the tooling. Thicknesser, bandsaw,12" jointer, spindlemoulder, There is also a Wadkin Mortise and tennon machine. Lots to restore here.
 
Pity you are so far away Pete.

Thanks Liam. I will definately keep that in mind. I am going to get them all out. I can`t let them go to scrap.
