Stringy Bark isn’t usually known as a furniture timber, but for me it’s one of my favourite Australian hardwood species. It machines so well because it’s very hard. This mantel piece made by Timbered is a great example on how well this timber can add warmth and texture to your home.

Every piece of furniture I make has a story, this would have to be one of my favourites.

The furniture below was built from a tree that had to be removed to allow for a house extension here in Yass. (All approved). The tree was cut down over 5 years ago and was originally destined for fire wood. Luckily the guy who cut the tree down recognised the fiddleback grain and cut the trunk into slabs, milled, then stored in a shed to dry. In collaboration with my clients, we came up with the following that would get the best results from the timber and family needs: Three 6 seater dining tables, a waterfall console table and a live edge mirror from the slab off cuts. The timber is Blakelyi Red Gum, not usually used for furniture production, but in it’s uniqueness, with some resin to stabilise the drying cracks along with a fair amount of “fiddle back” grain they are lovely pieces of furniture to be handed down for generations.
I really enjoyed this project, especially the joy on my clients faces when they saw the completed pieces for the first time.

Just completed refurbishing this sewing machine hall stand and attached a live edge top.
If you have that rusty or small piece of furniture in the back shed that needs a new lease in life, send me a message and let’s have a chat about the possibilities.

Here is a recently completed bedroom setting. The stand alone bedhead and matching side tables are made from reclaimed Red Ironbark. I like working with Ironbark as it machines so well, and has a stunning grain structure. If you would like something similar to suit your liking, please give me a call on 0438 258 195.
