Kauri or Rimu framing for carving projects.

James from Grey Lynn

Hi neighbors - Another wet weekend so I am working on some small carving projects. But I realize I am running low on timber. If anyone has been doing house reno's and has some old Kauir or Rimu framing around - like that shown in the photo, I am keen to pick it up. Shorter lengths are ok as long as they don't have too many nails in them - wrecks havoc with my chisels! 100mm x 75mm or larger dimension is ideal. It's wonderful dry timber to carve and too good to throw on the fire! Many thanks.

Poll: Should our summer school holidays move to February?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's a debate that resurfaces each year as weather hits its peak just as kids head back to school.
Traditionally, we've paired the school holidays in NZ with the Christmas period, but would a shift to February make more sense for everyone?
