I will be visiting Brisvegas this week and I have Wednesday PM, all of Thursday and Friday AM to do a bit of scouting for bow materials. I have work I can do as well but I'd rather be looking at exotic bow woods than sitting in the motel room writing reports on a laptop . My better half is doing a two day course so I can sneak out during the day
Can anyone recommend a supplier (hopefully close to Spring Hill) where I might pick up some nice timber please?
Any other recommendations for must see places in Brisbane would be useful too. Thanks.
Cheers.......... Rod

Yeah Lazarides usually has a fair assortment of woods but I haven't been there for a lot of years now. You better lock ya wallet up mate as it is very easy to spend money in places like that.

There is a place called "John Gill-The Timber Man" at Cleveland near my place, but whether they would carry what you're after I can't say. I rang them once and they told me they had a section for "Crafts and artisan work" Their words, not mine.
If you're interested send me a P.M. and I'll come up to Spring Hill and pick you up and we'll go and have a look if you like.

Lately, if life were treating me any better, I'd be suspicious of it's motives!
