    Oldest wood availalble.

    Just found this site via a friend on FB. Incredible wood must see to appreciate. Not selling anything myself just a great site with awesome wood.

    Imagine 1200 year old wood that has been buried for over 50,000 years in your hands....Does not get much sweeter than that.

    That is some beautiful wood and an incredible story of it's age & how it's harvested. However, at $40 per bd ft, I don't see myself making any Christmas ornaments from it this year.

      Priced like Koa is here in the Islands. Sometimes I think some woods are worth more than gold or oil.

        A little cheaper down here for ancient kauri. I am paying $54 for one metre of 200 x 100 (8 x 4) which works out at around US$5 per board foot if my maths are correct. Check out the NZ website for the American supplier at

          Talked to him yesterday after he was coherent. Very fortunately, it was dc current. He said ac current and would have ended differently. And it wasn’t a house.

          Wow!!!! That is beautiful. Super job of sawing. If I worked it out correctly it took you less than a minute for each opening especially when I look at the amount of time it would take to saw the outline of the bear. Garry
