AWC Left the surburbs behind for a
tree change.
Andrew moved from his rented
workshop in mid 2009 and is now operating from his very own fully
equipped workshop studio in Heyfield
(just over 2 hours drive from Melbourne
CBD)
Nestled in
the gateway to the Snowy Mountain region Heyfield is a small timber
town situated on the Thomson River in the wetlands of Central Gippsland.
Once home of eight sawmills, Heyfield has the largest hardwood sawmill
in the Southern Hemisphere.
Gippsland was once the home of the
tallest trees in the world!
You can't change the past - The future is our responsibility.
Victorian Ash
is just one example of a sustainable timber that won't cost the earth.
The furniture industry gives the timber fancy names like Tasmanian Oak, its not really an oak tree at all its an Australian eucalyptus tree which has gum nuts and flowers, its a totally different species to an English Oak which has an acorn.
I think
eucalyptus trees make beautiful timber, trees need to be understood and
respected
