Been reading it could be the timber of the future, good for decking, flooring, furniture, eco-friendly etc.
Untreated it isn't eaten by bugs. It's very hard, so can't be nailed once dried. Not sure if the poles are strong enough to be used structurally. We had an old tree and the locals cut it up with a chainsaw to use as roof battons. I'd expect there's a bit of it around.
Anyone have further info on prices and availability?
