Nyodine, i might just go out and search for some "snake wood"!
I agree, the mangrove forests have a stunning variety of character timbers, i have a beautiful floor lamp i made from a mangrove tree root and a crystal salt lamp thingy!

There you go...! you already knew about the mangroves so, the only thing you need to watch for is crocs, plenty of them living in the mangroves, ideal habitat for Barramundi, that's why...!

tnt treehouses, hello, I know its been awhile but I was wondering if you might still have any of those burls? This post actually landed me a membership on this site after finding it in a search. Very interested to talk with you.

As of yet,, I've no privileges to do anything other than post so I've been unable to contact you directly.

Cheers, Cliff
