Title: Holly
Post by: malcy on April 25, 2020, 10:27:11 PM

Anyone know where I can get hold of some good white holly? Smallish pieces are ok as I need it for segmented vessels, but it must be white not greyish or brownish. Thanks.

hornbeam might be a better timber to use. doesn't grey up as much.
