KAURI TIMBER FOR SALE

Neil from Thorndon

I bought this Kauri timber about 50 years ago after the original Gear Meat Works in Petone were demolished. It has been stored in my garage since then, though l used some in restoring our home back in the 1980's.
There is about 25 lineal metres of Kauri and it is 12" wide and 2" thick. (300mm by 52mm)
The image shows this timber in its machined and polyurethane painted state, over forty years later and untouched since then.
Kauri is perfect for creating custom furniture, panel doors, moulded architraves, skirting, kitchen cabinets etc. No nails, very few holes, this is clean, old timber, milled 150 years ago.
I'm selling the whole lot as one package so please don't ask for small lengths. Kauri has been unobtainable since the 1940's and long lengths like these are very hard to source.
You can reach me on 027 499 1212

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? πŸ’°πŸŒ²

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
