    Driftwood

    Hi All,

    Anyone know any decent places in Aus, preferbly QLD to pick up some decent looking and reasonably priced driftwood?

    LFS are all way to expensive.

    Cheers

    Go out and look, they're everywhere, doesn't really have to be already water logged, just means it'll take longer to sink and release more tannins.

    Give them a hit with a sandblaster to get the bark off and mostly any piece will come up nice. Might be handy to have a mate with a blaster too

    Just so we are informed, it is illegal to remove or displace any rocks/plants/wood from a national park.
