Australian Blue Gum Eucalyptus is a dense hardwood that grows to large sizes which can produce lumber 6-12' long or better with widths of 6" and wider. It is difficult to dry; however, once it is kiln dried it is stable in service. You will commonly find beautiful basket weave figure in the wood. Small inclusions are common with this species. It is relatively easy to turn and takes a high polish despite its density. Fancy articles, boxes, and other woodworking projects are ideal for this hardwood.
