"I've used a lot of imported timbers that are softwoods that come out from all over the world, and they don't stand up. They shrink, they buckle, they swell. Whereas with Tassie hardwood, you know it's gonna shrink, but you know that. But it's gonna silver off and harden beautifully. They say if you eat from your area, it's a lot healthier for you, and I think your building, if you're using materials from around the area, isn't that making a healthier building?"
