Hey guys,
Ok, so I am planning on building a platform for a tank I am setting up. I want it to look a little natural so I want to use thick branches from the bush and cut them in to equal sizes so that I can use them for legs on the platform. But I realise that because it's Australia, most wooden things in the bush are eucalyptus but I have read that it can be bad to use? Is this only if it's fresh? Can I use it as long as it's a dead branch? I know I'll have to boil or put it in an oven to sterilise it but I just want to know about the eucalyptus part. Anyway any tips are appreciated.
Thanks
