Slabs of salvaged huon pine wait to be milled at Wilderness Woodworks, a specialty timber mill in Strahan, Tasmania. The tree is native to south west Tasmania and highly prized for its fine grain and natural oils that resist rot. Trees grow for several thousand years and are some of the oldest living organisms in the world; it is illegal to cut living trees.
