| Description |
|
Karri has a natural resistance to decay. The wood is reported to have no discernable odour. Karri is very difficult to dry properly due to its tendency to crack or warp when the process is rushed. This particular species has a propensity to move over time with changes in temperature and humidity, and as such should be used in areas with a stable climate.
