AUSTRALIAN BANKSIA PODS

Australian Banksia Pods

Banksia Pod Handle
"What the hell are those things?" you may be asking yourself. Well, despite their other-worldly appearance, these seed pods make for excellent turning material. They're popular for making handles, clock bases, and dried flower vases, among other products. The Banksia tree (Banksia grandis), which the pods grow on, was originally discovered by (and named after) the botanist Sir Joseph Banks, who traveled with Captain James Cook when he discovered Australia in 1770.

Note: These pods can create a lot of dust when turned, so good ventilation and adequate dust protection are essential. Also, the pods can be quite hard, so sharp tools should be used to work with them.
