Forgot to mention, I am using red gum wood and saw dust for the flavour and its easily procured out this way. gunna be fun experimenting with all the different wood types I can get around here, lots of fruit woods, plus natives like red gum, red box and different mallee varieties Anyone know if you can use citrus wood for smoking, or will it be too oily for using ??

All I can say is OMFG, nice smoke flavour right through, little hint of spice/sweet/savoury, good Lordy hellalulia

Yeah mate, havent had anything done with them for around 10 years but still apples on most of them most years. Fair bit of black spot but should be OK for cider if you want to give it a go.
