Here in Tasmania, we have sawmills that have literally MOUNTAINS of sawdust from the milling that they are happy to give away-it is eucalypt sawdust but i used it in my 'experimental concrete work' and it was ok- in fact, the concrete work i did 5 years ago still looks new though i wondered at the time if the eucalypt oils would interact poorly in the cement chemistry? ( such useful stuff, sawdust- brilliant for composting toilet system as well!) Otherwise try carpenters/joinery workshops- theirs is 'curlier' but would probably still work?What i would REALLY like to try is hemp fibre- so far can't source it here but i reckon hemp would be even better as no forests have to get cut down to produce it! I am living in hope of being able to buy 'animal bedding' hemp fibre but so far no joy there.

For timbercrete you use wood shavings instead of paper. In Australia they are building houses with timbercrete blocks.
