I suggest using Sea mail. It costs me about $A50 to send a 20 kg box to Australia by Sea mail. You should not include wooden items, as Australian Customs will send them off to be fumigated at your cost. It takes from 6 to 12 weeks for your parcel to arrive.
I once sent 18 kg of unaccompanied luggage back from PNG to Australia, rather than tale it with me. After I added up all the Customs inspection fees, It would have been cheaper to pay excess baggage fees!
