But here you go, made from the Teak of RMS Arlanza for a lady in Australia, a slimline, Sierra & Jr gent. I made 3 so she can pick which she likes the best, one of the others will be going to the owners of the wood, the other Neil L is very welcome to for the auction if he wants it.

Thanks Jim, yes I did contact her & I've just emailed her the photo so she can choose one, though I imagine it's early morning in Aus right now.
