merlin Posted September 8, 2015 Report Posted September 8, 2015 Here is the plaque that Bob designed for me, and got me out of a tight spot. It's veneered mdf with a Rimu handmade frame. Rimu is a NZ hardwood this piece is probably over 500 years old and I have not a lot left. Thank you Bob.... ***Merlin*** amazingkevin, lawson56 and smitty0312 3 Quote

Thank you Bob.... ***Merlin*** Got to be someone very special to use treasured wood like that on.I'm in love with it.Wondering how you run across it and how long you've had it and what other special projects you've done with this rare wood of yours.Wish i lived closer so i could try and talk you out of some of it,lol Quote

merlin Posted September 9, 2015 Author Report Posted September 9, 2015 Thanks people those lovely comments. I may start to get a swollen head.. Kevin sorry mate no chance of any Rimu leaving these shores..Not by me any way. I have about 50 feet of 4x1 inches of very old Matia T & G flooring from a building that went up 95 years ago, so that timber when milled is about the same age as the Rimu. ***Merlin*** Quote
