Tony ...you are pretty much right on the money (just need to find out what to call them)

Jeremy .. the second coral is almost all yellow and the only experiance i have had with tenius , well they both have had thin branches that extend ....this one is thick and knobby.

Eileen ... thanks , you know i never put 2 & 2 together , its sitting next to my other tenius and now i stand back and think.....oh yeah , that does look like the other one...duh ;D

I've actually been looking into a fragging saw. Ian had a pretty nifty wet/dry bandsaw. It is <200 by inland
