CLOSED - NO WINNER THIS WEEK

The four woods were in order:
1) Madorne Burl, which quite a number of people got correct
2) Amboyna, which also many got correct
3) Thuya, which no one guess this week.
4) Western Myall, and I would have taken Myall. One person did guess myall, but it was going against the Thuya. And a few people did say ringed myall, but it is not a correct name either, as there is no "figure" to the wood.

As for the hints:
1st hint was not really helpful for the third and forth, and did finish guiding people into the first two.
2nd hint was to try and direct people to Thuya burl, which has been here a few times
3rd hint, knife was in quotes, as someone had done a knife with thuya scales, and simomatra has done a myall pen posted here. Both were direct hints.
The 4th hint told people not to use "ringed" , specifically since the myall is not ringed.
The final hint should have sent people back to mb007 as he did guess myall in post 96, just in the wrong spot.

Seer came real close as well as turbowagon and mb007
Thanks

Now, these blanks do go into the prize bucket for next weeks winner.

Have a great day
