   thanksall,
   Here is one source...it's up here in Boston. I'd be curious as to the distributor of the teak and if someone is closer to you.

   Thanksall, this is one of those questions that screams for you to put your geographical location in your profile.  Found under "My Forums" (above) then "My Profile".

   I probably should have been a bit more specific on my last post----this is not for a marine environment. The customer wants the "look" of teak in their kitchen.

   People vary in the amount of info they're willing to share, and many of us think the things Prospero asks for (such as your astrological sign) are pretty darned silly, but geographic location is a key item.

   Contact M.L. Condon in White Plains, NY. They supply many marine shops and will ship.
