Huh?

Found some photos (although not too decent) of this model. Better than nothing, right slab?

Thanks Dave thats really helpful and appreciated.

.. right off to build up my arm muscles so I can actually lift it.

sorry for lack of pics Slab

Glad to help, even if it meant being told to 'get a grip' and being called 'putin' by slab!

Which finish did you end up with? Maybe you could post some photos if you get a chance, I assume you can lift the camera at least
