Geoff Slee's Equipment

I know Geoff died some time ago and all his equipment/patterns/blanks etc. were auctioned off, so the question is....... Who bought his shaping machines and do they still make rough shaped stocks like Geoff did?
Geoff's stuff was always good to work with and he is yet another loss to the shooting sports in Australia.
If no-one knows where Slee's machines went, is there anyone else in Aus who may be able to rough shape an MBR style stock?

Thanks in advance, Chris.

I think Gordon Cousins from Tasmania picked up a lot of his gear.
