Where was this patent applied for? US? Australia?
I think HMF can set up a link to it right here in the database if you give us one more clue.

Glad I could help. Found out there was a patent via the link below and thought I should check it out to see if more information could be added here. There is a lot of informaion on Buck roses with this link.

Also, maybe the 'k' should be dropped so that it reads Bucred not Buckred which is what is in the patent.
