FZ,

Nice work! I am working on my first palm carving right now, & I've been wondering about how I should stain the tiki. I noticed that different areas on the fan palm are differently colored - yellow/grey/tan at surface, whiter below, then slightly reddish about a half inch down.

Oh, well - there's one way to find out! I must say, I've been carving that AAC material, and actual wood is quite a bit harder to carve.

Keep on carvin' and keep on postin' my friend! Great work!

Aaron
