Bringing some hardwood home for carving - Tiki Carving

The wood I've worked with recently is about 24" length and about 12-14" diameter. Anything around those proportions would be great, probably nothing a lot larger. A little smaller or a little larger would be okay too. Same for the Manzanita. I think that this would also work for Polynesiac, 'cause most of my wood came from him. But I'll let him chime in if he's interested & wants me to pick up some for him. So where is Shinola, anyway, since it doesn't appear on maps? What's the nearest town? How far would it be from, say, Oakland? Also, your graveyard story sounds interesting. Can we hear more? It sounds like you live in some kind of co-op of sorts. And the "Freelance Pharmacists"? This tale begs to be shared! Do you carve a lot? Any pics here on TC?
