Thanks all for the kind words! I'm happy with it but in my mind I have a long way to go yet... or not... I have to look at it more... I'm my worst critic... that whole trip...

As for a fountain... I don't know yet... I think the mouth is too low for the two bowls I wanted the water to flow in... I may do a thinner log that's taller for the fountain.

"You took out all the "log" and all that's left is tiki."

I like how that sounds! It was sort of my goal but when you have that much wood it seems like an overwhelming task... especially with chisels... the twist and bend in the log was a challenge, but in nature you take what you can get!

Jimmy... the palm is next! I have it on the carving bench I just have to come up with a design... it is a special log so I want to carve a special tiki out of it...
