We found this "Jimmy Buffetized" 5' Tiki last year at a swap meet. The older couple said they got it from their neighbor before she moved, and was used as a stage prop for her Polynesian dancing.

I used a wire brush to get most of the neon paint job off.

Then took the torch to it .

Not overly detailed (maybe that's why someone felt the neeed for paint), but we like it anyway. Has lotsa hatchet marks and the top is concave and burned......flaming tiki?
