Hello tiki Centralites,

I just wanted to show you some of the projects going on in my backyard.
My neighbors have been calling the city planning and the fire dept. on me whenever they get a chance, so I am only working on small ones at home. I try to create the big ones up in my mountain work as well as most of the noisy work. (chainsaw/grinder)

Below is some sloppy chainsaw work.

These tikis, if you can call them that, are in the finishing sanding process. The large, skinny double tiki is now residing at Aloha Grill. I'll show some pictures of the finished product when I get over there.

Some of these tikis are flat on the back. They are actually the first cut that has to be made in the milling process. Normally, these pieces would either be thrown away or chopped into mulch. I always feel good about making these, it is kind of recycling.

Below are images of some more burl Moai. These are the only traditional style tikis that I will carve since no one really knows about this lost culture.

Thanks for checking out my post.

Will
