Paipo - Yep, still waiting on the Paua Fairy. I hear he's got a buncha pieces for me :D I'm gonna need every piece of it now.

JohnnyP - Yep, not bad for a chainsaw guy, only this chainsaw guy used to carve decoys with chisels before he got bored (20 years ago) - I never said I couldn't use them, I just really love carving with my saw! Oh, and if you are in town for Thanksgiving, you need to come by. Just one thing, make sure you bring safety glasses, because when I carve a turkey, I let 'er rip! Brrrrrrrrp!

McTiki - thanks for the compliment!

Flippity Floppity Jones - Yeah, he does have a nice butt. I think I'll lift it a bit and make it a bit more round....that way the ladies will really dig him!

Benz - The shark is still sitting on the kitchen table; right where he was when you came over. I'll get back to him one day. I could probably finish him in one weekend and then do his moko in another few days. As for all the Maori tekos, I'm just enjoying having them around. All the others are gone.

Hewey - Thanks dude, I try.

Haikai - Thanks man. If I ever get to Germany, we'll have to get together and let the saws rip!

I appreciate all the comments and support, you guys are great. I cut out another pendant tonight, a small hei-tiki. Here he is below, and in another pic with the others I cut last night. Now I'll get cracking on these buggers and wait for the Paua Fairy.....

And another pic with a few other pendants in there....
