Benzart: Someone asked me if you were the guy from Florida who first put a pineapple on a tiki. Are you this man? Someone else asked me if you used to come to California "back in the day" about once a year with a trailer full of tikis that you used to sell . I do not know the answers to these questions. Should I try the search function before I ask you directly?

I didn't have time to carve today. Another sign means I can buy the fixtures for GMAN's room in my tiki island mansion though:

It's always interesting to see what people want on these signs. I found that the easiest way to cut the letters is with my handy 1" flat chisel. It helps to have a backstop to deflect and gather the smaller pieces.

The Big Time:
I got some more logs delivered today. Nice, big logs.
Here is a nine foot and seven foot log, which will become tikis one day:

Hiltiki: Lots of dimension :)

I also got another 9,8, and 7 footer. Along with a couple 6 footers and a couple small 5 and a half footers

Strange view from the perspective that a 5.5 foot log is "small." I now have enough logs in my yard - for the next few months at least. I'm guess I'm in the beginning stages of a large scale carvings phase.
Hey GROG, Do you want a big log?

Big Log Buzzy Out! Heh, heh...
