Cheers Tikigap, glad you are enjoying this thread. I live pretty rurally & its nice to have you all in the shed with me!

Thanks for the reprieve Benz!
As it happened I did do some carving the other afternoon, but managed to take a break from regular production. Started a few facial details on this:

Got wood? :lol:

And yesterday saw me talking to an old pal: 8 1/2 inches long! (not wood :wink:)

This fella was made a few years ago (Paipo should recognise him) but went through a little cosmetic surgery yesterday, changing the mouth, eyes, brow, toes & 'kneecaps'...


Not the prettiest Ive ever made, but certainly the biggest. He's beeen hanging in my workshop for far too long so I thought a revamp & a price cut might sell him for me (currently for sale on a non-eBay auction site)

Another full tiki day ahead. Catch you all a bit later. TTT :)
