Well, this is my first foray into tiki inspired art. It is a carnival style spinner wheel made from a pine table blank, bolts, and mounted to a board with a metal sleeve in the hole to allow proper spin action. I painted the bolt through the mouth to look like a cigarette and even glued cigarette ash to the tip.

This was debuted at a luau last summer and is used in conjunction with drunk blackjack. Basically,you bet drinks(gulps) of beverage against the dealer and play just like regular 21. If a player loses, they may choose to challenge the Big Kahuna(dealer) by spinning the Wheel of Debilitating Drunkeness. If it lands on "Big Kahuna" you must consume a full mug of beverage(I used the Grog mug by Tikifarm). IF it lands on "Little Kahuna" you must consume a smaller mug(Don Ho Tikifarm). "Tourist" means a bystander must drink. "Dealer" means the dealer drinks the Big Mug(notice how it is a small section.) And on and on... Anyway, we all got really debilitated.
