It was a great Chop. I think the weather really dragged me down. Then again, the design I was using may have been a little overly ambitious.

After Cammo so kindly got my log down the stairs and Clysdalle so kindly cut it in half for me, here's what I started with. Yes, it's another Shag tiki. It's just a phase. I swear. One day I will have an original thought.

I worked until I couldn't hold my mallet anymore, and I still didn't get very far. Any sane person would have taken down the sides with a power tool, but no, I have to be all stubborn and just use my chisels. Oh, and Buzzy's chisel. Thanks, Buzzy .)

He's not really turning out like the picture, but in this instance I'm kind of glad.

Thanks again to Bill and Lennie for hosting. The won tons were fabulous.

Dave -- The slip casting demo was awesome. You do fantastic work. Any chance of a mold making demo in the future?

Mieko -- Thanks for having such wonderful parents. (And for just being you.:))

Cammo -- Man. Can't thank you enough for all the entertainment you provided me. (What's the guy getting arrested for on the Drink Tour?)

Moki -- I love my purple puffer pendant! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

tikimecula -- Your war clubs are amazing. I hope you come hang out again so we can check out more of your technique.

Ona -- Thanks for eating all of the chocolate that was in my eggs. Spared me some calories there. :wink:

CheekyGirl -- You always manage to cheer me up. Thanks.

Mr. NoNaMe -- Best jumpsuit ever.

Can't wait for this Saturday.
