I haven’t had much luck on the bigger sizes. After Mrs. Hoptiki had been looking at Tiki Central for awhile she said she wanted to carve a tiki. It just so happened on my way to work the week before some one had cut up a Mexican Fan palm and dumped it by the side of the road. I hadn’t paid much attention to it since I'd never picked up a chisel before. Anyway, There were four pieces left so I snagged them and ordered some cheap $10.00 chisels on line. I could kick myself now for not getting more of that palm wood but at the time I didn’t even know the spices of palm it was. Oh well… Mr Hoptiki [ Edited by: Mr&Mrs BPHoptiki 2007-04-15 13:32 ]
