Paipo - I'm glad you are able to see the ancient style I'm trying to put into these fellas. Some of the older Hawaiian stuff was pretty freaky. I agree, this size is definitely easier to store or have on display. However, I have lotsa room here for the big guys and plan to get back into my big figure carving when my back lets me move him around, and around, and around, and around. It isn't getting him to the bench that is the issue, it's moving him around while he's on the bench.

Benz - Yeah man, I could use some walnut. Hopefully I can get over there one weekend when the doc is home. I could always pay shipping?

Tama - I knew someone would recommend it be used as a "beer tap", however I would have never thought it would have been you. Aack. I might as well hang my art over a urinal somewhere. :wink: But yes, from what I understand, this would be the Hawaiian version of what you described. The string yanking thing is a nice twist - my wife has one of those.......

FBalls - Let me see.....Nope, the Ku is right here chillin at Club-Greg. Thanks for stopping by!

Davez - Thanks for the island pics and for your comment. The shot you took with one of your girls on each side is great. Please post more shots of that style carving if you have them. :D
