Aloha!

Thanks again for all the kudos!

Von- Your Dallas Witco's look cool! The Washington Witco's are deeper cut with more detail, and a slightly narrower box-frame. You've got yours displayed just right and they look great!

BK- you're a madman! Chinese Newspaper!?!? Man, they grow dat stuff STRONG down there! :wink:

BBen- The ceiling's not quite done yet. Since it's pretty low, I can't do too much with it. That's why I painted it purple; so it will simulate twilight thru an open roof. I still have to install the fiber optic stars like I mentioned earlier in this post, then I'll be hanging bamboo grids at various levels to break-up the flatness. I'll also be running my Witco-style mug shelves with hidden foot-lights around the perimeter at the top of the walls with a 2" bamboo crown molding at the actual wall/ceiling meeting place. Lotta work left...

VRN- The room is an original part of the house. It's the "Family Room / Dining Room" combo space. But now, it's just gonna be "Da Tiki Room"!

I started my new job at The Lassen Gallery today, so progress is gonna be slowed WAY down. After making the Shelves, Crown Molding and Grids, I gotta make another 500 mile round-trip to Frank's to pick up more 3" bamboo to frame a door with. I'll keep posting those photos as I go.

Mahaloz!
