While cannibal tikis eat other tikis, this guy is given a steady diet of grilled chicken and hr likes it way more than Orange tiki. Thanks again! Flynny, Thanks, he's a bit better now though. I will ask the main company if there are any UK dealers. The rubber mandrels are 1/2 and 1/4 inch which should be standard sizes. These shotsn were taken with no oil but with wax. After the 400 grit band I used a 2400 grit diamond past on a small felt wheel then buffed it out with a 6 inch cotton wheel with Flexcut Gold polishing compound, then beeswax for the finish. However I picked up some small metal or diamond specks on the initial buff and didn't notice them until the camera caught them. I'm really getting blind.
