And it's carved by a Schmaltz too . . . Lucky. I love the final result. My favorite design by the carver is his drawing at the extreme lower left of the sheet. Real classic as well. Good luck mdommert, I'm sure someone suitable will come forward. There are tons of chainsaw carvers where I live (unfortunately far away on the west coast). In fact, every year our town hosts a chainsaw carving championship. Dozens of carvers from all over the country and some from overseas descend here for a week. We could certainly spare a sculptor or two. Though come to think of it, your tiki might turn out to look something like a bear since that's all they really seem to want to carve. They all have the bear thing down cold. [ Edited by: ManFromT.I.K.I. 2007-07-13 18:24 ]
