WELCOME to TC MakuTiki, Glad to have you here!
Looks like you have a Lot of Bottled up tiki art waiting to Explode there. You are getting some Excellent detail too, can you post pictures of all the tools you are using?
Nice tiki.

Hi Benzart.
I will post pics of the tools I use as soon as possible. For me it takes a while to finish the Tiki, since I live in Oslo and the Tiki is placed an hour drive away at my parents place, I don´t get to carve as much as I´d like to. I´m thinking of getting a stable, very small Chainsaw, making it easier to carve faster and deeper into the wood. Now I´ve used a bent big old saw, only for cutting down trees with, a Black&Decker angle grinder, first using an Exalibur blade that was way too nasty and out of control, and then I´ve changed the disk to a course sandpaper, much safer. At the moment I´m using a small chordless Dremel tool, making the ornaments on the tiki. I will post shots of it probably when I next go for a carving visit.

My Tattoo!!!
