BTW I sold my first pendant today before I got a chance to take a picture of it: what my fiancee is calling a "Monkeypod Hankaroa". I'll PM you some pics of the other Monkeypod, Koa and Litrodora pendants. I brought some exotic hardwoods back from the islands this winter so I'll also have to start on the Kamani and Kiawe. Talk about some hard wood... The Litrodora sent me for stitches when the blade skipped the groove and slashed across the back of my fingers. (I was only supposed to be sanding so no glove. The Doc said I was lucky I keep my blade sharp! Mahalo again for being a patient mentor at the Oky Oky.
