Throw in a couple of those Arizona Ice Tea: Sweet Teas too, and we can probably work something out. Rum Cake: No thanks. :wink:

cheeze buzzy....you're a machine......can i come and apprentice with you ?

I am the Buzzmaster model 2007. I'm just about to upgrade to the 2008 model. Apprenticeship schedule: 1 year of cleaning logs and House of Buzz. 1 year of chisel sharpening. 1 year of rough sanding. 1 year of finishi sanding. After that, I'm just going to quit carving and make mugs. Wax on, Wax off!

Is that the ficus? Good use of asymmetry.
I've got your pendants.

Yes it is Ficus and I have no idea what you are talking about and what have you done with my friend, TikiDav? I'm going to spend all my money on his pendants. I didn't use asymetry, I mostly used a hookknife and some sandpaper.

Hey Buzz, That Ficus wood is really turning out some great looking tikis,,, or IS that You turning out those great looking tikis? Hmmm I'll have to tink-a-bout-it.

Benzart: Thanks for giving away my secrets. Just because you know what I know, it doesn't mean everyone else needs to know it too. Yes, I just scratched a couple lines in the wood, put on some stain, and Poof! tricki tiki all done. Don't tell anyone all I'm doing is relief carving too. They cant tell from the pictures and I'm doing a pretty good job of making them think i'm doing this on round logs, instead of 2" x 12"s.

Carving secrets?:I guess I'll tell you before Mr Benzart the secret killer comes back. I used them ones in the middle

Those four tools are all I've used on it so far.

I love cherry pepsi!
Buzzy Out!
