You rabid tiki carvers!
Taking a breather. I got too many hobbies, I have to switch focus every now and then and do my other things. It's also good I get to let my right arm heal...I get wicked tendonitis, arthritis, anything ending in itis. Also I need more good wood...I got one good piece, but it needs many months of drying.
Also prepping for a new job/and/or possibly a big move. So not stocking up on any big wood.
I tell ya what though, I love the headdress you just did, and I'd love to try something like it soon. Hope to do another Lono or Ku next.
I guess I hibernate in the winter! Good time to go in the basement and record (musician).
Surf Tiki: I bet your board looks bad to the bone. I bet the type of wood had a lot to do with the stain bleeding. I dabbed mine on lightly with a cloth, and wiped with a clean rag immediately. Mine was Birch, which is a pretty hard wood, sanded real fine too. Now go out and cruise on your board!
Thanks for the bump-up!
Aloha mates!
