Been on here so much that I finally decided to join.

For awhile I have been painting tikis on scrap pieces of plywood and nailing them up on light poles. Surprisingly, many of them are still up months later.

Lately, I have been carving tikis out of cement.


The one on the right is the first one I did. The one on the left is the newest one. I use portland cement poured into a box I made, then grind the faces. They stand a bit over three feet tall and have a piece of rebar sticking out of the bottom so they can stand up on their own or can be cemented into the ground permanently. Was thinking of putting a few in parks around town but my friends keep wanting them, so haven't been able to yet.
