Aloha Tiki guys,
Well, that was a surprise. The traffic on my website goes through the roof, and I find its from a link at TikiCentral. Cool. Thanks for finding me. Somehow I managed to remain ignorant of this forum and community of Tiki fanatics. I have always felt myself to be out there in left field anyway- good to see I am not alone.
You can see pretty much what I'm all about from the website. We bailed from my tropical paradise in 2000- for the states and a decent education for the kids- but kept my labor of love. Now, the place is sustainably producing more bamboo than I can use (my intention all along). I am still very much into bamboo design, and have utilized Google Sketchup (3D design)for developing concepts into detailed models. I recommend it for anyone out there similarly inclined. Designers ( 8 year olds to architects)submit their design into the 3D warehouse for everyone to use: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/
Anyway, I have a bunch of bamboo designs, including the porch swing someone mentioned, under a collection called, appropriately enough,"bamboo": http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/cldetails?mid=c53223d2923341f6d75cb382f1cd629&prevstart=0
I head back down to the islands in a week, anxious to build the new bamboo designs. I'll add some pics and stuff to this forum as it becomes a reality.
Hasta, .........Jo
