" It's great to have you back posting. Somebody's going to be happy happy happy with that swap piece. "Thanks Johnny, Appreciate these words.

kreepytiki lounge & tattoos, Thanks for the kind words, but you should Try not to spend too much time on the floor :lol: :lol:

FastFreddi, Thanks for your words of wisdom and praise. I am Happy to be back too.

Pappythesailor, Thanks for the props on the elephants, It was a spectacular piece and I am really glad that the repair came out so well because she eventhought I would not be able to do it without it looking bad. I Was worried at first but that was unfounded, it turned out to be very easy to fix.
The Moko/Moai will be az two faced type of guy where dual looking wood would fit his dual personality, but honestly I just wanted to use that Ziricote wood since it is SO Spectacular. Thanks.

Thanks Seeks, You would probably love the Smell of the wood too as it is a very rich , sweet smell to it. Also it buffs and polishes up very well with a bit of Bees Wax. It's nit great for carving detail with any knife but power machined tools work well. The hook knife blade breaks right off and is difficult to control.Thanks again

Thanatos, Thanks for the kind words, Long time no see, Everything OK with you?? Thanks. You're in Tampa bay these days? Were you Always there?

Jonsesey, How 'ya doin', Man?? Happy it would seem, me too! HappyHappyHappy Thanks SO Much for the Giant box of Enthusiasm, and kind words.

Clarita, Clarita, Clarita, SO Happy and Positive and So Sweet Thanks for brightening my day! you have a Standing invitation to come around here Anytime you like, THANKS!

Hey Hodadhank, Thanks for the Cool Words, I think he's even Cooler Now, Check IT!

This guy is 5" tall and large for a pendant so I may create a stand for him too so he can have a permanent place to sit when not hangin' around someones neck
I hollowed his back out and refined the details and am ready for the Moko for what it is anyway. It would be great to see Tama get this one since he has the original I'm working off of, they are brothers in fact so there.
Here are todays Pictures, Enjoy
