Here is a new tiki I've been working on. It still has a lot of work to be done, but it is finally starting to take shape.

Have a bunch more of sanding with the grinder, a whole bunch more. After reading here on TC, I figured it is best to start fat and slowly remove the excess. Started the rough cuts with a chainsaw, then start with a 36 grit sanding disk to round out everything. Used a dremel tool for the face.

Put out those tapa paintings this morning.

Put this one next to the tiki bar 2 blocks from my house.

This pic didn't turn out very well, but it shows the street in the background. It is a fairly busy intersection during the week.

For Tikigoob and the other Tikihassee crew, I put the paintings here:
Gadsden St by the park
Next to Waterworks
6th ave at Thomasville
