After being on TC for just over a year, carving tikis for just UNDER a year, making a few friends here and there, pissing off the overly-sensitive, and providing entertainment to those who have a sense of humor, I’ve finally (after MUCH internal debate), decided to start a carving thread and show some of the things I’ve carved in the last year. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

This is a pic from my first chop with four great folks that I learned a lot from

This was my first tiki, started @ Babalus’ place @ the Lemon Grove Trailor Trash chop, one year ago.

And with stain and varnish

#2, Sold to Closet tiki @ Oasis 7

#3, Sold to a British gentleman @ Oasis 7

They’re all numbered, but I sort of lost track of the numbers in my photos

Tried airbrushing.....


Did a carshow, got into Streetrodder Magazine

Making a set of tables for a highschool friend. This is one of them, carved at Cammos house

Bill and Buzzy joined me

with some of my children...


I traded this one for a 1973 P200 Rally Vespa


I wasn't’t happy with this one, but the guy who bought it was

More to come, but I’ve got to get back to work!
