Trader Bob: Thanks, the thuja is hard to carve, my chisels have to be sharpen like razor blades. To know if my chisels are sharpen like razor blade, I try to shave some hairs on my arms. If it shaves then my chisels are O.K :) For the "third foot" space, you're right :lol: . This tiki is an inspiration from some marq/tahitian tiki and I could see that some of them have no third foot or children arm :wink:

Seeksurf: Thanks dude, that thuja has a beautiful grain that is very pleasant to carve. Unfortunately, it has a few cracks in it but nothing serious.

G-man: Happy to have you here. Thanks for the carvings... and for the shoes too !

Tikifreak1: Thanks for the wors and for the award too. I would like to thank my parents, wife, sister, sister in law and brother in law because without them, nothing would have been possible (that's a joke) :lol:

Mahalo,

Benjamin.
