Hi Folks - I have some picture updates for you

As I said, my daughter saw one of Tama's tikis, and wanted me to try and make her one like that (hahaha)

So we drew it up, and cut out the form

Then I just got stuck in, no more pics for a while.

Nearly finished - scritchy scraching out the tool marks - and something dreadful happened - you can see the evidence in these pics taken after the fact . . .

At this stage, both my daughter and I were rather happy with progress, then I left it wrapped in a towel and forgot it was there - and . . .

dissapointed, I had to break the news to my daughter. I got busy with new designs for another slab, and she chose this one

So yesterday I got started . . .

and that is it so far

Thank you for looking

KS
