Yesterday's end:

Yesterday was also carve at the hotel day. They moved the venue to the other lawn this time.

I took the eastern corner

I did a smaller set up this time because there was some real gusty wind

I was right next to the guitar dude this time

I didn't do much mallet carving, instead I spent most of my time carving little pendants in the chair:

In the background, the old timey Mark Twain boat.
I sold that tiki there yesterday. Now I have to finish it.

I think that boat is called the Bahia Bell.

Before I went down there, I cut a couple strips of basswood and pre drilled some holes. the plan was to knock out some pendants. I planned on spending about 15-20 minutes on each one. Nothing fancy. Just some quick and cheap hand carved one offs.

I was able to knock out five while I was there:

I think they look neat on the stick.
I'll cut them apart after I do the last two and sand them a little and stain them.

Im definitely in! You know how I thrive in what they euphemistically refer to as a multicultural environment! Thanks for posting the shots of my brief carving adventures out in da hood too.
