Debuting at the Hot Rod Hula Hop next weekend. A few variations on this also. This picture looks like hell, the sun was really bright and washed it out. Have to re-shoot it later. Using up some odd sized pieces of wood I have. Yesterday the log fairy came to visit. This beast weighs at least 400 lbs. Not sure exactly what it is... carves like a Basswood almost. But I know its not Basswood. Cottonwood maybe? Going to be a challenge to carve when I get to it. Some potential takers, a few friends that are thinking of buying a large tiki for their yard. I'll wait to see who bites first... I've got enough tikis! :wink: [ Edited by: Lake Surfer 2009-03-22 00:52 ]
