I'm having a lot of fun with these pieces and I've been doing a lot of research to keep them on the traditional side. The thickness of most of the pieces is between 3/4 and 1". Some of my new work for the Tiki Mag show consisted of different planes of wood to create layers. 3/4" - 1"?? Wow! That impressive with not very much depth to work with. Well, it seems to me anyway. I haven't tried anything like that yet. But looks pretty tough.
