My next trip down we shall definately have to discuss it over a virgin mai tai or two. Can you work a cash register and make proper change? BTW one of my new years resolutions along with giving up anger and cigars was to carve every single scrap of wood you sent me last year by new years eve 2010. Here's the start along with some of those action shots you dig. Ben, you are a Master and I merely a disciple. My students, in turn, are yours, and I pass along whatever knowledge you have shared with enduring gratitude. Mahalo nui loa.

This little fella's going to England...

A nice chunk of Benz Koa should make a cute hybrid Tang/Marq paperweight!

My only three shipwreck teak Hawaiians w/ the two new Tangs (Fret not FreddieBallsomic, that biggest Hawaiian still has your name on it. I only just found and finished him!)

Anakonia & R.C.D.P. Murf

Anakonia's Aloha mask

Surfboard guru Jim Ellinton try's his shaping skills on some mysterious "stinkwood". Have no idea what "stinkwood" is or why it smells so bad when freshly cut, but if trimmers drop 'em we'll carve 'em!

More mystery wood.

Anakonia begins a giant Hawaiian fork and knife. She's also a great Hula dancer. catch her next Hula Show, St Patty’s Day Eve, Monday 6pm, March 16th @ Kaisen Sushi in Oceanside. No Cover Charge. contact [email protected] for more details.

The Munk takes a break from rolling in sawdust to play with her giant squeeky edamame.
