Today's sunset:

Today I worked on the chair that I started yesterday

I began by cleaning up the legs and started to do the drum/seat part

Then i carved a tiki into one of the legs...

and later carved a matching one on the other leg

After that, I decorated the band around the middle and cleaned up the drum/seat part

Before I ran out of day, I squeezed in one more tiki on the drum

Just a little bit more to do now...
