Hi guys. I'm going to attempt a posting here:

While in Florida, I tracked down a tiki carver who does some fantastic work and came highly recommended by local shop owners. I had located him last year, but was unable to establish contact. This year was different.
I met Charlie Knight, tiki carver extraordinaire! He has a little shack (quite literally!) on Highway 98, between Ft. Walton Beach and Pennsacola, around Navarre Beach. You can contact him a [email protected]. He says he will have a web site up soon.
This guy makes the greatest, most detailed and professional looking affordable palm carved tikis in Florida! I have seen many, but Charlies are by far superior. I got a SUPER deal on a 4' teeth-filled tiki that now sits in my tiki room. And my only regret is that I did not buy a couple more.
I will post a pic as soon as I can learn how.

My frustration with the Yahoo group continues, but I had to post to my fellow tiki-lovers what I had purchased.

Hanford, as always, thank you for the outlet!
