I'm currently working on a Marqueses inspired tiki.
It's gonna be a big one. This log is over 9ft and weighs about 400 lbs

I really like the Electric planer compared to the draw knife, whew! Thanks Buzz!

I don't usually draw on the log first, but it's so big, I need some guide lines.


Just started my first cut and I killed my saw!!


Curious bystander does push ups while I carve.

I got a brand spanking new saw!!!





I'm gonna keep this guy G rated, he'll have a package like a GI Joe figure, but no woodpecker! Haha

Deadline is Sunday. I have to install this dude before the Nascar Party at my client's house. It's crunch time tomorrow.

I'll post more pics tomorrow. Thanks for looking!
