First of all, what does "Zen" have to do with tiki?

"Their unique and different and thought it would be appreciated by those on the forum."

Most of us are artists that are pretty damn serious about our work... and we've seen what's out there... what's original and what's been beat into the ground... type in "Tiki Bar Signs" on any search engine... they're a dime a dozen...

"I guess i should go out to my shop and dust off my chainsaw and power sanders again and keep making tiki poles like all the rest of you sarcastic minions that left me a cheerful post. "

I think the tikis we are carving are very unique, a lot of work, and a hell of a lot harder than running a router over a piece of wood to make a sign...

Come down off your soapbox and appreciate the culture before you start exploiting it...
