I saw you Saturday morning at Hukilau but didn't want to bother you. Plus you had a sharp object in your hand :) And again at the Mai Kai that night but wasn't the place to talk shop. The piece you did that Bob Ho (Tiki Hana) had around his neck was spectacular. The pics on the forum didn't do it justice. I use a lot of different tools. Like most all beginners I bought some cheap stuff to make sure I could even do this. Now I'm starting to buy better quality tools. I'd say every piece gets touched by my dremel tool. But my hook knife comes in a close second. Especially with the smaller stuff. I'm wanting to tackle some big pieces next. So some better chisels are going to make there way to the garage. I'll try to get a pic of tools and space together. Thanks again Mahalo Tiki 65
