Clarita, thanks for the compliments. I love your tiki candles and the bamboo drums.

Benzart, I am fully recovered now from Hukilau... I think. Compliments from you really mean something to me, thank you! Super Glue it is, as soon as the inlay material gets here I'll give it a shot.

GMAN, I'm glad you like the patu. It was fun to do. The scroll saw is definitely at the top of my purchase list.

Tyger Jymmy, thank dude!

GROG, I don't have to kill it, the deed's already been done. Still waiting on some Flintstone's Apatosaurus bones from you. Thanks.

Spermy, thanks for checking in. I'd trade all the bones in the world to have a cool bamboo pad like yours.

I think I finally reached a burn-out stage, took it real easy this week. I'll probably get back into the swing of things after the weekend. All I did this week is a Hawaiian style hei matau and started something for a friend. He's got nothing but Octopi and Squid tattoos all over and wanted a Squid pendant. I told him I'd give it a try.


What I imagine a "Hawaiian style" hook looks like.


Not tiki, but I'm posting here anyways. This little guy is about 75% complete I think, maybe less. I wasn't going to attempt all 10 tentacles, but did want to get those feeder arms and the water jet in the design.
