nomolos, many thanks!

Jonesey, thanks for the inspiration! There's no stopping now!

Mooney, thanks for stopping by, and I appreciate the compliments!
I guess I am kind of a speed demon, but I'm always lookinf towards the next piece.

I use a combination of smaller hand tools, power and chisel to get carving jobs done. Power when I need to remove lots of material fast and at a uniform depth, chisels when I want a softer look.

As for the rest, I guess just a steady hand and hold your breath a lot. :wink:

Keep up the great work on your end, I love your surf inspired tiki creations!
