I've always loved tikis and since childhood I have never had a shortage of them around my house. I have always wanted to try carving but was apprehensive because I can't draw and I've surely never carved anything. Here are my first few attempts...

carving... I bought a cheap angle grinder and a lancelot from Harbor Freight (note my tiki tattoo =)

My second attempt, w/ my first attempt in the background

My third attempt, I saw this guy in plastic online and decided to make it out of real cabbage palm

My fourth attempt, with my Min-Pin supervisor looking on

and my most recent attempt... for my mom, the Harley Davidson fan...

I welcome any feedback!!
