Been too lazy to take some update photos. Besides I've spent a lot of time hollowing out the drums. A lot of work that really doesn't show any progress, but finally today I took some. Here is a couple updates on the slit gong and the three legged drum. Notice the carpet .... Carving inside is a lot easier than outside in this temp.

Gman the frozen tundra was 3 degrees this morning.

Thanks everybody for the compliments.

Seeks, only the slit gong and the three legged one are drums.

Lake, thanks for the comments. Winter is the only time I have to work on these, but this year I think I am going to get a heater for the pole barn.

Kino, Slit gongs do sound pretty nice for a piece of wood, they boom pretty loud. If you want to make one, send me a PM and I'll be gland to send you some tips.

Mooney, usually my markings for a tiki is usually a couple chalk marks.

Benz, I check in every day, and yes I'll be around for a long time.

Clarita, thanks for the warm welcome!

Thanks for looking,
Northerners Stay warm,
Southerners Enjoy the warmth.
