I have been lurking but have really bogged down with remodeling the kitchen. Before I got underway I actually sold one more of my previous tikis and was asked to make two more. I worked on these most of the winter. One is made of maple. I have had to take what I can get my hands on. I sure am not a fan of this maple. Here he is.

The next guy was made out of oak. Oak was acutally easier than the maple. I haven't been too happy with my hands on previous tikis as they seem like an afterthought. I made sure I focused on this guys hands before I did anything else. I have lost my my usb cable to my good camera. Hopefully I will be able to find as these pictures aren't all that clear.

I am working on a six foot poplar log currently. It seems much easier. Anyone aware of any pratfalls in dealing with poplar? Any feedback would be appreciate.

Thanks
