hey everyone
just got back from 3 weeks vacation in san diego(being the only government paid az tiki carver has
it perks!!)and had to get back to the problem of getting my big tiki off the ground(its about 500lbs)
so i solicited help from tc and it always comes back to"get a bunch of beer,get 5 people and stand it up"
well gettting the beer is the easy part,5 people is everyone for 2 miles.so as i was siting around thinking,
(drinking margaritas)

i figured out my patent pending(dont tell anyone!)margarita powered tiki lifting devise- model 34xr4445g)!!!!
(now available at better rxalls nationwide)
(margaritas not included)

i had this pile of pavers and 2 2x4s laying around,and the tiki rolls easy
so i put pavers under 1 end ,rolled it to that end added pavers to the other end
it works great,if you can lift 1 paver you can do this,the hardest part was getting the
pavers to the tiki,thats where the margaritas come in

and before you can drink a picture of margaritas its up!!

also made alittle head in sd to give to my friend bernardo i stayed with
