Thanks Kirby!

Yep, in January of 2001, this landlocked surfer decided he needed a tiki idol.

I set out with a mallet and bench chisel and carved out one of the worst tikis anyone has seen. :wink:

But it was mine and I made it... and the seed was planted.

I carved many more that year and shared them with fellow surfers in August of that year.

In 2002, I discovered Tiki Central... and the rest is recorded within this forum.
