Tikis from Portugal, cool!

I'm not a carver but I know that symetry can be a difficult thing. From what I read the key is in sketching the tiki to the log before you start and then following your lines. I see that some of the carvers cut a heavy paper template and use it to trace the marks. You can make the template as half of the tiki, trace one side, then flip it over and trace the other side
