Hi MDM and Hiltiki, I'm better today, yippy. Thanks for checking on me.

I was contacted yesterday by a man who was well known in the 60's for his chunk resin swag lamps. He's decided to make a few and wants to cast resin tikis to go on them between the chunks. As requested I'm making two tikis for him. One a classic Moai and the other a full body tiki. He needs them an exact size so that they will fit his lamps. I've made a guide so that I stay right within the boundaries.

Sit down projects work for me right now so the timing was perfect. Here's the start. Thank you for the visit. Wendy

I drew the measurements onto a card.

I used a baggy to cover the card.

I began to form the Romo #4 clay keeping it within the lines.
