It's been a long while since I shared and I'm happy to talk about any of my carvings or designs. I try to pop onto TC as often as I can, but I don't leave as many comments as I should. I will try and start doing that again soon. I do miss the camaraderie and swapping of ideas of fellow carvers/creators! I'm excited with how the tang lamp turned out. It was a long process to figure out the little globe and the wiring for it, but in the end it was worth the effort and a great and fun learning experience. I feel like every time I make something I need to challenge myself somehow and it makes the process of creating a little longer, but usually always worth it! Nixxon - thank you very much! We're stoked to finally own a place and do what we want with it. I've been lurking the home bar and vintage tiki lounge threads coming up with ideas. We'll see what happens, but I'll definitely post the end results as they come! Thanks Keylo! JT - whythankyouverymuch! Creo67 - thanks for the comments and for supporting my work! Lake - wow, that's quite a nice comment coming from such an excellent artist as yourself and not only well respected in the tiki community, but also around my house! I totally want to buy every carving you make! Thank you very much and remember, next time you're in so cal, we're going beachcombing! Seagoat - Thanks buddy! cy - thank you very much. the AIP carving was an interesting and fun one to cast. I didn't think it was going to work, but turned out really neat in the end Mc - Thanks, friend! Good to hear from you and it's nice to be back, hopefully doing more tiki work than house maintenance on the weekend (like plumbing!) pjc5150 - thank you! I'm super excited about the garage work space. At my old rental I did all my work either outside or in the laundry room. It's nice to have a place to store all my tools and materials and have some space for an inspiration area too! (that's coming behind the bamboo fence!) Stay tuned! Zero - thank you! I'm digging the carved table lamps right now! aloha - Mahalo! Thank you for peeking and for the warm welcome! Thanks for stopping by my little corner!
