so i picked up a chisel a while ago and had at with a cypress log i had in the back yard to make a hose reel didn't turn out to bad so i grabbed another log and bought a few more chisels all still flat but a little better. and i recently got a palm tree stump given to me. Crazy story looking for a house in Orangevale and the house next to the one I'm looking at has this awesome palm they are taking out and i ask if i could have it they said of course and they even towed it to my house were i put it in the street by the curb a 20 foot palm trunk... well come home from work and its gone WTF i have to follow the drag trail to the A holes house and tell him to give it back it wasn't garbage but it is art supplies i was so pissed.
Well all that was to say i finally started my first palm tiki and it carves so much easier than cypress LOL .

This is the first one the hose reel.

This is the second tiki a few new chisels its getting better
and the new palm

just a cool pic

started the top of the tiki a army kevlar helmet

and after four hours and way to much rum it has eyes and the begging of a nose

Please tips and tricks will fall on listening and attentive eyes and ears this is crazy fun
