His lamps are terrific. http://www.etsy.com/listing/84678770/sale-15-1960s-pineapple-rock-chunks-swag Sunday November 4th, 2012 Thank you all for your support.

Progress Report Wish List #3.

Yesterday was the day to work on projects you've seen before. I did make them better. Here are the photos.

I used these three tools to add coconut texture to Dan's new Coconut Bob bowl. The faces and inside of the bowl will be white and the outside brown just like the old mugs. Dan keeps grabbing all my Bob Bowls.

Marone Tikis Scuba Bob
Saved by dartharnie, here are the new goggles.

I cleaned up the straps.

I added four fish which reminded me of the surfing Harvey's girl mug.

Done and ready to slowly dry.
