4WD,H10- I somehow missed acknowledging your replies previously so thanks for looking in.

Will,Not much of a market here in TX. There’s only a small community of Tiki people. I’m selling a few to repeat customers and some folk art things on craigslist etc. Just about enough to replenish my sandpaper, stain and other consumables.

Roy, I took the easy way out choosing a name . My original plan for this guy was to have interchangeable weapons systems for him. Lance, dagger, boomerang etc. I got as far as making an alternate model club. Here he is pictured with the“GROGzilla”.

Thank you Clarita- That frame took a lot more patience, focus and time than normal. I’m about 80% satisfied with that frame and that’s pretty high for me. Thanks again.

Made a little more progress on this little fellow but he’s looking more troll than tiki.

I did not carve this fish but I really like it……This yard is about half a mile up the hill from me.

This is the fish I’m working on. It’s just a fraction the size of that shark. I’m considering making it a gafftop just to keep it saltwater. either way it will be some kind of catfish.
