I like the pecan but i still have not figured out how to get the black out line do you do that after you stain or before,. do i paint the dark out line before or after.. I am just keepin it moving, the angel fish on top of the tiki should of been a tangora face instead of the happy face tiki. I plan to do that. Oh well I guess i am just going to continue the school of hard knocks, the pinapple tiki i stained honey is splitting and the white wood is showing. oh well i do not have a clue. Hope fully get i wiil get more experrience as i move on
