Blackwater: Tiki Table build diary - Tiki Carving

With a few progress pics since people seem to like those. I used reed fencing, my final purchase from Oceanic Arts. They showed me the wall behind the register was painted yellow under the bamboo for a warmer look. I tried construction cement against the stucco but that didn’t work at all. Both surfaces are too rough I guess. So it was a lot of screws to hold it up. Then some larger bamboo framing to hide the rough edges. #nowhitewalls
