For all you pirate and nautical buffs, I wanted to let you know that in addition to carving tikis, I also make reproduction naval/pirate cannons. Cannons are cast from concrete in a mold that I made, and the carriages are built from treated wood.

Here's the latest that I made for a friend of mine..

If you are interested in learning more, PM me and I can email you a brochure.

Thanks!

Awesome dude. I just saw a reproduction cannon from a recently closed theme park for sale in the classifieds and thought I would love a cannon. Pity I got nowhere to put one.

I had an idea - these would look crazy if i could mount them sticking out the side windows of my car! No more road rage against me!

I would love a pair, but I don't beleive the local authorities would be too keen on them.

Do you make any other cool stuff?

It's so cosy having a thread all to ourselves.

Yeh I dabble where my interest takes me. My brother wanted a tiki for his beer garden, so I started carving. I do art 'cause I have been drawing as long as i can remember. Can't wait to get my own place so i can really start having some fun
