aloha thank you guys very much I've been into tikis and the Polynesian lifestyle all 20 years of my life it comes with the hot rod culture i guess. living so close to the Mai Kai and working at the jet-setter i get alot of inspiration and just seeing all the great carvers here on tc makes me wanna get out and grab a chisel and mallet...lol. I've been carving for about 3 months and so far have sold two pieces i look forward creating more and sharing with the much more experienced carvers here .... Mahalo nui loa ..Me ka Micky tiki |

Hey Micky I suffered the same damage to the top surface of my workmate. I replaced the press board with 3/4" ply. Works great now, it'll even support my butt. If you want it super strong laminate two pieces together. Uncrichie... [ Edited by: uncrichie 2006-11-12 21:27 ] |
