PTD Psycho Tiki D Tiki Socialite The river Styx, can you pay the toll? Joined: Oct 13, 2006 Posts: 1857	PTD Psycho Tiki D Posted posted on Mon, Jul 16, 2007 5:27 PM After much debate and heartache (not to mention heat, cold and dust) we have decided to temporarily locate "Chattarunga" in our living room until we add the 345 square foot room on the back of our cramped 1,100 square foot house. The garage just did not seem to be working out for the bar. I am in the process of putting it all together. Here are a couple of shots and I will add more later! WWII Era GI custom built bar! Wall o' objects (yeah, I know I said I wouldn't put up the Burke Tyree nude, but what the heck, I can cover it up when my not so tolerant family visits)! 99% wood carved tikis (note the irony on placing them over the fireplace)! First "themed" shelve for the Islander Stockton! More sooner than later! Pyscho Tiki D (I know I am and I am finding out I have more stuff than room)!

Wow. I have a meager robot collection. I'm not worthy. I have some aliens also. My wife refers to my computer room as "Scott's World" and when she's complaining to her girlfriends about what a geek I am (she married me) she says, "I think he could launch the space shuttle with all the computer crap he's got in there." No, not yet, I tell her.

I requested Jungle Trader to carve me a "Witco-esque" fountain (his first fountain)! He did an amazing job and cut me a deal to boot. I will post another picture when I finish sealing it and placing the tiki in it's place of honor. Thanks again, Jungle Trader! Psycho Tiki D (I know I am and I'll see you later)!

I have yet to come across an unmarked one in brown with the brown glaze on the bottom. I am pretty sure this mug was used by other establishments as I have seen them in pictures on menus. I have some black ones that are unmarked, as well as some that are marked from tiki bars. Does it have a concave bottom? PTD

V VampiressRN Grand Member (1 year) Sun City Lincoln Hills (NorCal) Joined: Nov 23, 2006 Posts: 6166	V VampiressRN Posted posted on Sun, Mar 2, 2008 12:16 PM I feel honored to now count myself as one of the the lucky dawgs who got to experience the PTD home of insane collections. The Chattarunga Room is a jaw-dropping encounter, I didn't even notice the ultra white ceiling as I was too busy taking in all the awesome mugs, velvets, the swizzle collection, tikis, and art work crammed into the lounge. The live cat action was a great addition to the Mai Tais too. :lol: Each room is decorated with various collections...all very tastefully displayed with loving care. The robot room is to die for!!! The menu collection display will eventually be great...it is so nostalgic looking through those menus and especially at the prices. :o The most fun I had was looking through PTDs scrap books of match covers. Absolutely a hoot...and I sure am sorry I missed going to the "Crampy Pancake House" I am sure a full stack there would have been memorable. :D
