Nice stuff Conga I think your stern-faced looking Moai is Dennis Hoppers twin brother and the other tiki is a twin from one of Boskos tikis. :lol: :lol: :lol: Don't worry 'bout it , finish'em up and let'em hang arounf yer place fer awhile! |

Barney is some high company, man! Fair to say if it's mega huge and it's still around, then there's a good chance Barney carved it. Good stuff, Conga. |

Sorry Conga, but you don't have any excuse to stop. If I'm not mistaken, there is a place called the Conga Lounge which is conveniently located inside your very house! Bring in your log, a small work bench, and a coaster for your mai tai and you'll be good until spring. |

Hey Conga, great new piece. Your "congoesque" nod to witco is definately your own and done beautifully. If it's too cold where you are...maybe it's time for a trip to the west coast...or Hawaii? :) |

Hey Conga! The self-portrait is killer! PLEASE don't hang up your toolz for the winter. That would make us Sad Sad Sad. Watching you create in the Conga-style makes us Happy Happy Happy! You just keep going old man! -G |

Conga, That is one fine example of a tiki! I really think that you need to get yourself one of those big ass space heater things and keep pushing through the winter. Also, really glad that there are a couple of guys around here, besides myself, that remember those good ole days...or do we just think we do? So where do we get discounts? You rock hard Master C! |

Part of your series of Manaia on the wall ??? 3 or so in varying sizes??? Looking killer! Great idea! I've always liked the 3 viking ships etc. (in varying sizes) wall hangings. |
