I took the leftover piece of wood I cut off the ring and I started another small guy last night: For size reference: Babalu: That rabittiki is long, long gone by now. I think that was the first carving I did that actually left my possession. I was making a second one when the chainsaw slapped me in the face. After that, I considered the carving to be jinxed and I quickly discarded it. I foolishly carved that first one with a dremel tool (didn't have any chisels yet) and it took me about 4 days. Based upon the advancement of my skills and looking at the depth and quality of carving on the rabbittiki, I think I can make one now in about an hour, maybe less. However, I now pass the rabbitiki making torch on to you...(I think I was just borrowing it from you, anyway) LOL: Mugs Bunny! Yes! Babalu, are you still reading... The weather is sunny and the forcast calls for some more kicking ass today! |

Pinky ring on me, but I have these fat carver hands now so this one was made chick sized. The hole has the same diameter as a dime. BambiBen: Here is my new ring (under construction) that will eventually be placed upon my hand, which you will then be required to bow down and kiss when you enter my presence:

Today's sunset: All I have left now on this guy is the sanding and staining It's about 3/8" deep, just under 2.5" tall... Here it is on my meat claw, for scale: Hopefully one day a scuffle will break out, and this will be the last thing someone will see before knockout time! Benzart: You espeaka my language! With this Ring, I be King! |

I sanded and stained the newest ring: The size of the band and its placement makes a neat kickstand so it can be displayed when, and if, I ever find myself not wearing it. On 2008-01-09 21:29, HOUSE OF KU wrote:

Today's sunset:
You see, when I'm feeling regal, it's the Don King wig. When I want to go out and be represented as a loser artist, I don the kinny wig. Double value! It's analogous to the classic tale of The Prince and the Pauper. Buy my tikis so I can get food and keep carving Buzzy Out! |

For an extra buck, you could always sell your sunset photos to the outer bank, east facing residents, towards the ocean. I'm guessing their pads are dark and dingy by the time you get a beautiful sunset. |

Few days worth of sunsets: Today
I was also thinking about planting some giant bamboo across the front property line and let it grow, grow, grow. Then, I would have the neighbors pay me to remove it. I would be selling them an ocean view. That would be worth million! H20: Glad you're having a good time time out there, but don't drink the water! Tahitiki: Hey, thanks for dropping by. The bling is for a Tiki Guy who feels the compulsion to represent his true tiki status. For serious players only!
Thanks Robin! More fun on the way... My left hand was feeling a little naked without some Tiki Bling on it. last night I worked on that problem: It's one of those four finger wide knuckle covering bling rings Today, I finished carving it Then i sanded it, and stained it Now I need more hands! |

Yesterday, I spent my afternoon crafting some log drawings I managed to get four done, all freehanded Here is a couple of face logs that I drew out with my chaisaw. I put in dark stain to trick the eye into thinking there is a shadow there. It's easier to do this than to actually carve it out. And here's a couple that almost have elements of tiki in them My favorite effort is the Chainsaw KU 4WD: I'm sure there will resin casts in every color of the rainbow for that ring. Especially GOLD! Hiltiki: *
I was actually thinking of making one of those Maori clock meeting house thingys, kinda like these Benzart: keep watching and I'll keep making stuff. Some of it will even be of marginal quality. Thanks for your help! The Devolution of Tiki has always been market driven. |

Couple sunsets: Here's this guy all stained up: Project next is these two 5' support poles for a patio installation
It's new thing I'm trying: to be entertaining! Glad you hopped on for the ride when I was bringing my A game. In a couple pages I'll run out of new material and have to go back to making fun of the mug guys and drunks again.
You know I will never take ANY of my Barbies out of the original packaging!
Thanks Mooney! Nice work on your end too! I'll keep having fun because that's all I time for these days. BambooBen: Stupid Patriots! Now it's back to UFC season. Go Nate Diaz! This rain is messing with my work timetable. |

Sunset: Progress:
I love house carving! In addition to big balls of steel, I also have splinter resistent skin on the bottom of my feet. The ocean view over here is kind of distracting, so I never really notice this:
It's all about having the right tool for the job! Kiva guards the mess! Buzzy Out! |

Hey Buzz Boy - How about a debate? Seems like the 'in' thing these days. U pick the time, place, and subjects. U pick your opponent. Or opponents. I can moderate, but I'll need a few slugs of rum & lime. Who would go up against Buzzy the Wonder Kid in a no-holds barred faceoff on a national live cyber-cast? With a smash-ola'd moderator? Or is this getting too political? Maybe the only debate rule is that NONE of the subjects can be politics! |

Sunset: I did most of the roughing out on this guy. Now I just have to do the final adjustments, sanding, decorating, sanding again, staining, sealing, and installing to do. Cammo: I think a debate would be a great idea. I love to fling rhetoric around, along with my woodchips ,that is! Harro: Here's some riveting action from the life of Kiva If we all yell LOUD, maybe we can stop the rain! |

Howabout a Chop Debate. While one person addresses the question, the other carves their Tiki. Then back. You get votes by answering questions AND producing a Tiki. Do it live with write-in Shout questions. Vote for the winner via Shout. The debate topics are totally open. Questions about ANY subject are allowed. Again, who will go up against the Buzz from Tikiland? |
