C Clysdalle Member Carlsbad, CA Joined: Jan 27, 2006 Posts: 1010	C Clysdalle Posted posted on Sun, Mar 8, 2009 4:48 PM Holy crap...it's been a long time since I was able to get out the chisels and get after a log but this weekend I finally dusted them off and hacked away. Only about 2 hours into this guy but it was great to dig into some wood again, as I had not carved since the last Frank way back before Oasis. Anyway...here is a new guy I just started....Still needs TONS of work and shaping but all I could crank out the short time. Good to be back!!!!

C Clysdalle Member Carlsbad, CA Joined: Jan 27, 2006 Posts: 1010	C Clysdalle Posted posted on Sat, Mar 14, 2009 3:46 PM Oh boy....2 weekends in a row with an actual tiki being carved????? can this be true???? YES! I got another 2 hours into this guy on Saturday...starting to carve out the little skulls on the bottom who right now look just like Pacman ghosts...I still have a lot big work to do and then tons of clean up. It's been waaaay to long and it's been tough to get my damn hands to do what I want, way out of practice.
