I was trying to get a dead 40 ft. palm tree but the guy who owned it wanted 1,000 clams to haul it from Merced to Turlock. Dealbreaker. Anyone know of a mountain I can carve? Damn we should carve the moon. Look thru a telescope and see Ku looking back.

First, Mr. PotatoHead. My grandson (2 years old) and I collaborated on this one. 2nd, a rootball that was nearly stolen from Minnie's. Third, a horsehead unfinished. Mahalo podnah!

Looking great! Mr. Potato Head is great also, not to mention the rootball! As much as I enjoy tiki work, branching out into other subjects in wood is a nice change of pace. I've found that it actually improves my tiki work in the long run, as I learn other woodcarving techniques on different subjects. I saw you mention doing Southwest/Cowboy carving. I think that would be a fun subject that would sell by you. Here in the Midwest, its all bears and eagles, subjects that don't hold my attention at all.

That last one totally looks like he's got a few explorers/missionaries boiling up for dinner. Love the expression and the root ball is fantastic! By the way...in the first pic, what's that crazy monster chain-saw looking tool? it looks like it can really tear some wood apart!
