if you were not selling them as fast as you were making them, you could have a City of refuge of your own! Bowie |

I loved them as they were but I have to say that, that little bit of extra "wow" really did make them even more impressive. |

It's up to the client to install them. I gave him some suggestions on how I would do it. They are all pretty dry and light enough that I could stand them up by myself. Picture a solo version of the Iwo Jima flag-raising. :D No install pics yet. The client needs to decide where in the yard he wants to place them. I definately will get pics when that happens, but it might be awhile. |

Haha, yeah I did say 30 lbs. That tiki on the left, I can stand in front of and with my palms on the knees, press it straight up with very little effort. I think I'm on the high side with the 30 lb estimate. |

The bomb house is no more, Mike. The threat is neutralized! Tikis are safe! The local outrigger club wanted some tiki skulls for awards, so I busted some out this week. Alas, poor Yorick! |

Thanks, Kino! The client provided the wood for these three 10 foot tikis, which made it easy for me. He still has 4 or 5 more, same size, that he wants carved! |

Thanks Mike! And thanks for the scary Christmas card. Looked like you were swimming in the Salton Sea! Here's what I did this week. Carved two tikis onto one log. Then cut the log in half, to get this. One finished Other one finished Today I started another skull, but it's bigger, maybe twice lifesize. [ Edited by: 4WDtiki 2011-01-08 11:47 ] |

Here's the newest skull. My first carving of 2011! :D To show how much bigger than the others it is: For scale, the small one is about the size of a human head. [ Edited by: 4WDtiki 2011-01-08 11:50 ] |
