You got it Jon, looking forward to it! Thanks nicework, I think I read in your thread that a culinary mentor said never do the same thing twice, words of wisdom that I always go by. |

Glad you like Watango and Aloha Tex, and MDM! I have learned more from my Tiki Central friends then any other source and am happy to be a part of it. Guys like Will carve, Aloha Station, Tikiskip, Mad Dog Mike and Timbercove among others have given me great advise that I use every time I carve. Mike I thought I had that eye hook thing all figured out when my brother told me about wire that is wrapped in a bark- like substance but by the time I wrapped it around it was too thick to fit the tiki back on. I will now distress it like tikiskip suggested, or put the blow torch to it and see what happens. Thanks!! |

This piece of noble is finished, painted in lime and rum flavored tones. "Punchy's Brother" be his name and is loosely based on the old Hawaiian Punch dude. [ Edited by: cy 2015-03-29 17:51 ] |

So interesting, it looks completely different from the front than it does from the side, like two different pieces, great carve. |

Thanks Will and Big T, money in the bank! Aloha and H10 I knew I was taking a chance by painting him green, but after the initial shock I like him. A great observation hil, he does look a lot different from one angle to another. I have mixed feelings about the Marquesan I started. [ Edited by: cy 2015-04-05 14:38 ] |

I'm looking forward to it a lot H10, see you Thursday. Thanks for the encouragement tikiskip, it is always hit and miss with me but Caliente is always my best, now when are you going to get into the art swap, dammit? Here is a couple new ones started this weekend, a 6x6 piece of unknown barn wood and another noble log. [ Edited by: cy 2015-05-10 14:27 ] |

Always a pleasure to get a satisfactory response from you Will, and also thanks to amate, the weather in Oregon has been fabulous for the last few weeks! Here is "Skeptic", a sketchy, pulpy, piece of noble that I wanted to complete for the Tiki Kon event here in just a month. |

Hey cy, Sketchy came out great. Love the contrasting color.
And you're tearing down your barn for materials?! That's dedication! :P |

Well, not yet ready to tear down my barn for the sake of tiki BigT, but if I get short of lumber all bets are off. This cedar chunk has been a work in progress for the last couple o' years. It will hold shot glasses, mugs, bottles, and knick-knacks from past experiences. [ Edited by: cy 2015-06-21 20:16 ] [ Edited by: cy 2015-06-21 20:52 ] |

Thanks Scot, I edited my screw- up as that one is called "No Wake". Besides a leaky floor, there is not much worse for a house boat dweller than a speeding boat in the neighborhood, hence the name. I added kiln- fired glass inserts to "Darwin" and will be bringing him to next week's local Tiki Kon event. Beautiful, warm to hot weather in Portland, hope to see you here!
