Morning

[ Edited by hang10tiki on 2023-12-17 06:34:20 ]

The perception of color is such a miracle and your sky proves it. Hey, the new huge carving...is it a bear trying to split the log in half to escape?

Hi W

Colors were amazing

Good guess, close, it’s a small but heavy stump, I am attempting to make human hands trying to get out of the log

Fingers crossed, I may have put them to close, we will see

In the meantime:

Oh no !

A lo-no !

WILL it be ??? We WILL see! Time WILL tell.

Mornin

I wonder how this WILL come out

Hmmm, What WILL it be? Had to look up Jelutong, interesting.

Aloha Mike. 😂

Mornin all

Every time I reach my hand in here, I think “there must be a better way”

🤔

?!?

💡

Cool tools come full circle to serve them selves.

They WILL help themselves!!!

Aloha and good morning

Coffee, water and apple cider vinegar in water

How about a little FaceTime?

You're gonn'a own this place some day.

I can tell.

Lol

That's a really cool rack for your chisels. Fun tiki you are carving. You are officially now a machine with all you create.

The extra credit you could rack up from this carve is mounting.

How much can you make ?

How much can you stand ?

How much can we take ?

Wendy- Thanks

Will- it’s a good day for extra credits

HO HO HO, here we go!!!

Will- I have seen the light

That's a lot of progress but remember the saying about alcohol and sharp objects!!! Do you have those special cut resistant gloves?

Merry Christmas 2023.

Wendy- awesome photo, thanks for sharing

If the small sharp hand tools are out, the hand holding the “tree wood” is gloved

Hope everyone had a good XMAS, we had an amazing dinner at a friends house!

Two more magnetic tool racks up (on the right)

Never ends

What are you gonn'a do with all those chisels ?

I’ll think of something

Or

Use em like chop sticks

Getting there

Damn dude! You've been busy! Lookin' good

Mike: Lol

Will: Thanks for more tips

Last 2 big flags cut

Chillin with da pups last night

Those are a couple of tuff looking characters.

You should send them to collect any money owed to you.

Will- great idea

Yo Will, Lil more in the tight spaces

Made a larger flag cross, I think I like the smaller ones better

So I made 2 more

Sanded and stained the 2 large flags (ready for stars)

A great morning!!!

Such a perfect comment there's nothing left for me to say. Right on!

Did you paint the tiki steel blue or is that the lighting? Well done no matter what.

Those flags are really super special.

Happy 2024.

Hi W- no paint, just lighting I guess

Flag #3 done

Sanding sanding sanding

All right, you're dialing it in.

Ya know, when my girl left. I was a Lono.

Will- Hope u had a hallmark moment and sent her a thank you card. Lol

Ok

I saw an awesome chainsaw carver (Michael Jones) make something kool.

So I decided to try to make one for my next-door neighbor who has to put up with all the noise I make carving. 😆

Hope it works

Let’s try

Back to the heavy pine log

Chisels:

Angle grinder:

Hint: his last name is FOX 🦊

😆

Time to star up flag #4

1/2 on, eyes need a break

More on the pine:

That was a fun run of photos. Dust is our enemy but it sure is fun to write in. You sure have some great ends for your carving tools. The fox is going to be really cute. Happy New Year.

Thanks Wendy, happy New Year’s to you two as well.

So all 4 flags are done:

And branded 😝

My older brother will be here in 4 days, I’ll have him pick the one he wants, I’ll ship two others out to my “bruZins” and keep one for myself.

Lil work on the fox face:

!

Cheers all

Great looking flags! Happy New Year Jon!

He's already cute! I like the JON on the flags.

50/50 Martini

(Made little 1 oz samples to try different bitters)

1/2 oz monkey gin 1/2 oz dry vermouth 2 dashes bitters

1st one: orange bitters

Next 3

I have the genes that make me hate bitter. I've only had one cup of coffee in my life. I only drank it because I was freezing being a saloon girl at a charity event. I ran the Roulet table outside and it was so cold.

Loooove Expresso

I love deep carving. That's looking fine.

Painting by Gwen Rosewater. It made me think of you being home enjoying your pups.

That’s awesome
