I dig your work, I am sure you will do well at oasis. You have some great designs! I saw in an older post that you also do soap. I just launched my tikisoap on ebay, a project I have been working on for a year. I would like to send you a free sample for your expert opinion. If you are interested just PM me your address and pick a fragrance from my auction. Search: Motiki. Hope you sell out at oasis!

Thanks a lot! Yeah, I'd like to check it out and, likewise, I'll send you mine as well!
I'm currently revamping my website:

http://www.suburbanpagan.com

and adding all of the new stuff that I've been making as well as my "classic" line!
We can bump heads on materials used and where we get 'em! By the way, I'm about to fire up the soap part of my tiki factory for the Oasis. I've stocked up on my candles, candle holders, necklaces, etc. but haven't started my new batch of soaps yet. I've been busy trying to make the coolest tiki lamp I can make now! I'll post that when it's looking good!

I like your site, you are into alot of different items. You must be a very busy. I do some carving and woodworking but mainly for my Tiki Garden, although I do plan to sell some advertising pieces for my soap when I get a chance to work on some. My son did my website: http://www.tikisoap.com I think he did a great job for only two years of community college. The pirates that patrol my site are not very friendly, I would keep that tiki torch away from their ship! Good luck with your business.

Anyone know where I can get a few cakes of tiki soap for everyday use? I have a few unused bars of "The good stuff" but I'm looking for something I can use and not worry about it wearing away to nothing. It's the same dilemma with tiki candles.

Gosh, a genuine Benzart soap carving it may end up in the too good to use pile next to the Amway tiki bar I have. I think I'm last on your current list so if it's not an issue any good sized bar will do with coconunt scented a plus, but even Lava Soap would be fun. So please add a few bars on the last tiki and I'll gladly pay costs and postage. Glad your back on line, this place just wasn't the same without your occasional showpiece carvings

Thanks NT, It is Nice to be backThat sounds like the plan so you got it.I'm not talkin about takin away work from our soapy guys, just quick, down and dirty 5 minute tike in a bar of soap.I grabbed one of my wifes Nice red candled and carved it up in 3 minutes and blew her away.Soap is slick.

By the way , you are on the list for a 6" Witco mask, which I got approval from Keigs to do , so no flak from the nut gallery.

I'm pleased to hear it, I had a plan B just in case things got hairy, and thanks to Keigs for being a good sport. I'll speak to your doctor about letting you carve more than an hour a day.
