They seemed to have turned you on in a big way. I'm stuck working on Small logs here now so I guess I need a set of those Big Mallet tools. Here I am working on my little log By the way, Yes that IS the Ona Tiki Bar Lounge Wear giving me extre carving Mana for this tiki...HappyHappyHappy

F freddiefreelance Member San Diego, Ca. Joined: Feb 15, 2003 Posts: 3006	F freddiefreelance Posted posted on 01/27/2006 Beautiful Tiki! Is there enough room im the Tiki's "Mug" to put a little water & dry ice? A coat of deck waterproofing & a couple coats of marine varnish inside the mug should keep the water from soaking in.
T Tiki-Kate Member Yucaipa, CA Joined: Sep 21, 2003 Posts: 1700	T Tiki-Kate Posted posted on 01/27/2006 Another amazing tiki, Ric. I think it would look nice with a really light stain on the mug and something just a smidge darker for the rest of the tiki. Just my girly opinion. Kate

B Benzart Member Port Saint Lucie, Florida Joined: Jan 09, 2004 Posts: 10397	B Benzart Posted posted on 01/31/2006 YES, Ona, this guy Really came out as well as I expected. Just plain FanTasTic. You and Aaron's both create carvings that look loke they came right off a CNC Machine. Crisp, clean cuts, just perfection. I see the spirals down there too. I think you should start selling your work. This guy looks SO Good, I can't Stand it, I'm just gonna drool all over the place. Whats next?? don't be takin' no time off now.

O OnaTiki Member San Diego, CA Joined: Nov 24, 2003 Posts: 409	O OnaTiki Posted posted on 01/31/2006 Thanks everybody. The stain is Minwax, early american for the tiki and golden oak for the mug. The mug is not deep enought to hold much liquid. Didn't want there to be issues with rain retention. Off to the next one.

H hewey Tiki Socialite Sydney, Australia Joined: Sep 14, 2004 Posts: 4283	H hewey Posted posted on 06/12/2006 That lava looks kool. How about making a volcano lamp with that lava effect 'flowing' down the sides? And then use a 'flickering' globe to make it shimmer too?
