H hewey Tiki Socialite Sydney, Australia Joined: Sep 14, 2004 Posts: 4283	H hewey Posted posted on Sat, Mar 24, 2007 2:56 PM Very nice. Not much needed to tikify it :D As an aside, down under we get more S/E Asia influence (particularly Bali) than Hawaiiana, which is fair enough given where we are. Most of it, just take out Buddha and insert a tiki and its rockin TC style.

LS Lake Surfer Tiki Socialite Milwaukee, WI Joined: Oct 21, 2002 Posts: 3417	LS Lake Surfer Posted posted on Mon, Mar 26, 2007 12:24 AM Good stuff Ben! The versatility of bamboo is great, and gives your business a wide variety of settings to work with. Whether a jungle or a beach, Hawaii or Japan, bamboo works. I've noticed a huge trend towards bamboo for building materials, flooring is real popular now. Bamboo grows faster than trees, and withstands a good deal of abuse. Looking forward to more pictures.
