can i order one of those carving stands!! nice.... Mucho Bonito! Braaaaaok!

Ficus?!! I heard here in the east, Ficus is lame to carve. Wonder if it's different or not.

Gracias. I'll leave the drums to Buzz. It's a palm ashtray comish for a major smoker. Plenty of work left here. It'll sit on the porch and have either a tin or brass hammered bowl in the top w matching eyes. Either mahogany or redwood stain or a blend of both. What do you guys think? Ben?

Yes Al. Customized Burro's are our business and business ia a-boomin'! Just select your design style (Tahitian, NZ, Hawaiian, etc.) and we'll get on it ASAP. Specify height 18", 24" or 29". Burros are pre-pay and pick-up only.

Right now I'm finishing a long overdue 2-D project for Onatiki's, some microtangs for hand excercise, a micropng for an upcoming special event and my most used tools of the season...




Thanks for looking. Happy new year all.

The one with the painted face is just adorable! If I had a girlfriend THAT would be the perfect Christmas present for her to wear.

Aloha!

Yeah! Keep those Hands Strong and Pain free. Exercise and pills, works all the time. Nice stuffs Hank, Love seeing the knife work its wonders!.

Head Shrinker and me got hitched.

Here are a couple of pictures of us as pendants that HodadHank carved on a nude beach. Well, I don't really know if he carved them on a nude beach but, anyways...



I may have to sneak pictures of her cute little butt & heals when she's not looking.

Thanks for the awesome gift Hank.

You must not have seen your sister in the last week Kinny. Her back is as straight as an ironing board now. Shhhhh! Don't tell your sister I got married.

Holy SHIT! Just as I'd hoped, a direction I never would have gone! Awesome, Hank!
Can't wait to see it.

Very nice, Very nice.

Spectacular! Nice work!

Hank, I'm Really happy to see all this fancy detail and see it done so well! Seems like I've missed a few steps in your learning curve.
Great work!

-Thanks Wild Bill. I couldn't have done it without you. duh! I can't wait to see how it looks when I get it back to inlay the abalone!

-Thanks DW for taking a peek at my thread and the kind words.

-Thanks Lake. If you decide to crank out a hundred of these, please consider cutting me and Wild Bill in on a few of those sweet, sweet greenbacks!

-Thanks Ben for all the encouragment when I'm feeling achey and sluggish. Honestly, I know you are watching and that makes me work harder.

OK, Here's the hybrid @ The San Diego County Fair w/initial work completed on my half of this super-fun collaboration. Like Antoni Gaudi putting a facade on a Frank Lloyd Wright, notice how I totally fuck up Bill's signature mod elegance w/ crazy-ass traditional Maori detailing. Yep.

Back to Bill for now.

Great pic, Hank! And for the record, here's how it looked when I passed it over to the Hankster. You can barely tell he did anything!

It's back in my possession now, and I'll do some stain and burn action to it hopefully this week.

Great collaboration 4WD and Hank. Super piece of work!

Yeah, nice work there. Ya definitely have some confidence in your cohort! Should look awesome when all done.

Love the skills on your pattern design! Beautiful collaborative carving.
