First attempt palm carving. Look that pile of shavings!

Sorry guys, I just had to do it :D Rented a skybucket and trimmed all my trees this weekend. Carefully shaped them to be "pinapplesque". Now I need to haul off that mountain of palm fronds :(

Can anybody say thatch for tiki hut roofs?

S

Wait! Those are those pokey one's right? Never mind.

T

Yep, dont haul em off. Save em for a thatched roof! :)

They're only pokey for the first few feet (not like date palms). BigT, I know this probably belongs in another forum but... I had done a search earlier (TC and internet) on how to make thatched roof out of palm fronds but didn't find anything. Any tips?

T

I haven't done this myself, but I envy your supply!

BigT, I've got a layover in Houston Friday on my way to the Caribbean, want me to bring you some? :P
