Hang10Tiki stuff

Ah, that’s a shame…you cut up a perfectly good whale

Grog- only a caveman could hold a club that big

HotTiki- and fed it to the sharks. Lol.

Wow you have been busy. The Woodland creature has the most perfect nose, good job. The baseball bat is better as a tiki. However, if you use it as a bat in the future the ball will stick in his mouth.

Looking forward to the alligator.

I hope Lake Mead starts filling up soon.

I used to watch Grandpop put a little 3-n-1 oil on the saw blade…made for some easy cutting and no pitch hassle. Just saying…

Wendy: thanks for the drive by, glad u like. But, not a gator!

HotT- now u tell me.

Lil more

Any guesses?

Bahooka Rufus

Oops. That's a huge fish?

Is that the one that got away ?

Tom- lol Wendy- lol Will- until now

Mahi mahi?

Bamm

You got it

You will never catch Covid in that mask. Glad you got your fish going.

Got out early before it got up to 100°

MAHI!!!!! (aka Dorado, Roosterfish. Used to be called dolphin but I think they've gotten away from that)

Looks awesome

Restaurants got away from Dolphin because people felt like they were eating Flipper.

Wendy- no vid but dang hot

Mike- thanks

Will- made me laugh out loud

Next is a pectoral and pelvic fin from the leftovers

Egg-zactly!!! LOL

Hi Mike

Pectoral fin done

Next I’ll see if I can attach it, fingers crossed!!!

If all goes well should look like this:

Wow, love all the detail. This is a fun project. Do you have a stain picked out?

Hi Wendy Thanks

No stain:

Fin fits:

Looks good. It's not the same type of fish as Rufus from Bahooka, but we should call him Rufus. Either that, or you need to carve Rufus to go with your Mahi Mahi.

Lol

Blue

More green

And more blue

Blue highlights and eye time

Waiting for this to dry

I thought I’d do a quick project

Saw this online recently

My brother is a big reader

So I thought I’d make a few books for his library

Lol

I loved watching the color changes as you perfected the fish. It's beautiful. Those books are so cute. Tiny titles would be fun to add. Summer Heat by Fanny Sweat for example.

Dan suggests Under The Bleachers by Seymore Butts.

The Golden Stream by I.P. Freely.

I turned Dan into a famous butt model so that's where these come from!

Thanks Wendy, if they were a little bigger I might try that, not sure how my woodburning skills would be on these lil tiny books, but you two are funny!

Done

Good catch my man! OH wait, No ocean, Is it a desert Dolphin?

Good job, He looks fresh.

Those books are adorable. Are they light? They could make earrings. Girls will love them.

He looks good, but I wouldn't trust him. Something about him seems a bit fishy in my opinion.

Will N Cave man: What is this a comedy show? Thanks for stopping by, glad you like it.

So many fun projects here, great job.

Thanks hilt Always nice to be hilt approved

Still in sushi mode I guess

Rufus?

Grog- not a Pacu fish, sorry.

Teak oil time

Fin on

Up next, trip to the dentist!!!

Oh my gosh you are going to have an aquarium! Pretty and cute. Well done too.

Thanks Wendy. Cheers.

Done!

Looks good. You sure that's not Rufus. It looks a lot like how I remember him.

Awesome Jon!!!

And then some!

Thanks guys

It was a fun one

I made a few of these cut outs a while back, broke the lower portion off sanding it, forgot about it, saw it yesterday, so, sanded it to 3000 grit, used Howard’s orange oil on it, was not sure what to do, saw some lil hooks in my junk drawer: key rack!
