If you ever want a black velvet she specializes in dogs. In fact, she first did them on regular canvas. She can paint anything. Your dog's according to our news channel are the most popular dog in the USA right now.

Wendy- awesome. But u can paint anything

Well, my guess is that you and Sew Tiki took off for her birthday. I sure hope there are fun photos. Wish her an extra good one from us.

Hi Wendy- quick Reno trip (24 hrs)

That's our kind of vacation!!! I would like to eat all those foods, just add Diet Cola and I'd be super happy. Our next trip will be to come say hi in Las Vegas.

Your flags are special. We were on a trip and I tried to take a photo of the flag hanging like your carvings. The photo was just a silhouette darn it. DSCF4302

Wish Janelle a Happy Birthday from us.

Love the flag. You do these so well.

Dan is learning to type for the first time. He is doing "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog". and it makes me think of your carving. I'm sure looking forward to seeing not only you finish this, but I hope we see photos of its presentation to your really nice neighbor.

2024 is going to be a fun year of watching you carve and paint.

Aloha Wendy

Iโ€™m rather fast at typing, with 2 fingers. Lol

Both my die grinder and my rotary tool died today, off to Harbor freight for the warranty replacement on both

๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Yes I wood.

Deeper, Deeper, Carve (you got it) Deeper.

๐Ÿ˜†

My back just whispered:

โ€œThank youโ€

IMG_5437

Did they honor the warranty? Deep carving always looks best and you are about to come out the other side! He's very cute.

They did, 2 new tools. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

So, I wasnโ€™t thrilled about the 2 knotholes in the eye area, they were a lil off, and always a pain to carve or carve around. But no way to hide them, so, Iโ€™ll use em:

Next is nose and face fur, then sanding!!!

Brilliant to make eyes out of the knot holes!

๐Ÿ˜†

He's come to life. Perfect fix on the eyeholes! Your neighbor is a lucky person to have you reward him for all the noise. I hope there will be photos of the hand off when the fox is done. You are a talented artist.

Wow, thank u Wendy. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

Ohhhhhhhhhhh he is darling! I love him.

Fun times when surrounded by nautical decorations!

This year we will visit Max's South Sea's and I'll take a whole lot of photos.

Wow, it turned out beautifully. He looks happy too. How fun to do something really nice for a neighbor who is also being very nice. Well done.

Thanks W

The fox is a winner,

but,

Wait till your Bro try's to smoke one of those bad boys.

He looks bigger than you.

Oh Oh!

I bought a small box of rubber chocolates with my allowance when I was a kid. I left them at a friend's home to trick them. I waited to hear back. When I didn't, I asked and a parent said, "Oh those chocolates were so stale we threw them out." I lost my joke. )=:

I hope you get a fun response. You sure come up with fun ideas.

Will- nope, Iโ€™m bigger. And Iโ€™m better with a knife!

Wendy- thatโ€™s awesome

Done:

IMG_5671IMG_5672

That box looks convincing.

Good job.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

Wow, I hate smoking, but I love your creation! I also don't drink wine, but I love going to wineries! This is a fun work of art. Well done.

W- I get it

Ok, back to Tiki time!

Hmmmm

IMG_5771IMG_5778

You are teasing us, and I love being teased.

Morning all

IMG_5878

So the block of wood is too big to fit into my bandsaw to cut the bottom out which would probably take about 10 minutes, so instead I had to go old-school Japanese flat saws and chisels which took two hours ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Second dose of caffeine via the Nespresso machine in a pup cup! (Pup pics, not actually their cup, my cup, lol)

[ Edited by hang10tiki on 2024-02-07 09:11:25 ]

You have the best luck ever! Did you take home the $700+ ?

Ah, that's a real challenge for carving. I know you'll do well.

Did you have the cup made or find one already done? So cute.

Wow, bunch of good stuff going on in here. You're living large man!

Love that log carving!!

Wendy- Yes the wife won it all, this should be a fun carving, and I had the mug made with our pups pics
