Kirby,
Torture that grinder until it fries. Sure beats stone/shell tools aye? Sorry, I got carried away Man, use what ever you have available to do the job, and what ever makes you happy. Sounds like you enjoyed the angle grinder? Maybe we can see more Kirby carvings around here now? This one is slick. I dig his hair and brow. Kirby Rocks!

Kirby, forgot to ask, when are you gonna post a pic of that surfboard with the tropical painting. I think it would be a great submission for that new A Stuart Gallery show.

Kirby, anything that takes off wood & gives you what you want - don't knock it. Being a real "purist" in any sense is BS in my opinion, anyways. Chisels, chainsaws, sandpaper, harsh words - whatever gets the job done! BTW, I really like that your tiki looks like a Kirby painting. No mistaking the style!
