Johnny's back!
Wow, all kinds of goodies going on over at your place!
Love the Marquesan poles! You're going to have a blast carving those!
You always pick the worst time of the year to work on these big projects... let's hope Winter takes it easy on us this year!

Nice stuff you have going on there Johnny.
I'm very interested in that 'slip gong' ?
Looks like it will sound cool and be real fun.
Can you explain how this works and how you are carving it ?
I really want to make one if its as cool as it looks.

Been too lazy to take some update photos. Besides I've spent a lot of time hollowing out the drums. A lot of work that really doesn't show any progress, but finally today I took some. Here is a couple updates on the slit gong and the three legged drum. Notice the carpet .... Carving inside is a lot easier than outside in this temp.
Gman the frozen tundra was 3 degrees this morning.
Thanks everybody for the compliments.
Seeks, only the slit gong and the three legged one are drums.
Lake, thanks for the comments. Winter is the only time I have to work on these, but this year I think I am going to get a heater for the pole barn.
Kino, Slit gongs do sound pretty nice for a piece of wood, they boom pretty loud. If you want to make one, send me a PM and I'll be gland to send you some tips.
Mooney, usually my markings for a tiki is usually a couple chalk marks.
Benz, I check in every day, and yes I'll be around for a long time.
Clarita, thanks for the warm welcome!
Thanks for looking,
Northerners Stay warm,
Southerners Enjoy the warmth.
