I'm with Gman, your next tool has to be a scroll saw. Start looking in the classified section of the news papers. You can usually find them around$50. Get one. Now

Thanks for the comments. I've been away for the last week, so I'll be catching up on all that you posted for the next couple days.
Bete and TGap- You two are from the north so you know how we have to goof around and really use our imaginations to pretend we are in the land of tiki. I'm glad you found it humourous, I had fun with the pictures.
Ben and Gman- Scroll saw is on the list.

----Really the story is this. I have three daughters and the oldest is now a teen- I had to prepare early for the dating scene. I have to freak the boys out somehow.
Here is the latest project. It is a dagger made from roadkill deer bone, not that they have deer in PNG, but my access to cassawary bird leg bones is pretty limited.
in progress
Finished- Thanks to Gman for the finishing tip.
Thanks for looking
JP

Nice job Johnny. I've been letting my stuff work in the mix for about 12 - 24 hours. Then a hit with 000 steel wool. I love the faces and work you put in there. I bet that's the kinda piece you could hold in your hands and look at for hours and see all sorts of different stuff, aye? When we spoke yesterday, I thought that was antler...I didn't know it was bone....Cassawwho what?? bird bone....from where?? Maybe try to get some dodo or archaeopteryx to work in next time........

I Agree JP, yo gotta start now building those freak out implements to scare the boys off and put the fear of tiki god in them. Nice one to start, that oughtta shake'em up a bit.

There's a lot of folks in old Virginny that would dispute that "Nawth" remark 
... many still believe that Richmond Virginia is the capitol of the U.S.!
But aren't you full of surprises! That deer bone carve is very creative... very well done! That should (as Benz put it) put the fear of the tiki gods into the neighborhood dogs..., er, I mean, boys. Good luck with those! I had 1/3 of that problem a while ago - now my one daughter is all grown up and on her own, and it's out of my hands. Whew!

JP...the dagger is sweet...the finish really looks good. When you make the move down south, forget a home security system on the house, you already got it...
