No further progress on the Moai quadruplets, but I started a new tiki at the chop, worked on it more today, and here it is.

Glad you like them, Nelva. I'd hate to have to start over. 
Here's a pic of the chop tiki, which I finished on Monday, which makes it a 3 day tiki. I can't keep up the 3 hour tiki pace. 
This one was not a commission, so it's available...

I finally went back and finished this tiki from a month or more ago.
It's 5 feet tall, and is a trade piece, for front and rear axles for my truck.
That may not sound like a deal to you, but I'm happy.

So today I finished this one:
A couple bought one like it two years ago, and wanted another to go on either side of their front door. It's 3'6".
Then I started and finished this:
It's gonna be a fencepost, I have three more to complete the order.
It's carved out of an 8' peeler core. I left it full length, but the customer will trim it down to 6' when he installs it.
There was still sunlight, so I personalized my carving sawhorse:
Tomorrow, back to the real job.

Now why didn't I think of that? (I still have to decorate my chisel boxes too.)

Hey Wheeler,
You should borrow Buzzys, or Mieko's burner and Tikify that little red borro on your saw horsey.
