Seeks, This one turned out PERFECTLY, you are a Perfect Carving Machine. I Love how you carved the detail Deep but not so deep it takes away from the piece. How do you get it SO Perfect?
All I can say is WOW WOW WOW.

Cyborg. Too good for a human to carve that cleanly.

seeksurf -
This is my one-thousandth post on TC. I'm honored to have this post on this thread, commenting on your carving prowess and the resulting pieces of A1+ art that grace these pages.
I've been watching for a while and admiring for just as long...I really can't offer anything new that hasn't already been said here but let me just say that I understand the buzz created by your work, man!
All the best, keep up the inspiring posts and maybe one day I can see some of these works in person.

seeks, maybe I'm the one one, but I'm interested in how you're mounting that tiki. I see you're pouring a sonatube for a concrete base, but how will the tiki be attached? A closeup pic of that would be nice.

skootiki - Mahalo for the WOW
Watango - Thanks for checking Stub out again.
claq50 - thanks
Benz - 1000 Mahalo's I dont know? I look at him and think about him 24-7 when im knee deep in. It takes alot out of me. Again thanks to you Im a ok carver. Your works have given me most of my inspiration and drive.
GROG - Thans for the non-human thing. But why does it hurt my
body?
little lost tiki - Mahalo. I try hard.
TikiG - Mahalo Very kind of you. Would be cool to see ya @ the tiki bog some day.
4WD - Man i did not take any pics of the rebar. The closest pic
is of tall lono. I use 5/8 Rebar and drill as far as my base allows. I pour monkey glue in the hole and pound the rebar in.

Seeks.....you're an inspiration. I plan on finishing my KU very soon and then i'm going to start on my next full body. I know what I am capable of and you have set the bar that I plan to achieve.
