Lake Surfer,show at outre went great and the piece I carved sold which was kool,but unfortunately
decided to split a few months later so I'll have to come up with a replacement which is kool.
I'll posts some pic's of this piece soon pre and post split.Im currently off the chisels due to a run in with
a car on my pushie in which I came out the worst with a broken hand complete with pins(AWESOME)!
Cheers Watango

Caveman DOES know how to carve tikis and that's the most
important thing around here. Nice work, I have a sore neck from
twisting around to see 'em, but I love the carvings.
