Hey Penn, come by anytime.
I'm usually out on the front porch with the dogs drinkin' a beer with the dust flyin' and the reggae blarin'.
It's always nice to have some company.

This week's creation:
And I sold a few tikis this week, so I have actually recovered about half of my entire tiki-tool expenses of the last year, so I'm pretty stoked.
I've been trolling craigslist & threw an ad in there in the barter section to see if I could scoop up some old longboards, motorcycles or whatever, & some dude called from my ad & has commissioned me to build him a tiki mailbox post for his house. A few more pieces sold and I'm out of the red & into the black (which is great considering the fact that I never really intended to sell anything in the beginning)!

I'm holding you to it! Next time I plan to come to Tampa I'm stopping to see you! Hopefully I can pick up a tiki from you! (that is if the wifey allows! LOL!) Seriously, it's nice to see a (semi) local doing good work, and I really would love to put one of your tikis in our lanai or yard!

Well, my friend had a big Luau style shin-dig at her pool and asked me to do a tiki demo. So I made this one & we raffled it off.
In addition to this, I drank half a bottle of cheap tequila, broke a boomerang on some chick's butt (she wanted to be spanked.....why I used a boomerang? I'm not sure), and my friend Joe had to go to the hospital after dislocating his hip doing the splits (what guy does that???). It was a fun party.
Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

Dude! Your work is killer!
I'm and old-school Tampa resident, now in Brooklyn, and I'm glad to hear you're selling stuff. Alot of my friends down there are into the whole lifestyle, so who knows maybe one day I'll see some of your work in person!

Well, here's what I got done this weekend.
So, I have a new chick, and she digs the tikis. So basically she chills at the pool while I make sawdust. It's working out nicely. And I caught some really, really nice little tubes last Sunday in Cocoa Beach. All in all, August has been a pretty good month! Here's a link to a pic of last week's waves. Fun stuff. Perfect longboard waves.

Thanks bro.
Your stuff is coming along nicely too.
Trying to get a sunshade and a generator so I can take my operation on the road.
My front yard looks like a woodshop exploded out there.

dig that new toothy guy. And as a native Floridian for the first 24 of my 29 years on this planet yes, for the love of all that is just and good in this world, get a sun shade!

I hear you bro (and thanks for the props on the new tikis).
But yeah, here lately it's been hotter than 2 rats screwing in a wool sock up in the attic on the 4th of July.
Gawd. Looks like I'm doing a tiki demo at a surf shop grand opening tomorrow. Should be fun (if I don't keel over dead from heat stroke)!
