I LOVE IT when you guys show your works in progress! It's like watching the tiki version of "How It's Made." Thank you!

thanks for the kind words and encouragement ! when I'm in the middle of carving a TiKi I start to wonder what it looks like to someone else......so thanks again.
I'm hoping to finish this guy up soon.

I think that I'll call this guy finished !!!!!
five foot two inches tall, around a foot wide and really heavy even though its dry
I probably could have done more sanding but I was anxious to get him stained
thanks for following his progression over the past two months......this was a fun one to carve!
Now I'll have to find a TiKi lover that appreciates him "The Keeper of the Coconuts"
