dude, that is awesome.
I'm a big fisherman myself, so I may have to create my own version of the "fish tiki".
I'm inspired!

Thanks, teaKEY.
an angle grinder with a flap disc works pretty well for carving LIPS

just a small, red TiKi playing the ukulele
I probably should do some more sanding on this little guy
he's a little rough

started a new somber looking TiKi today.
I tried to do as much chain-sawing as possible before I touched a chisel.
I think that the chainsaw is done....move on to chisels and grinder this week-end I hope.
thanks for looking

I guess that these two somber looking guys are done
still some rough edges, but done enough.

my first attempt at "in the ground" carving
the customer told me the style that they liked so I carved one.
they liked it so .....one down and five more waiting.

Nice work.
