Thanks Guys!
This one is only half of the log .... this is the other half of the two wall pieces I did earlier. I found that big old log and was very disappointed to find it was split down the middle after I de-fronded it. But it did turn out three decent pieces so that was cool. The Tang trio would look great as a full 360 log, maybe I'll do one like that some day ...
Thanks again and Have a Great Day!

Just about done with this trio ... pulled out the soldering iron and did some tattoo work ... I swear all three of them cringed when I got to burning their you-know-whats!
the three Tangs:
... and the whole wall tiki after the dark stain behind the Tangs:
I'm just leaving the Tangs natural but for the tattoo burns ... the poly coat will bring out some color .. Just the poly and the bamboo hanging brackets left to do and this one is done!
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!

Took a break and went to watch some spring training ..... now it's back to work!
Finished up this little Lono pendant ... still have a few bones to do but am stoked about some new logs I found so might just jump back into some bigger stuff!

I guess the project for today is to build a new carving horse! This 6 footer was just a bit too much for the rickety old thing!

Thanks 'T' .... for you or anyone else who is thinking of marketing your work, I got that banner from Vistaprint ... the wife got a Groupon deal for $70 worth of goods for $17 ... so I went for it and got that and the T-shirts .... for $17.00!!!
...The rebuild of the carving horse lost momentum when the Ryobi batteries went dead .... so I finished up a shorty version of the BIG MOUTH .... for some reason that tiki has become a favorite so I'm making a few smaller versions ... this is 12 inches high ...
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!
