Hi hang10tiki, how to your hold the wood while chipping away? That's a cool root ball for the head of your next big tiki. Wendy

Nice start on that marq! I'm no expert, but make sure that root is not too young/too short .... I snagged a truckload once and then Bill Collins (4WDtiki) informed me that they were junk ....
if it has these splits on the bottom it is too young/short and will dry up to crap in a while .... I had 6 of them like this ... carved them anyway and one has already deteriorated to the tiki gods and the rest look like dried up prunes!
hopefully, it is a good log and you get a great tiki out of it!
Have a Great Day!
