Love the "weathered" finish, Octane. I was just talking to someone about that method the other day. It will be neat to see how the poly enhances the look.

Yes, Very Nice Looking tiki. I can see you used a lot of good old elbow grease to get that skin so smoothe, just like a baby's butt. Be Proud and move to the head of the tiki class today. Well Done

dammit Octane, that one kicks booty. I'm even more disappointed you weren't around when I was in Pismo Beach. Beautiful piece.

Damn, that's smooth & clean and detailed. NOT easy with fan palm, but you made it look easy as always. Clean and classic, excellent finish...
