Awesome Awesome poles folks! I am still trying to get the smooth looking lines like so many have mastered here. I won't be selling them though. Too much time involved and injuries that have memories tied to the logs I affectionately hack on.

Tiki5-O,
Yeah that's a lot of tikis right there...and a couple of sore peoples too. Didn't feel like heaven when I was up to my neck in saw dust! That's about two cases of beer worth of tikis. Carve a little, drink a beer, carve a little more, drink another beer....you get the picture.
Thanks alot 5-O,
G.

Hot Damn!
You've arrived G.
Super sweet lines and style!
A nice mix of "old style" and "new school"
I would hate to let them go... tho' you're probably gonna make enough for a surf trip to Costa or a few new sticks...
And you can always carve more... that's what I always tell myself....
Keep up the great work!

Hey G, you continut to post Awesome stuff and in Big numbers. It's good to see an artist carving so many tikis. The more you carve, the better you get and the more you sell. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Benz and Lake for your replies and compliments.....It's hard work, but I still enjoy it. I'll keep one for myself one day. I have to get the 10 finished up and delivered on Feb. 5th......I'll post pics of the finished tikis when I get them done.

Those poles are beautiful! I can just imagine all the work that went into them, I mean a few more like that & Trish'll have to change her name to "Sandy!"  I hope you get pictures of them after they're delivered & installed, do you know if they're going to be spread out or set up as the Wall-o-Tiki?

Hey Freddie, thanks. You know it's funny you say that because I have been calling her that lately. She has been calling me dusty for quite sometime, 'cause when I walk around I look like "Pig Pen" from Charlie Brown. You know dust flying everywhere.....
I should have some pics after installation in the surf bar. The name is "Bay Beach Bar". It's not open just yet, but will be soon. Not sure how he is going to set them up.....Delivering them to south Florida to be put into a shipping container that will be leaving out of port on the 9th Feb.
Woooo Hoooo! "SUPER BOWL" here in a couple of weeks... This town's going to be ROCKIN" and a ROLLIN'!!!!
Be cool, G.
