Great piece Ben, as usual. Curious about what type of carvings you will have at Hukilau? Will we see alot of what we see here? I'm going to have to drain my savings account before the show.

Thanks Swampfire, You will see my usual stuff that you are all familiar with, plus a few new things thrown I hope. I have to start carving more for Hukilau if I am to have anything to show at all.I guess I'll start carving a piece for my waiting list and one or two for HukiLau. It feels good to be back carving again after a week that seemed like forever.
Thanks again.

Here is the Next Shrunken Head. I'll have to look on the list to see who gets this one.
My list shows Dawn Tiki gets the next Shrunken Head . I will have another one in a day or two for Chongolio

Thanks Chongo, the Daffey duck was perfect. or Bugs or who ever it was.
Raffertiki, thank you too. I know, 45? already?
Actually it is up to 46 already . I have 7 pieces for HukiLau so far.
That means there are 39 Benzart fans in TC who have my pieces.
I'd better get busy, need more than 7 for HukiLau
Thanks everyone

Ben, the piece you did for Gecko was awsome.
I am glad to have two of your pieces of Art, and hope to get on the list again.
