I finally figured out how to make my photo gallery page accesible to all
Tapa Lamp Gallery @ Flickr
As I've said before, if anyone is in need of one or some of these, please PM or email.

I wanna see, but if I look, I know I will want, and if I want, I will get, if I get, MY WIFE WILL FREAKIN KILL ME. One of these days I am getting one, she actually liked the one you just had on ebay, so if she likey and I can hope and dream to be in the glow of a sweet Kahaka lamp someday.

These are all great. I specially loved the UFO lamp. My favorite, and probably the simplest to make, are the Bamboo track lighting.

The U.F.O. lamp was the 1st one I made. I miss that darn thing for sentimemtal reasons. We were tight.
It's now hanging above a table at Primo Kimo's Kahiki Moon. At least it's in a good place (not to mention cool and totally bitchin').

Yesterday I got my Kahaka lamp I won on ebay and it's a beaut. The wife and I love it and can't wait to hang it in the corner of living room over one of our big Keigs' tikis.

I just wanted to say that I ordered a large Tapa swag lamp from Chad last month, and the pics do not due them justice. The craftsmanship is top notch, and I wouldn't go anywhere else for such a lamp. Thanks again Chad, it looks great.

This one I've made to keep. I've wanted a lamp this style since I first saw one. It now rests in the corner of my bedroom...
Update... this hut is hanging in the Kona Club in Oakland, Ca.
