the home depot that had these was in hawthorne cal. I heard they had them in simi valley also.Check the posts regarding these in the "search" area of T.C.. One of the posts has the mfgr. info there. They were $37.50 each, the mfgr gets $40.00 plus shipping.They are solid heavy wood, good stuff for the outside or cheezy projects. For REAL carvings, see tiki diablo or gecko or any of the GREAT carvers in our midst.

I just found a crate of these at the Home Depot in Sylmar. Across the street at Pet Supreme, one can find Moai pieces for an aquarium. Who knew there was tiki, besides my home, in Sylmar?
