Very nice. It just gets better and better.
BTW, I love the new CD. You're right, the opening track is amazing! You should post it here for everyone to hear.
Nice job on everything!!

Conga, I like the way that double decker tiki finished up. Nice use of different stains. And that last framed mask - very unique. Like Polynesiac said, you'd never know that was fabric from the photo. I looks like some kind of elaborate wood inlay. Great work.

Congatiki-
That really is a cool piece of tiki work. I like all of the different background tones as well. Keep up the good work.

Simply wonderful! And don't you go giving me the whole 'I was just bored so I was tinkering around' story.  You are legit, anyone would say so.
