Norm Hardinge from Aussie Desert Cooler always gets a good wrap from the mags and customers speek highly of him. He also sponsors a tonne of Aussie rod shows too. Him being into radiators is fitting, cause hes getting a cool tiki...
Man that was lame. Its midnight, I think I should go to bed.

sweet marcus - amazing that you got that finish just with the chisels?? no sanding yet??
i have started another tiki with just chisels, no power tools but it looks like a bit of a mess, especially down in the trenches of the deep cuts... oh well gimme a few years practice maybe i could end up getting smooth lines like that! i wish...!

Harro - well dont give up - some of my early ones were very primitive - but you jut keep at it and your style will come through - I guess I am lucky because I get to carve everyday so I have probably got better from so much practice.
