Ben - thanks mate - the top one is australian native coconut palm and the bottom one is pine.
Sam - I dig this style too - this was one of my early pieces - done a few years ago - but I still like him.
Hewey - Cruzin asked me to do an article ages ago and - they kept seeing me at everything either carving or with stuff on display or on stage for bands etc - given my connections with the kustom culture up here and they kept asking so I finally got it together and did it - they also asked if I could give them photos of my stuff (before the article) so they could put them on the contents page and I have got to know them all - good bunch of people and now consider them friends.

Pedro- shame about newsledder - I guess being a dad can take up a lot of time and Adams got a lot on his hands these days.
I would like to see your Moon eye tiki - do you have any pics of it?

I just looked up Pedro's interests:
Hot rods, kustoms, tiki art
Marcus:
tiki carving and hot rods
and me:
Tiki, kustom cars
Must be something in the water down here
The Hot Rod driving Antipodean Tiki Mafia?

Dunno if you can see the pics...?? I can, but that's no guarantee!
There's more on my website, but they're pretty bad pics:

The guy that carves them is a TC'er too.

Pedro - that is gavtiki is it not? I stumbled across an old post of his when i was looking for hebel carvings. I emailed him, but got no response yet. Does he still use his hotmail account?
Cool tikis. Cool to see the Aussie contingent on TC too.
