Yes Vontiki, the Marq is killer! Some great twists on the classic
style.

That's pretty funny Drake! Today I'll stain THE TIKI and weather permitting ( got the June Gloom) I'll varnish with a satin finish, not the high gloss.I might just put lots of weather seal on it after the stain and no varnish or polyurathane, I'm undecided.
Thanks for looking!

Nice!
How do you get your palm wood so smooth?
Mine is always rough and full of splinters.
