Your new lamp looks perfect. And its cool that anybody got anything from the Vic warehouse but you got something extra cool and then went and gave some TLC to it. It looks old yet new old. like its been around but not weathered from a river.

Ok Tom your light went out yesterday.
Here is all 30' 3'' of chain.
I think it works out to like 70 cents a foot.
And thats with ten bucks of shipping.
So this is a great cheap way to decorate your bar.
Or tiki christmas tree garland.

How'd you get that chain to stick to the wall like that? (hehe) Joking aside -you have the lamp thing down pat, always looking forward to seeing what you have in the works for us next...

Ok so we just got back from Cali and wow what a trip!
Went to a bunch of places and took a lot of pic's.
I would say that half of my photos were knots.
Yep, pictures of knots.
Not just any knots, but ones from old ships, like the Star of India.
Went to the San Diego ships museum, Go if you can.
But Skip, what does that have to do with tiki?
In the next few posts I will show you how you can use some knots for tiki decor.
Here is a great book I found on knots and how to tie them.

The Eye Splice and Back Splice were always my two favorites to do.

Thanks for the pic Bora Boris!
It was great to meet you!
Also thank you for guiding us around after Tiki Ti.
I gotta say having one of my lights hanging in the Tiki Ti is
such a great honor, it really is.
That place has such tiki history and a great vibe to this day.
Thank you all for a great time in Cali.

I got a person in California, Florida and one in Hawaii
asking at this time about lights.
I put the pictures up so they could see what I have for sale at this time.
All but the resin tiki light is for sale now, that one is going on ebay.
I sell em when I got em, no need to wait.
