I would like to thank all who bought my lights
at 2013 Hukilau.
It's one thing to say "great light" but when you plunk down
hard earned cash in these lean times, well that says it all to me.
I gotta say the best night at the Hukilau for us was Tuesday at Swankys, great to meet you Ted.
And just hanging out with a small group is my style really.
Thanks Tim!!
Also drinks with Danny and wife plus Tim in Kerns office second best part of Hukilau.
Would also like to thank all of the other vendors at the Hukilau, they are the unsung heros of the
event and for the most part pay to come and be part of the spectacle that is Hukilau.
Same thing for the bands really, Great bands all weekend.
We were hit right at the first hour and by the end of the first day Thursday
we had I think only 6 out of over thirty lights left Thursday night, and sold the rest
on Friday.
The big one I had went to Tiki Tom D, this is a bigger version of the one that hangs in
Svens tiki house.
Tom had me make 9 feet of chain for this light as seen in photo, Thanks Tom....
One light even went to England!
I love it when my lights leave the USA and keep records of where my lights go when I can.
If you did buy a light post a photo here or pm me here and let me know where it went.
Forget where the double bubble light went (one of my favs) but I know it was to
a cute Tiki girl who was very appreciative.
THANKS AGAIN ALL!!!

Time to restock and rebuild.
Here is a light I have always liked with a twist.
Don't know if I need to put paper on the top or not, wife says no.
Going to make more of these.

Thank you all, and thanks for the feedback.
"That lamp is great! Do you sell anywhere online?"
No not really, eBay is online so kind of you could say.
Making lights now for Christmas on eBay.
For the most part I try to get some lights(3 lights) up on eBay before
and then after Christmas, and then a few in the spring.
Here's how you can tell that it is a Tikiskip light...
First the sockets are all signed and have my logo plus they are
the kind of sockets that really screw in not that push in type.
Also I have over ten foot cords on all of my lights as I hate short cords.
There are a few of the over 200 lights I have made that do not have logos
on them,(15?) these are the first lights I made.
Thanks for lookin!

Skip,
I haven't checked in a while. The deadhead in the basket is great. The float lamp is really cool too. Looks like you did OK at the Hukilau.

Thanx TP!
Going to get to start on lights now that summer travel is
done for awhile.
Got some great stuff to work with and ideas to try.

Skip, it was great to host you two for a change!
And you are right, I need a fish float lamp. Or 2. A pretty big one, but I have to think about just how it will hang. Not a ton of head room, so, think about the length of the hanging rope up top. I think you are also right about blue. Holla and we'll get it/them ordered!
That'll really help complete the Hideaway!

Tim it was great to see yer place, looks great!
One of the best home bars we have been to.
This is the light you and about 75% of all the home bars I have seen need.
A light to read drink recipes by.
Got this one for Blake here in Ohio but his wife put a moratorium on new lights
in his bar.
On the blue light Monkeyman wants a blue as well, Have two that may work for you both
will let you both know when they are done.
Again thanks for you and Stephanie's hospitality.
Déjà vu
