Many thanks to you all for the compliments.
Benzart, unfortunately you're pretty close on the time estimate. We are trying to train monkeys to help us out, but they just sit there drinking their Mai Tai's and laughing at us.

Absolutely lovely.
I was thrilled to get an up close look at your body of work while visiting in Tucson.
The Bali Hai is super cool.

nobody puts more blood (wink wink nudge nudge say no more know what I mean), sweat, and tears into their craft than the cheeky tiki's.

Those are gorgeous! I'm especially partial to the Bali Hai. Very, very nice. I'd love to give it a home!

Tikiwahine, thank you for the very kind words. You should give the mosaic thing a go. If you have any questions about the process we can try to help you out.
GatorRob, cheers for the comps. Bali Hai isn't for sale right now, but if you like, I could put you on our mailing list so that you'll know when it does go up for sale.
Swamp Fire and Monkeyman, you guys are great. Thank you for the continued interest in our (bloodletting) endeavors, it means a great deal to us.

absolutely unreal website!!! i just looked thru every pic of every piece on every page and each one was better than the last!! amazing stuff. I can't decide which i like the best!! it's a pity us folk on the wrong side of the world can't get to appreciate them in person... maybe i will have to order the cards or the coasters as consolation..
well done!
harro.
