Aloha everyone!
Apologies for posting as a separate topic, but I've undertaken several unsuccessful attempts to locate a very useful thread.
The thread was specifically on how to make tiki lamps of different styles and gave photos and instructions. I've found similar threads in my searches, but not this one in particular.
Any help offered would be greatly appreciated.
Mahalo!

Finally my search is over! Three days of playing with the wording and finally found it. Thought about maybe reposting this as savage renewal, but it appears than nobody is interested.

Ali'i has listed detailed instructions on how he made some of his beautiful lamps:

Kahaka makes beautiful lamps, too, you can use his posts for some inspiration once you're comfortable with the basics:

And I like all of Monkeyman's stuff:

and Kahaka & Monkeyman would certainly gladly build you one if you find your ideas outstripping your abilities with Mod Podge.

Thanks for the suggestions and links Tiki and Freddie!
Found stuff because of you two that my previous searches hadn't.
Mahalo to both of you!
