Hi.
Some progress on my 2.nd log.
Here is me yesterday, in the garage.
Keeping this one as simple as possible, to cut down on carving time.
T.D: carvar ute el inne, beror på väder o vind å storleken på tikin förståss

hey man i was going to try to draw it out and carve one similar to your small guy but right from the beginning it took a wrong turn. i think it was the wood that i was using because it was just not working. that or its me and im not too sure how to fix that.

congatiki:Tanx! I like big tikis too! It´s the nice slow process I like the most. And that you get to use your whole body, almost like a gym-workout
TikiDuddy:Dont give up yet, try it with smaller tools and better wood! To make the small tiki, I only used "small" tools, so the picture lies a bit with them big tools in front.
Also be careful when drawing the outlines, its not easy to fix later. If that dosnt work, get som better tools, it worked for me.
Some progress on my 2nd.
