Monkeyman,
This is a great event you are hosting, I wish I could go but I just relocated to Austin, TX from California. Not a Hole lot of tiki here... except for the Hula Hut.
The mailing option is a great idea (As long as you have good instructions and not IKEA instructions)
The lamp looks great, good job!
I will e-mail you for a Kit as I need one of these lamps for my new home bar.

In addition to the festivities/activities of lamp building... Bosko has kindly offered to bring some of his rare vintage lamps with him for some fun show and tell.
Thanks Bosko for helping keep it fun and interesting.
My garage is wired for music... The Ipod will be shuffling or we can Listen to DVD's full of Gilligans Island episodes on the DVD player..
I will be serving drinks to those who can handle a glue gun and a little rum..
we will all work together...to make sure EVERYone is happy with the results of their project.

Careful not to glue your hand to the mug.

Aloha everyone, sorry I don’t post more often,
The first time I saw this post I got that giddy olde timey Tiki feeling, here was something I am/was way into. When I first started going to Oceanic Arts back in the 80’s the thing that most impressed and confounded me about their product line was their lamps, how did they make those things? My room mate Mark and I would go down, come home, do sketches of all the cool lamps we would make someday, but I never got around building one then. I can’t guess what I would have paid for the chance to learn all these skills way back when, but to have the chance to have all this knowledge back then would have been unimaginable. Any paying customers will have the chance to dig thru our Tiki grab bag, I have been cleaning studio the last few months and you’ll get to rut around in what I’ve dug up.
See you all there,
Bosko

Man, I am so glad that I will be able to make this event!
Monkeyman, Thanks for putting this together. As Bosko said previously, I have always wondered "How do they make those bitchen lamps?" Now I'll now!
See you all on Saturday!
