Watching me carve is about as exciting as watching paint dry. I'll probably be working on a pendant.
I'll have some of these with me
This is my latest, übertiki.

Love that übertiki, Dave. You just may be the next TC craftsman to be duplicated by the rip-off guys. Those are all good but don't be suprised to find übertiki soap bars, lighters or breath mints.

Hey everyone, when exactly is this event again? Is there room for another carver (me) to join in for some funky carving? I recently acquired some eucalyptus logs today, and have ideas burning, as well as a new tiki piece I'm starting entitled, 'Crackon Tiki.' I guess Tiki Lee is the mastermind to talk to about this? So, Lee could you let me know if I can come carve, I want to chainsaw carve and I have alot of hand tools to share if that sweetens the pot. Email me at 7centnickel@gmail.com. Do you remember me? Because I recall the great discussion we had about wood.

Lee, thanks for starting the Oasis Carving thread! And since space is pretty tight, I'll be working on a sign for my home tiki bar. No big log or carving horse to lug! I'm traveling light.

It's a 10'x10' space. Divide that by howevermany peoples, and you personnaly will get 4.2 feet, sorry.

maybe I will just hang back and let you regulars run the show
I will stop by to see how you all are doing periodically throughout the event
10 x 10 is WAY WAY too tiny

Hey KahunaKev, this is part of Tiki Oasis, we'll be carving on Aug 16 & 17, but check www.tikioasis.com for all the other events going on.
Hey Capt, the SoCal Tiki Artists are a group of people who meet on a monthly basis to share carving tips and other ideas. We usually meet at someone's house, but were invited to meet at Oasis, and do our normal carving there. If you're interested in joining us, check the CA events threads for our next normal meeting, the Oasis event is very limited in space, so it's going to be for people we've carved with before.
Monkeyman - a 5 foot tiki would be pretty tight, but I really hope you can find a smaller piece of wood and join us. I always learn so much from you!
Oh, and just FYI for everyone, because of the limited space, we won't have any power tools at all.
