Mahalo's friends for the nice welcome back.
Creative Chimp, thanks and putting a beer holder on a bike is no problem at all.
In fact, we have a trailer that holds a beer keg and one that converts to a cocktail bar on location.
Thanks Seeks, glad to be back. Thanks Mudbone and thanks Benella.
Benz, the hooknife has become a great friend and I treat him with a lot of respect, thanks for the Welcome.
So now I have to fill the belly of the Marq with something tasteful. But first a field trip to the city of Rotterdam where het wereld museum (world museum) has a great display of Oceanic carving. They wouldn't let you take pics but there was some pretty cool stuff on display.
After that we ended up in Holland's only Tiki bar for a few cold ones, diner and cocktails.
 
Came up with 2 ideas for the stuffing of the Marq.
First I started on a Tang, wich is almost finished.
And then I carved a skull, that's finished carving and sanding.
I'm gonna stain his eye sockets and nose a little darker and seal him.
Thanks for readin all this.

G-Ruha, Glad to see you back in action and happy that you have found a companion and friend in the hook knife, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Love your Tang and the Skull is really cool.. Bring us MORE!!!
