I really like the Tribute to Tiki Bob. You have some excellent carving skills there fella. Love all your work.

Nice job, Johnny!
What's up with the shield with the backwards letter?
The drums! The drums!

Thanks 4WD, leeliz and Bowana. Sir B, the drum was a gift to my brother. The letters on the shield are his initials.
Today, after getting back from Queen K's party in Palm Desert I put a burn on the Nu Ku.
Next up, some stain.

Damn jab, Theres some Awesome tikis hanging out at your place, I suppose you carved them all? Of course I Know you did and Excellent works too, you are really raising he bar there. This KU, with his deep detail is the ruler of the yard. maybe he can quiet that mad drummer down a bit?
Keep up the nice work.

Thanks BenZ!!
After staining the Ku with some English Chestnut and some ebony stain, It looked a bit too dark to me. so I sanded it to make it look more lighter with highlights.
It's rained a little the last week, so I'll wait a few days to put teak oil on.
Put some finish on the "Tribute To Tiki Bob"
till next time, Aloha!

Thanks MP. It was so nice to finally meet you at Oasis!!!
Here are some pics from Tiki Oasis '09.
took the boys out for a field trip
made some tiki frames
I had wonderful time at Oasis. I got invited to carve with Bill, 4WDtiki and Billy the Crud. I brought some wood to chop, but there was so much to see and so many peeps to talk to, I didn't carve at all. Thank you guys for inviting me!! Can't wait for next year.
-Johnny B.

The real Jab! That's funny! I was just thinking about you today when I saw a roll of black bamboo fencing in that fence company's free box down on Morena. I was going to call you about it but figured there'd probably be bugs in it or something.
Buzzy Out!
