You are THE MAN Benz, period.
I feel incredibly lucky that you have spent some time with me & showed me some things. You have probably forgotten more about tikis & carving than most of us will ever know...lol...

great stuff ben !!
I was in vegas at the tropicana in may 94' - all those tikis and those huts were still there. I feel fortunnate to have seen them in their original setting. Who knew that 10 years later i would end up commissioning you for a carving and get to see all your great work here on tiki central..... small world.
