I want to thank everyone for your kind comments
and for your thoughts.
Remember my bud I carved the 4 table legs for?
He's getting the coffee table together.
It's no average coffee table.
It holds everything from coffee to ammo.
So he has requested an extra embellishment.
He gave me the wood, it's walnut.
About a foot long. 3/4 in thick.

That table is really cool. I assume it has hidden compartments?
It was great meeting you and talking shop at Hukilau.

This solid chunk of mahogany is about to
become a box of some nature.
It has a lizard on top. Go figure.
Now I know what your thinking.
What's Tiki about that?
Guarding the box content on each front
corner will be 2 big head moai
if all goes well.

Lots of action in the creating thread.
15 days & I'm booted to page 2.
Just hacking on my box.
Lizards are harder to carve than you might imagine.
