Thanks Ben, Yeah first one. Kinda liked it, but do not like having to pay shipping to get them. Do you know of a supplier here in Florida that handles white pine? Yellow pine is plentiful, but yuck.
I'm not going to make the Hukilua this year, but plan on being there next year in full force. Are you going? Look forward to meeting you some day.....

Gary, your tikis are hideous! And I mean that in a very very good way. I'm really impressed with your work.
Is it just me? There's about 20 or 30 blank posts here (same at work and at home computer). Am I missing something? I'm trying to figure out which ones are the white pine.

Aaron thanks. The only white pine is the first one pictured...the rest is palm.
All the blank post come from two things:
1. I deleted MY lengthy post to try and keep the pages to a minimum.
2. Everytime I post a new pic I hit reply to my own message to bring it to the top of the creating tiki forum, so it does not end up so far down nobody can find it. Too bad you cannot delete your own post all together. It would alleviate the blank spaces. Someone needs to talk to Hanford about that I think.
Cool man, thanks....

Gary that wall piece is sweet. One of the things that I would like to see more carvers attempt. Can I ask what that piece runs cost wise?
Never mind, found it on ebay.

Thanks Tiki-Toa. Yes, I have four different styles of mask that I created to use for different things. Some go on bar fronts, wall hangings, door faces, cabinet doors... etc. Private e-mail me for prices if your really interested. I make a strong effort to not use this forum to sell my work. Others do, but that's them. I just show it. Never have I ever said anything was for sale.
Glad you like it.
Gary

Thanks Gary, and I respect your work and you for how you do your bizness, especially in light of certain occurences in the Collecting forum.

Thanks, just private e-mail me if interested. I do not use this forum as a selling tool.
