Okay Chiki, for some reason I have to try to make a bigger one, (some things just can't go unchallenged.) I like BIG tikis and since I might be buying a skid-steer loader this year, might as well put it to good use. What kind of wood did you use? Are you really going to put Mai Tai's in it? and drink out of it?

Gotta say it again,, Unbelievable, I really love your Lines, the way you bring things together, That Eucalyptus IS Very hard wood and has a Nice grain. I've seen the color grom a Purpilish red to the Bright Yellow. Those logs cut into 4 # slabs make great garden Stepping stones, carving the wood almost Always Kills tools and ends up with Deep checks. Pretty wood though.
We need more Pictures, No holdin' out.

Chiki, so then if you are pouring anything into it, (with palm or euc.) you'll need a container or liner to go into the largest mug. Liquid will seep right thru palm and euc is poisonous.
(I've been referring to the giant mug brah....what kind of wood?)

Damn, Chiki, save one uh dem mugs fo me! You'll be at Oasis Thursday, right?! I'm gettin in line early!
And that frame for Miles' Tiki Ti art: It kicks so much ass I had to borrow some *more* ass to be kicked. Great work!
Now if I could just afford one of those tiki stools to rest my over-kicked ass on!

Great Mug Chiki. Unfortunately, from you I expect nothing less than top notch work.
Excellent.
