So, here is what I am doing at the moment.

One of my best mates is planing his 40th birthday to the end of this month. This is going to be a big event in our little town. There will be four bands playing live on stage (rockabilly- country, surf, streetpunk and psychobilly). A bunch of people have promised their appearence.

I was asked to do a kind of decoration for the stage. Two big tikis, one to the left and one to the right. But they are not a present, will be up for sale afterward.

I choosed two big logs of poplar for the project. Booth ca. 4.5 feet high and not dry nor.

Here are the results of this weeks work.

After debarking.

They´ve got some big knothole but I think, I can hide them.

A lot of drawing with chalk and graphite

Doing chainsaw work.

After putting down the saw.

And after some detailing with chisels and mallet.

The mallet ist for size-comparison.

After this session I really think, I can finish both till the event.
I forgo to put too much details on.

What do you think?

Thanks for your visit.
