Coming to you from my home tiki bar, the Lagoon of Mystery! After a record freeze killed the 30-foot (9 meter) Mexican fan palm in our front yard several years ago, I was faced with the unpleasant prospect of chopping it down and digging it out so we could plant something else in its place. It was then my wife suggested I carve it into a tiki where it stood. Really? The thought had not occurred to me, believe it or not. All of my carves had been small up to that point. Could I really pull off such a large carve? Well, I had the chainsaw, die grinder and angle grinder needed to make a go of it, so why not? What do you think--did I succeed or not? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
