July 30, 201313 yr comment_10886 My daughter wanted me to build a bird house for her. She manages a Tiki bar in FL, I thought I'd make her a Tiki birdhouse. I looked at some pictures on Google and took some features from a few of them. The center hole in the head dress is real, the others are fake. I shipped it out last week and she should be getting it anytime now. Report

July 31, 201313 yr Author comment_10887 Â It is carving, bandsaw carving. I use an eigth inch blade on a 10" (old) Sears saw and use belt sanders to shape the finer surfaces and rounded edges. I ve done about 20 different ones, I'll post a few more. Report
