- Marcus Thorn is a Tiki Carver from Australia.. he specialises (or is known for) BIIIIIIG tikis, I'm talking 8ft BEASTS!! When I was at his house I took a look down the back where he carves and saw a couple of HUGE tikis partly carved.. VERY COOL! He spends alot of time in Hawaii doing the carving thing.. He's the coolest and nicest guy - really into rockabilly, hot rods and a BIG Setzer/Stray Cats fan.. When I was eating breakfast with him we discussed him carving a Stray Cats Head gear shift knob for me... I'm still waiting for it
 .. In any case, a very talented man with a great personality  your Rascal.... You said you only own a few tiki mugs yet youre schmoozing it up with a badass premier Queenslander Tiki carver like Thorn.... sheeze!! I must own a Marcus Thorn tiki.. I feel embarassed for even posting that tree trunk I carved in front of my house. that dude can carve... plus he's not like a great deal of these carvers that are like burn out surf hippies... he's one cool cat with TALENT!!  | |

He sure is one cool cat with talent  Oh, and I can't see that pic you posted.. so here's another   Kid.K Sooooo, I'm pretty big fan of Marcus Thorn - Both the carver and the man. Kid. | |

I'm only a "four-eyes" when I'm driving. what do you think it'd cost to ship me and my car over to the motherland? ps. for those interested in MT's stuff: http://www.tikibeat.com.au/ | |
