Wychwood Halloween Competition 2012

@ sativalover420. Nice holder

@ farscaper. Wowzers Are you a model maker or something 'cos both of yours have been top-notch

@ brandonflav. I had probs viewing too. I've re-hosted and re-posted them - here:

Some people use the wrong links on those sites to post. If you can't see them we can't either. Most of those sites have many links for us to use. I personally always forget and have to edit to fix more often then not.

I wish! That would be sooo sweet to do that for a living! I just love to carve, doesn't really matter what... wood, clay, fruit/vegetable. I Just love to carve stuff and rarely get a chance to show it to anyone... so when i have an opportunity I cant help myself and get a little excited... i spent longer than im willing to admit on that thing... i had to take a meal break and several breaks for dabs LMAO.

Im just happy to share with everyone... cause otherwise... these pumpkins would have gone in the trash with only maybe half a dozen people ever getting to seeing it...

so enjoy and lets keep those pumpkins rolling!

Edit... i made that last one with only a paring knife, an exacto knife and a wood plane... no wasting my money on a carving kit LMAO

^ I love the pic of the witch outside, too creepy!

Thanks for re-hosting them for me J.R.R. Token, sorry to put you to work for your own contest lol. Do you want me to re-do it correctly or do you not mind?

There once was a pumpkin that grew in a field, and next to the field stood a great big hill. On top of the hill grew a plant that bore buds. The pumpkins could already tell by the smell, they loved. Then one night the pumpkin got bored and went to the top with the rest of the gourds. On that hill the pumpkin got high, now he sits here with blood-shot eyes.

I know, I know, im no poet.

Here lies Great Stoned Pumpkin:
or Jerry Gourdcia (It's the best I got)









I couldn't decide between two versions of my cheezy ryhme.

There one was a pumpkin that grew in a field, and next to the field stood a great a big hill. On top of the hill grew a plant that bore buds. The buds grew huge from the sun's rays of love. Then one night the pumkin got bored, and went to the top with the rest of the gourds. On that hill the pumpkins got high, now he sits here with blood-red eyes.

I dont know how to get the pics on here. They are from my iphone.

Fix the pics please so we can see. I like the first poem one better.

Ode to the Wychwood Hallowe'en Contest (2012)

Ghosts and goblins, come on out!
Dance and sing and cavort about.
Make yourself a carving plan,
Carve that pumpkin best you can,
And hope the Wychwood lass approves
Of your methods, digs your grooves!
If she thinks your style's the best,
She'll lift your gourd above the rest
And bestow on you an awesome prize:
A lovely way to vaporize!
With amazing entries in already,
And more to come, sure and steady,
I know the contest will be heady
By the time my poem's ready...
Will a watermelon be the winner?
Or oklahomie's munchie dinner?
The butternut of eerie beauty?
Or skyline's clever spooky-cutie?
If she wants it super scary,
Might she fall for three-eyed Larry?
Is she a fan of Spiderman?
Of what t-dub did with his hands?
Or of some other worthy guy?
She might even like my silly try.
I don't know how she'll ever choose,
Yet I hope I'll hear exciting news:
That though their pumpkins bring her glee…
What she really loves is poetry!

There once was a man from Nantucket
Who said of combustion, "Eh, fuck it!"
It was vapor he sought,
So a Wychwood he bought--
With a stem made of clear borosilicate!

*********************

There once was a man from the Shire
who made Wychwood a name to admire
Wooden vapes made by Tokin
Great vapor--no jokin'!
Oh-ho! How I preach to the choir!

Thanks for the fun contest, JRR! Good luck everyone and Happy Hallowe'en!

The hair is spaghetti squash.

oh my, you all did so well. I want to see more by tomorrow night. BDV nobody made what you were thinking yet...maybe we should give them a hint....I was on your train of thought since day one. The original posting of the squash would have been the best on to do it. I still like that one a lot even though...

Decided to give the Halloween rhyme a try. The slant rhymes aren't too great, didn't realize that pumpkin wasn't the greatest rhyming word.

Twas a contest based upon the medium of pumpkin;
Thus far a plethora of beautiful art …. Ain't it somethin'.
Some a portable up thine sleeve;
But, all vaked on this hallows eve.
And, it's just another day of business at fuckcombustion.


I did another pumpkin last night, it didn't come out too good. Was supposed to look like Cap'n Chronic, pumpkin wasn't big enough to do what I wanted. Now lets see if I finally get this image posting correct.


Also here are a couple I did last year.

And I found a good use for combustion.

Couldn't help myself I had to try and keep the trick or treater's away this Halloween so i could eat all the sweets for myself! Hence the Jimmy Savile pumpkin! Now then! Now then!

(It won't be the most popular design of the year (also because some on here won't have a clue who he is!) but it was well worth the time and effort )

Also being the stoned idiot I am, it was no surprise to find I had made a mistake by misspelling competition and the word Halloween ..







And before any of you ask - No they are not my nails

This is my official entry:

No @#$%, MT! I'm just going to say my idea*. Don't have the time and with the @#$% going on in my life right now, just not in the best of places. However. I AM very much enjoying everyone's entries! Thank you all.

Love your avatar, btw. You look familiar. Do we know each other? Perhaps you once were a picker, a grinner, a lover and/or a sinner? Were you a joker? OH wait... I know! A Smoker!!! Use to play your music out in the sun.

*Blatant Hint: How come NO ONE thought to do, "WYCHWOOD" with JRR's tree? Some people here, could NAIL it. Though, I'd pick a different font. Sorry, JRR. I recognize that 1990's font. LOL!

Well thats me although obscured .
Having real fun with that pumpkin bong. !

Hey hey all,

Halloween is here and were getting closer to the close of the competition. So, any of you ummers and ahhhrers wondering if you should enter it's time to 'nut up or shut up' (Zombieland reference )

There have been some great new entries The GF is starting to sweat a little about choosing the winners as the standard by everyone is so bloody good! We have some seriously talented vegetable carvers on FC



I started my Halloween "celebrations" last night with a bit of a camping trip - and it turned into a bit of a horror!!! So, my mate asks if I want an overnight camping trip to the New Forest - me, him, some food, a vape, some salvia, beers, a bottle of whisky and a bit of a laugh.

To start the fun the camper van battery goes flat as we're filling at the petrol station. We have to push this whale of a camper van out of the station - sending my calf muscles into spasm - and flag down someone to give us a jump.

So, we get that sorted and head off into the forest and find a nice place to park up for the night. The camper has an old fashioned wood burning pot stove in the back - now your probably thinking what I did when I first saw it - "is that legal and is that safe?" - to which my mate assures me it's fine and he's used it plenty of times before without incident.

We light up the stove and begin the festivities with a drink and a vape. After a few hours we decided it was time to hit some salvia and go for a walk. So, off we trot for a night time forest walk with the full moon overhead lighting the landscape and creating wicked shadows on the forest floor. We were probably only walking for 15 minutes, by which time the salvia had warn off, before we decided to head back to the camper to grab a beer.

From a distance, as we were approaching the camper, I could see a light on. I asked my mate if he left any lights on - to which he replied 'no'. Something went 'Ping' in both of our heads at the same time and we started sprinting towards the camper. As we got closer we could see thick black smoke billowing from the van and the distinct orange glow of fire!

After that it was a frantic rush to gain entry to the camper, get the back doors open and all of the burning wood and furniture out. It took about 5 minutes to put it all out and get everything fully extinguished.

After we had calmed down and the adrenalin had abated we decided that the best course of action was to get back to civilisation and tend to our wounds. Thankfully the van drove and the head lights worked, but aside from that all of the other electrics were shot, no rear light or indicators. We made it back safely and sorted ourselves out. We both sustained quite bad burns on our hands and destroyed the clothes we were wearing - but aside from that we were/are fine.

I have to say that I'm thankful to come out of it relatively unscathed, I appreciate that it could have gone horribly wrong. We could have got back later to find only smouldering remains and spent a cold and frosty night in the forest, or got back in time for the stove gas canister to explode on us.

So, all-in-all I would say my Halloween is in full effect. I'm off tonight to a Halloween party - lets hope it's not as fraught as last night! - but it is Halloween.....
