First chainsaw carving

[wooly]

It started as a joke as I was helping sis with some tree removal this weekend.

As I started to get the hang of things a little bit, I decided to keep going and gave that little electric saw a workout!

In the end, sis decided she wanted to keep him, and my plan to throw him in the firepit and starting over was over ruled,lol!

I'll definitely be messing around with more of this stuff in the future.

Hot dang , awesome craftsmanship again. I can barely paint by numbers. And I was the kid who put the square peg in the round hole

Thanx guys! That's only because I keep trying new things and always learning something new to use somewhere else down the road.

I get really bored working on the same kind of thing all the time, and try to keep things fresh and exciting.... even if I suck at my next attempt at something new.

You took to that pretty quickly!! Very nice work!!

Check out arboristsite.com at some point. It's mostly tree work and chainsaws but there's a whole section on carving, sculpture, and turning.

Wooly, is that a self portrait???.  

Seriously though. Fantastic job. Don't blame your sister for wanting to keep it. I would too.

Really cool, you are gifted! I have a Remington pole saw and have limbed and taken down a good dozen pines with it, best $99 I've spent on a yard tool

Wooly - I envy your artistic skills .    I can't even carve a Turkey . 

[DirtTime]

Would love to see what you can do with a butter knife and a block of oak.

 

On a serious note, came out great. Nice saw skills ya have going on now.

Crazy amount of talent in you Wooly.

Would you be interested in getting paid for one of those types of pieces? Ive been thinking about having one made for our house. Shoot me a PM if you are, and Ill let you know what I have in mind.
