Description First chainsaw carving~


Will post a better pic after it has been varnished
I watched a youtube video and learned this idea. The feed tray for the birds fits in the square, or might drill a hole and light it up.
Anyway i am thinking of making these and some bears and owls
Trying to be creative!!!

I will try anything to make some money My shop is right on the highway, so as the weather gets better I can set up and sell these chunks of wood

I just finished a set of log supports for a storefront here in town(stripped them of their bark, cut them to fit) so I had a three foot piece left over to try my hand at
It is not super hard to do David, but safety is sooooo important... Leather chaps while cutting is a must!!! And a very sharp saw chain
Thank you David!!
