    A carving that a friend of mine made at a local tree removal guys home residence. He's an amazing carver, this thing was carved into a HUGE sassafras stump.

    That is dang cool:thumbs:
    was it carved in place or carved then stuck back on the stump?

    My neighbor does some insane hand carving - little people to birds - ducks and even made an Armadillo for the former owner of my house - after he had wrangled one from the pool

    WoW! Amazing talent!

    On his website, in the bedroom section, I'd totally take the log bed with the buck and doe heads on the headboard post!

    I don't get it, why'd be leave his saw in the stump? Lol.

    Chainsaw carvers amaze me. I mean, I'm doing well to cut & stack straight even rows without cutting off my leg. Other dudes are carving artistic chit... Aliens I say.
