I know you can do it just hang in there.When you think you messed one up just keep carving on it.That may change the look be at lease you don't have to restart.The way i look at it you can't mess up because your the one carving it.That just gives you chance to make it look like its your own ideal.ENJOY

I love your little guy! I think he would adapt well to a larger chainsaw carving. I do mostly smaller carvings with hand tools but have been playing with a new chainsaw lately. Thanks for the idea!
