Default A Chainsaw Marlin by Schaef2
My son David did this. He's 24 and I've been teaching him for just a couple of months. Then I went away for a weekend and he carved this. Chainsaw/grinder/sander/spar varnish. See any potential here?

Seeing the wonderful things you do in wood had to have a big influence on him, but it also must be in the blood, great job!
