Just one more woodspirit stump carving

Hi gang just liked the way this one turned out thought I would share it with you woodspirit people. Eastern white cedar short but thick about a fourteen inch log or better and about just over two feet high.

Looks great! You chain saw people make me want to learn how to use my husbands chainsaws for carving.

Way cool Collin! Just curious....What do you use to handle a large carving like that. I don't have a farm hand available so every thing gets moved by troll hand. I'm putting a 3" angle iron frame up to hoist my stumps up to work surface and onto my pickup bed when it goes to a new home

Elwood I dont use anything but my body strength and sometimes I recruit my young neighbor to help me lift it. At 66 years of age I am getting weaker and cant lift what I used to but I keep on going. I would really love to have a back hoe or a Bob Cat but they are way too expensive.

Colin,
Another great woodspirit. If I saw it beside the road I would know it was yours. Hey, I have a question. Since I am dabbleing with chainsaw carving now, what's this about canola oil?

Sounds like another great one Colin! I have a stump in the backyard I am thinking about tackling.
