We also have a guy in the area that does this he will take a tree that was toppled in your yard by a storm or on purpose and turn it into a work of art so cool

@medicjimr - cheers Jim, ive often seen these finished, but never had the opportuity to watch one start to finish, was incredible to watch this owl appear from inside the log

[bushcraftbartons]

Some people use chainsaws to carve ice sculptures too.
