[QUOTE="Twisted, post: 1845345, member: 43517"] I've never looked at a piece of wood and not thought of what I could make out of it, or as they say "being able to see what is inside of it." I turned a hobby of woodworking into a 36 year carpentry career but never had a desire to carve for a living as the thought of trying to please someone else was pressure that kinda takes the fun out and as a result my creativity suffers. I have instead just done it for a pressure relief and if someone acted like they loved it more than me, I gave it to them. I still am in construction (46 years) and still haul a lot of tools around with me, but I haven't worn a tool belt in at least 20. Would you believe my very first chainsaw carving made the front page of the newspaper? I was only trying to make something to put in the garden because it looked empty. It, along with many others through the years, was stolen in the night. One of the reasons I like carving in tree trunks or stumps as the ones in these photos. I started another one a few weeks ago but got rained out if and when I finish it, I'll post it here. I also have a tree on my place that needs cutting and I plan to make a ranch sign out of it and a few rocks on the place. [/QUOTE]
