This unique gizmo that attaches to a angle grinder allows me to carve those tricky hard to reach places.

]]> Snapping turtle @ Fairy Lake -step 1 to 3 http://staging.cancarve.com/custom-carving/snapping-turtle-fairy-lake-step-1-to-3/ Wed, 18 Oct 2017 21:55:52 +0000 http://staging.cancarve.com/custom-carving/snapping-turtle-fairy-lake-step-1-to-3/ This was a challenge for two reasons; 1/ the tree was three stumps that separated about 2 feet above the ground and 2/ I wanted a realistic sculpture of a snapping turtle that only a mother snapping turtle could love.?:-)

He’s holding an actual black walnut nut.

]]> Red-winged blackbirds @ Fairy Lake -step 1 http://staging.cancarve.com/custom-carving/red-winged-blackbirds-fairy-lake-step-1/ Mon, 16 Oct 2017 22:05:33 +0000 http://staging.cancarve.com/uncategorized/red-winged-blackbirds-fairy-lake-step-1/ I had three small stumps all together. They’re near the walking path by the museum. A high profile area. Darn tricky carving little bird into little trees.


]]> Ducks @ Fairy Lake -step 2 http://staging.cancarve.com/uncategorized/ducks-fairy-lake-step-2/ Thu, 05 Oct 2017 21:20:44 +0000 http://staging.cancarve.com/uncategorized/ducks-fairy-lake-step-2/ Final day for getting my ducks in a row. Most challenging was the male duck feeding at the back of the line. Eventually got the look I wanted.

Got a half day of carving in. Worked on the wings and chrysalis’. Feeling good about it indeed.

I’m tackling the biggest stump first, a monarch butterfly feeding on a milkweed flower. Chrysalis’ hang on the leaves. Much still to do. Muscles getting a good work out!
