Chainsaw Carved Fathers Day Gifts

[rossjones13]

Hi,

 

So I've been carving for around 9 months and my usual pieces are mushrooms, kids chairs and owls. I'm getting there with my owls, but I'm still not 100% satisfied.

Anyway, a friend asked me to make her an owl for her dad as a fathers day gift which got me thinking about my old man. So, after I finished her owl, I carved my dad an axe.

Love the axe, I did a few to try and shift for fathers day, but they sell well anytime. I guess it depends how much you charge.

 

The owl looks great too...I started on mushrooms and got so into carving I do bits off alsorts now...

how did you do the writing on the wood, it looks superb and very neat, was it a standard soldering iron?

[Woodcrafter]

Great job he'll be over the moon with that. Love the owl colouring beautiful piece of walnut.

your axe looks brilliant!! av bn wantin to do one of those for a while, hope mines turns out as good, keep up the good work

[Pete Hart]

Just curious Ross. Did you carve the axe out of green or seasoned timber? I'm no carver by the way just fascinated!!

 

Ps Very nice present for your old man
