Carvers in Bristol?

[thor]

i recently spent a year as an arborist in canada. i met a guy who 'recycled' the wood: carving, making table tops, bowls, even log boats! unfortunately i didnt get to spend as much time as i wanted with the guy but decided i'd really like to do this back here in england. my uncle has even been good enough to lend me his alaskan mill. all i need now is some big trees to fell, and a willing person to teach me some skills. i'm finding it difficult to find people that do this kind of work, but i'd be willing to come and help out a carver/cabinet maker/anyone who's interested and got the means and knowledge to do stuff like this. let me know if there's anyone around the bristol area. thanks!!!
