    Chainsaw carved stump Manitoba red maple owls and vine
    Beautiful Manitoba maple tree that is chainsaw carved sculptured in a Winnipeg back yard. Owls perched on top for the tree are met by a twisting vine stands 10 feet tall. Maple being a very hard wood, details well with the sculpturing tools but it does make the tools work for it. The carving is then burned with a torch to remove any fuzz then sanded one last time before coating in log home oil .Most oil base stain is obsolete now but there are still a some that are grandfathered because of the good reputation and great product. I would recommend a coat every 3 to 5 years will keep this sculptor protected many years.
