A friend informed me that a storm knocked over an old cherry tree in his neighbor's yard. I brought a chainsaw and we cut several slabs each weighing 200 to 400 pounds. After resawing the chunks and removing rot, I let the pieces air dry for two years. This carving, done almost exclusively with hand chisels, took a month to complete. The 1% dremel work was done to reach undercuts in the folds of skin on the insides of fingers, where I could not possibly reach with any of my hand tools.
