Watch this wood carving tutorial to learn how to make a peek-a-boo raccoon stump sculpture using chainsaw and power tools.
This free, in-depth video tutorial walks you through the process I use as a professional wood carver to transform a salvaged tree stump into an irresistibly cute decor sculpture. And not just an art piece - it can also serve as a practical rustic-chic table or seating.
This project combines chainsaw carving, power tool carving, and hand-painting to create a unique sculpture.
The possibilities are endless beyond raccoons - maybe you'll carve different animals peeking out from the stump! Bears, squirrels, owls, foxes... whatever your imagination sees!
Watch the video below to learn how to create this project and bring a touch of nature into your home through wildly unique carving creations!
