Hey guys, welcome to my channel!
I started this little channel to share DIY projects with friends and family as we fix up the houses on the property we recently bought. Then everything changed the day I was gifted a small electric chainsaw for my 25th birthday! I found a love and passion for chainsaw carving and RAN with it! I quit my job as a nurse and am now a full time chainsaw carver, loving every second of it! The new focus of this channel is to share my passion for carving and maybe teach other carvers a thing or two along the way!

Amazing work still waiting on the Dino 🦖 😂
Wow! Amazing carve!
fabulous works. Can you tell me what wood you are using? thank you
Absolutely awesome work! I can't believe you've only been carving for a year! Keep working at it. I think you found your calling. And judging from the smoke, I'm guessing you're from pennsylvania? I'm from Newcastle and I know that we were absolutely inundated. I also noticed the Penn State shirt that you were wearing. I'm a very artsy person and do all kinds of art stuff. I would really like to learn how to carve with a chainsaw. How did you learn? Did somebody teach you?
Hi! I'm from Maine, 2 hours south of the Canadian border! Boyfriend is from the Pittsburgh area originally so we are in PA several times a year for carving events and to visit family! I honestly got a cheap saw, watched one video on chainsaw safety, and started! 100% self taught as most chainsaw carvers are :) The hardest part is simply just starting!
YES!!! 👏🏻 Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉🍾 Tay, you did an amazing job, and quick question, the guy who did that dragon fly, is he by chance from PA too? I’m pretty sure I know him, he lives out in Seneca and if that wasn’t his dragon fly I’d be super surprised because it’s his style 100% but anyways Ty for sharing, you do amazing work on all your carvings, such a happy good style, I’m stoked for ya
There were 2 dragon flys, one was carved by Brigitte Lochhead from Canada, im not positive who carved the other! However, there were lots of PA carvers, so it's definitely possible it was the carver you know :)
Good job
Absolutely mind-blowingly gorgeous !!!
Thank you so much!
All I can say is wooow!!!
Great job!!! Can't wait to see the ridgeway comp.😊
I love these videos
Looks great! How are the floors holding up after 2 years? Any shrinkage/gaps between planks?
We did these floors in two houses, the rental (the one in this video) and our house. The rental floors look just as good as the day we put them down! We put them over laminated flooring which some people made a stink about but they have held up great to heavy traffic! Our house we applied them directly to the plywood subfloor, since they are glued down they expand and contract with the floor. There is some gapping in the humid summer months but it's almost invisible to the naked eye, you have to be looking for them. Maybe 1/16", hairline gaps, close up around fall. Hope that answers your question!
@@TayMarie23 That’s perfect. Thanks for the quick response. I was planning to do something similar on top of my existing sheet vinyl floor. But just putting my feelers out there first.
Magnificent work, impressive. You were born for this. Congratulations young lady.
Incredibly amazing and awesome, very well done TayMarie 👏 Can't wait for the next one 😊
Wow . Looks so real .
Thank you! It's still available if you want it 😂
Thanks for sharing and good job! How many cans did you use to paint it?
what paint and stain are you using?
Привет. Отличный обзор фестиваля, лучший из всех, что я видел. Коротко и информативно. Вы мастер👍👍👍 Удачи.
Won your first competition! Awesome. I've always been in awe of all you carvers. I see a log, y'all see owls, bears, otters, you name it. I have zero artistic talent.
Hi, I just came across your channel. What an amazing job you did on that hawk, you are a very talented artist. Thanks for making this video.
AWEEOME!!!!!! CONGRATS
Wow! ❤
❤
Super duper, you won!! Congratulations!!
Great job, you are amazing 👍🏼
Congratulations on the blue ribbon 🙏❤️🙏 you obviously made the right choice skipping that quick carve to to detail on hedwig … just out of Curiosity what did you get for that work of art???
All items are auctioned off at these events, things tend to sell for less then they would private sale. Buyers get GREAT deals at these events! Hedwig's top bid was 1,800, I got 50% of that. Not ideal but it was worth the experience!
Super job
😳😳😳 You are a national treasure, thank you for making this beautiful carving! 👍👍👍
Fabulous Work. "Bravo"
Most carved bears don't even look like a bear - this one looks great!
Oh wow! What an incredible experience! I'm so happy you got to do that,...and congratulations on your ribbon!🎉👏👏👏🥰 That had to be amazing. Thanks for sharing it with all of us.🥰 Absolutely loved your carves, as always. And so fun to see some of the other carves as well.
Another amazing carving. Do you have any carving videos that didn't go quite as planned? Everyone enjoys blooper reels, not that you have one, but maybe you've had a few mishaps you wouldn't mind sharing...then we'd know you're human 😁 jk
That Ostrich reminds me of our honeymoon 40 years ago. My first ride and got thrown. Congrats on the win.😁🤣
AWESOME JOB you are Great Wood Carver
Congratulations on your blue ribbon! Would love to see the video of your next carving competition
That was great . You done a wanderful job .

You did a great job with the video and I would like to see more videos like this. Your masterpiece is beautiful even though I'm not a Harry Potter fan. Good Carve
Thank you so much!
Taymarie, since the start you have been an incredible artist and we all are privileged to share your passion, skill and carvings. It is an amazing accomplishment to win your first carving show. Congratulations many times over! You inspired me to start carving - although not on your scale. Just the fact you believe you can do it made me believe in myself too and carving is now one of my greatest joys! Thank you and good luck with the next. We would love to see it!!! 🦉🐻
Such kind words, thank you! I'm so happy to hear you picked up carving and are enjoying it! It's a wonderful hobby for both the mind and body! Nothing gets me so engaging like carving does, it's a wonderful feeling to be passionate about something 💛 Keep carving friend!
Congratulations! Your carvings are amazing, but I want to say something. Your video showed a lot of bear carvings. Your bear carvings outclass all of them many times over. No one can do the faces like you do. Keep doing what you’re doing.
Aww thanks! I struggle with the bears, they always get done to my standard but the process to get there is never pretty 🤣 Each bear gets a little better!
We attended the chainsaw carving show at Shippensburg and saw your masterpiece. It was beautiful and you definitely deserved the "best of the show" ribbon. Congratulations! Hopefully you'll attend next year's show in PA and we get to see you outdo the Harry Potter carving. 😀
So happy you were able to attend, all of us carvers appreciate the support, even if you didn't buy anything, just being there is huge to us! If I don't go to Shippenburg next year I will definitely do the Rendezvous in Rigway, PA! If you haven't been to that one, its worth the drive!
Congratulations! It was awesome! Loved the video and would love to see more. ❤
Congratulations. You're a star! Please keep making videos.
More coming up! My schedule slows down slightly in July so hopefully I can get caught up! I have a back up of about 6 videos haha!
Holy crap.So much talent gathered in one place!
It was sureal!
Very cool. That hairless cat was _freaky._ 😬😂
Food looks good, too 🤤
Hahaha he had 3 I think! They were so friendly and sat on his backpack! I forgot the gentleman's name but he is a very talented artist!
Great job are you sure you didn’t get a chainsaw for your 10th birthday?😂
Haha maybe I was an arborist in a past life or something 😂 I can promise you I had never even held a chainsaw prior to the little electric one I got in late August of 2022!
@@TayMarie23 Amazing. I whittle, and I’m going to try and miniaturize your hedwig. 😉
You did what I would do do what you know great job be safe
I seriously do believe you are amazing 👏 ✨️. Great 🇺🇸 job 🇺🇸 👍
Wow!!! Amazing Taymarie. Must have been remarkable to win 1st prize on your first competition. Couldn’t be happier. Wish you posted the events, I’d love to see them! I live in the northeast so I don’t mind a drive to see something like this. Here in NY I’ve only seen ice sculptures and it was always a magnificent experience. Congrats and would love to see you compete more often.
Unfortunately we don't have many events up this way in the north east! I'm in Maine. Almost all the events are in western PA which is a hike! But there are a handful in Central PA! Follow me on FB for more announcements!
love your work
