I chainsaw carve , it a hobby i picked up this past year. I believe I am getting pretty good at it. I am looking for a sealant to preserve my work for many years.
I have nothing to add, but so admire your craft! Love these and you certainly have the hang of it! Look into selling at local craft fairs - these always do well. 😍
First check with a hardware store, then go to Homedepot or Lowe's, and go the seasonal dept. Where they have lawn ornaments. See if you can find a wind mill or a single statue of a girl or animal. Then ask if they know what they used on the wood for a finish. This could be helpful, and you should experiment with say 3 small cans of different sealers on some scrap wood you have. See what you like and return the other 2. Good Luck. I admire you skill, it takes a lot of work.
