good luck fishing. BUT PLEASE don’t stop posting pictures. take a break but I cant get enough of looking at these. there is a place up in Avon Minnesota right off 94 that does this. I believe he used to be a wrestler on or in the old AWA. his work cant compete with yours.

that turtle shell is awesome. I take real shells and make clocks with them!

Wow that’s talent. Don’t know what you do for a living but I’d quit and start carving full time. From the pictures you can charge top dollar for your work.

Anyway to contact you outside of this website?

^x2 if anyone has information or a website/facebook to check out buschman’s work for purchase…I’m all ears

PM him

AWESOME STUFF! For only doing it three years, you have some SERIOUS talent! I would’ve guessed you’d been doing it most of your life.

I absolutely love seeing this post! Bushman awesome artistry!
I do some carving, but not with a chain say. Here’s a few pictures

X2.. Good work Droptine!

Here is a super cool one that I carved last summer.. The shark is black walnut and the base is eastern red cedar drift from the Mississippi. I used copper rods for mounting and soaked them in salt/vinagar to get a patina on it. Took more time to carve this than a 6 ft eagle but was worth it.

Very nice work!

I dont want to drown this post with photos but have to put this one on here.. Think this was my favorite carving I have done so far. When I started carving this was my ultimate goal. Took a 9 ft piece of white pine that was 34 inches in diameter. Worked on it for 5 weeks.. This was a couple years ago now

Buschman, do you have a website with all of your work?

I do not.. Just a backyard hobby carver. I don’t want to advertise and give the impression I am doing it for a business or anything like that. It would be different if I was doing it for a living but already have a day job and real bad fishing habit that takes up most my time.

I wish I had a talent like that. My artistic level is maxxed out if I successfully draw a circle.

I assume you do commissioned work, though? Or is your yard and house just full of carvings?

Buschman have you ever carved a walleye or have any available for purchase?

Nice work man !!!

I am not running the saws as much as I was a few years ago. I have sold quite a few and need to sometimes.

I have quite a few in the yard and at the house here.. I do sell some but usually is not my intention when I pick what to carve… I just get a bug in my head to carve something and do it.

Thanks for the kind words guys!

I do have a pike/musky carving out of white cedar and could send you photos. No walleyes right now. I do plan to carve one here one day.
