Man quits trucker job to be a chain saw artist

Man quits trucker job to be a chain saw artist

HOLLISTON -
Ten years ago, Jesse Green drove past a two-foot-wide section of cut-down pine tree and began to carve out his future.
"My mouth was watering when I saw that tree," said Green, an Ashland resident.
Green, then an art major at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth, didn't wait. He lifted the tree into the back of his van, took it to his house off campus, and drove to Home Depot to buy a chain saw.
Yesterday, the 30-year-old budding artist pulled the cord to his Echo chain saw with its 20-inch bar and cut away the bark and wood of another piece of pine as a three-dimensional caricature began to take shape.
Wood chips flew about him as Green used his chain saw to exaggerate the broad smile of his soldier friend, Mike Mueller of Somerset. His former Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity brother leaves for Iraq in September.

I had looked into doing this as a hobby
Found a school surfing the web
I think it was 1500 a few years ago
I set up next to one at a festival I was selling at,
and it looked hard and loud
Probably get carpal every thing syndrome
