What A Man Did With This Tree Trunk Will Blow Your Mind One tree, four years of work and an indescribable amount of talent: that’s what it took to create this incredible masterpiece. A famous Chinese wood carver chopped down a single tree and tirelessly worked on it for over four yearsto make this piece. Your jaw will hit the floor when you see what he created.It all started out with a simple tree trunk…
