New Bremen chainsaw artist Tim Kuenning adds finishing touches to a 51/2-foot eagle holding an American flag. Kuenning has been commissioned to make a similar 8-foot design for permanent display at the National Guard Readiness Center in the Pentagon. The smaller eagle, at upper right, will become a trophy for an upcoming race at the Richard Petty Driving Experience in North Carolina.
