Magic Carpet Bench

Labor Day Weekend is here... not that it makes much difference around here...
I'm making progress on the latest project called "Magic Carpet Bench" from this 7,000 lb. piece of Indiana Limestone. 
  It'll have a flying carpet floating over a rainbow with the Sun underneath and billowing clouds on either side. 
 The view from the other side - a long way to go before it's finished... Here's a short video of 800 lbs. being trimmed off with the hydraulic chainsaw:  https://youtu.be/mCO52cmIlos
 While I had the saw out, I cut a 1,500 lb. piece out of another block of stone.  This will be the next project called "Truth"  or "Throne of Truth".  Here's a video of that process reduced to less than 5 minutes:  https://youtu.be/RrOodjnZGcc
 Stone is a good place to catch some rays...
... or catch some Zzzz's....
