Dan Zeadker was born and raised in Toledo, OH and currently resides in Delta, OH, with his business located nearby in Wauseon, OH. Dan retired in 2000 from General Motors Powertrain. Dan is married and the father of 5 children. Dan has always been a person who thinks outside the box. If he needs something, he builds it from scratch, from his home to trailers.
Dan has always had an interest in woodworking and carving. Several years ago at the Fulton County Fair, he saw a chainsaw carver, and said to himself "I can do that". It didn't take him long to perfect his craftmanship. Dan began with eagles progressing to bears, his line has expanded to a full range of animals, benches, garden art, custom made mantles, and commissioned orders. He began selling his chainsaw art at local shows. We call it happy art because it makes young and old alike smile.
In 2004 & 2005 Dan competed in the Annual Fall Carving Festival in Wooster, OH that benefits Make a Dream Foundation.
He recently completed 2 eight ft. bears for a cabin in Canada.
Dan will be opening his shop in Summer/Fall 2007.
