Man carves stunning wooden replica of Bayeux Tapestry

A grandfather has carved a wooden replica of the historic Bayeux Tapestry - despite missing FOUR FINGERS. Jason Welch, 43, has always been a dab hand with a chisel but didn't know what he was getting himself into when he started his latest project in 2011. He decided to create a scale model of the 230ft tapestry - despite having lost three of his fingers in an industrial accident when he was just 19. The grandfather-of-two hunted for weeks before sourcing the 25 five foot planks that he needed for his project.
