Please, everyone... STAY AWAY FROM THE TELEPHONE/POWER LINE POLES! Do not sand them or carve them... your health is in danger...

Benzart just posted about the life threatening exposure he had to the pole chemicals...

"This last one was Almost my last one forever. It was from a 50 ft Stadium Light Pole that was Treated with Arsenic among other chemicals. I found this out after getting Very Ill from carving it, then tracking down the source. Too bad too, it was Beautiful wood. "
