  1. When I needed an electric I chose the Makita UC3530 over the 5012B for a number of reasons. I am running a dime tip canon carving bar with 1/4 pitch carving chain. I was planning to put a Stihl Picco bar and chain on it but the oiler holes did not line up. The Canon has a universal mount. Suurcing the drum and 1/4 pitch rim was not too difficult but was a bit tricking assembling. I ended up putting an oversized rim on it to increase chain speed. I expected a lot of lost torque but have been very happy with the saw for light cutting and detailing. If you would like more info or pictures email me [email protected]
  2. These postings motivated me to develop a new pattern. Chainsawcarve.ca
  3. Good beginner carving pattern! Chainsawcarve.ca http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg231/jkubara/perchedeaglethumb.jpg
  4. I did a demo at the local Stihl dealer and this "quick carve" was very popular. Get the full size pattern at chainsawcarve.ca
  5. I designed a font for chainsaw based on a 3x3 grid. PDF available at chainsawcarve.ca
  6. I am impressed! I actually think the turning work being posted is awesome! When the long thread reappears I am compelled to see if there is anything interesting, only to find that members are just "chatting" and I am "disappointed". I would like to see them post new work as a new thread that maybe more people would take a look at. Thanks Andy to you and others that make this work.
  7. I wish the chainsaw carvers on this forum were as responsive as the woodturners. I apologize. I did not read the fine print and wrongly thought this was a chainsaw only forum. Forum Title Reads:Chainsaw Carving Forum Discussion forum for chainsaw carving and other woodwork, discuss techniques and share pictures of your latest work here. I had a lathe. I gave it away.
  8. Why does it do that? Site should read chainsawcarve.ca
  9. If there is a moderator on this forum, please end the "woodturning" thread. It is not only misplaced, it probably discourages chainsaw carvers from participating. This may be my last post here.

  11. Thanks Graham, When I was doing my first chainsaw carving (standing eagle) I stood back and thought that it looked like a pigeon. I began to undestand the importance of understanding the anatomy of animals. I realized the importance of proportions when first blocking out, The rest seems to come from the saw!
  12. Weird the way the web site name showed up. Should have read chainsawcarve.ca
