Upgrading a jawhorse for beginner chainsaw carvers . Also no jawhorse no problem.

I suggest recessing those bolt heads by first drilling with a spade bit into the wood about half an inch.

Enjoy your tutorials Kyle. I've always enjoyed working with chainsaws, you sent me off in a new direction with carving. I am 70.

Great advice that’s how I do it screw up from the bottom

[@dennisrussell2973]

Good info, soon to carve my first after school is out.

Thanks Kyle. I also use counter sink bolts to mount boards to jawhorse then it allows the work to fit all the way down into the horse. And also have used carriage bolts an sink into the wood to attach wood to horse. Very nice video.

Good stuff Kyle . I made some out of a hard wood pallet a few years ago and it's saved a lot of sharpening.

I've been thinking about getting a 6x6 beam and cutting it down to about 5 ot 6 feet so that I can center it in the Jawhorse and do lots of bears at once. All like cuts at the same time. Maybe leave a hair of play in the tightness so I can spin the bears 90 degrees at a time and go through and knock all like cuts all the way around the bears. Have you tried doing something like that?
Cheers,

I use timber lock screws in a 2x6 and I will carve 4-5 small bears at once . No play though the screws tend to bend in my experience
