Chainsaw Carving a Bear

After many years of wanting to try my hand at chainsaw carving, I finally purchased a chainsaw and found the time to do it. I purchased an Echo chainsaw because I have seen several professional carvers that use Echo and it seemed to be the right fit for me. This was my first ever attempt at carving with a chainsaw but I had previously spent countless hours watching chainsaw carvers in person and on RUclips.
The chainsaw is an Echo CS-4910. I don’t have an Amazon link for that specific chainsaw.
Below are Amazon links to the tools that I used for this project.

Great video! I don't consider myself artistic by any means, but I love running saws. I have always wanted to carve, too. Last year, I was standing in the shop and decided to just go at it after looking at an old log I had sitting around. The first one came out so good I carved 3 more immediately after. I ended up buying some tools for finishing details and had some friends over that week. Everybody liked them so much I gave my mother 2 and sold the rest. It ended up opening doors I never intended. Your work is great and will only get better from here!

Thank you so much, I appreciate the comment and the encouragement. I haven’t started another one yet but I will be soon.

Nice little bear.

Great job. If it doesn't have plans and use a tablesaw, I can't build it. I don't have an artistic bone in my body. Again great work.
