This chainsaw carving primer illustrates the demanding control and precision needed for this unlikely art form. Three projects include instructions for carving a cub in a stump, a caricature bear, and a bear on all fours. Techniques such as cutting straight, creating textures, shaping, sanding, burning for detail, and painting are covered, and special attention is given to how to safely operate a chainsaw, what clothing to wear while working, and how to set up a safe workshop.

Product should ;have measurements not just pictures…Seems the author assumes a lot of the people reading….

this is a great starter book, but it does leave out some instructions so you need to have experience in chainsaw carvings to complete a project

Jamie’s book is solid and thorough. Follow along and make the cuts he suggests and you’ll have a bearish-looking carving your first time out. If your bear isn’t quite bear-enough on the first try, go again and for certain, your second bear will be.
My first bear followed a different set of instructions and looks like a pig. My second bear followed Jamie’s book and sold as soon as the finish was dry.
Having carved a fair number of bears (and other things) since, I understand that measurements are not particularly useful: it all depends on the size of the tree / log you’re starting with.

This book provides a step-by-step process for carving a bear from a tree stump or large log. It also recommends needed tools, cautions and other useful information. It worked the first time on my 20″ diameter, 10 ft high trunk left after our 70 ft balsam toppled in a windstorm at the cabin.
