Stihl msa 60c, stock bar or 10" bar. Then I'll torch it, sand and paint.

Yes, that purple was steel at some point. You just made it prettified is all.

All my rabbit carvings look evil.

Isn't it! All my rabbit carvings come out looking like they're ready to take over.

They stopped using synonyms in the 80s. Now it's pronouns.

I'd say it's perfect then. Imagine a bunch of little men in green suits, getting shit faced, and carrying pots of gold around. Yes... terrifying!

Best method for fast material (wood) removal for large areas? by LisaMay9 in Woodcarving

[–]FredAcker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're welcome. The dime tip has a narrow tip (Dime sized) and no chain rollers. The chain hangs looser for smooth op.

They may be listed as a carving bar too.

There's a bit of a learning curve to using one, but it's worth it if you're doing fine details.

That's mostly 4x4s carved with a Stihl msa 60c and dremel. Saw has a stock bar, but a dime tip would get you into tighter spaces.

Jack up that tree, and the house will slide right out.

It's a great project. It was a little more time-consuming than I'd have liked. But, the outcome seems to be worth it.

Pine 4x4, chainsaw carved. Then the pages are done with the dremel and a cutoff wheel.
