If you can hold a saw, you can be a chain saw artist. This was the message of William Westenhaver and Ronald Hovde, authors of Fun and Profitable Chain Saw Carving (1978), the first book on the subject—and it’s still true.
To learn chain saw safety and carving techniques, take a class. Schools around the country offer instruction on basic to advanced carving techniques as well as safety, and some even provide a saw! Chain saw carving courses range from 1 to 7 days and cost from a few hundred dollars to about $2,000.
