Ready, Steady, Chainsaw - International Carver Speed Contest

International Chainsaw Carver Speed Contest from the APF Exhibition in September 2024.
Now, for those of you who get a kick out of watching people conjure up artwork right in front of your eyes, this one's going to hit the spot. It’s the Chainsaw Carving Speed Contest. And let me tell you, these chaps are seriously good-brilliant, even. They go head-to-head, racing against the clock, with just half an hour to transform a lump of wood into a stunning sculpture.
Armed with up to three different chainsaws, each fitted with specially designed carving bars, they craft their masterpieces. And when the dust settles, the works are auctioned off to the public.
