CHAINSAW wood carving large dog

In todays video we will be chainsaw wood carving a large dog, a Rottweiler to be exact! This specific Rottweiler is named BB and she is the cutest little thing! I have chainsaw carved several dogs at this point and I have learned so much from each dog carving! Dogs are NOT easy to carve, and customers tend to have higher expectations since you are often attempting to replicate both a specific breed and a specific pet. Always love a good challenge though, and BB was definitely a challenge!

I had. Looked for this video before. Very cool to see your beginning and some of your thought process. Seems like we all go through a process. Love your work⭐

[@donburshaw6505]

I'm a carpenter! And couldn't do that with all the tools in the world! Your an artist! And an amazing one at that! Love and support from Canada

[@TayMarie23]

Aww I appreciate that! ☺️💛

[@fichtemopedschnibbler]

I give a 10 out of 10 for this great carving and an extra Point for carving it with an electric chainsaw with a regular bar thats something special!

[@TayMarie23]

That little corded chainsaw is a beast…but my most recent carving (a larger then life buck) has taught me I really need to invest in a gas saw for the larger projects. Carving a massive deer with that electric saw was something 😂 A carving bar is also a high priority on my list, I think it will be a huge help! I appreciate the kind words and for you watching my video!!

[@alangrochulski5103]

Thank you for sharing your skills and wisdom. I am new to this and plan to do a sculpture of my Cavoodle. Your video helped me with practical advice and techniques that I did not know. Some of these things are not covered in the other peoples videos. Keep up the good work.

[@TayMarie23]

Thank you for the kind words! This Rottie carving was a huge step forward for me! Dogs are a very difficult carve, be patient with yourself and have tons of reference photos to look at, they will help! If you run into a tough spot feel free to reach out or email me pics and I can try my best to help you out :)

How much do you charge and do you do any dogs and do you ship

[@dandydude9646]

When you get your gas saw you should get a Stihl. You can thank me later.

[@TayMarie23]

I just got a Sthil ms170, love it so far! Next on my list is an Echo 501p! Let the collection begin!

[@dandydude9646]

@@TayMarie23 nice! I wouldn't really recommend getting an ms194c, or Ms 151c. Not only are the extremely lightweight, but they also have adjustable carburetors which is better for smaller blocking. Not having a large load put stress on the non adjustment carburetor.

[@jonesyacdc]

You chainsaw people should fallow chickanic, KZbin she will save you money 💰.👍❤️

[@johnprice1914]

Another very impressive carving Tay...I noticed you mentioned that you wished you had a carving bar..Can I ask what you did about that?.. I have an electric Oregon with a 16 inch bar too and wanted to change to a carving bar!.. Any advise Tay?....Well done on your career as a carver..you are very talented indeed!

[@TayMarie23]

This is an older video! I have 3 carving bars now! Do you have the cs1500 or 1400? I found that my cs1500 was burning my bars up a bit despite good oiling. I have successfully run an quarter tip on the cs1500 though. Just need to switch your sprocket over to 1/4p using the Mikita electric sprocket and get yourself a C1 mount carving bar. you can actually run 3/8p on quarter tips so you don’t have to change the sprocket if you don’t want too. I have been running my 8” dime tip on my Stihl mse180c and it’s running great, no burning up at all! There is no throttle control on electric saws so there is a lot more chain rotations which means more friction then a gas so, so you just have to be careful! But once you find the right set up electric is amazing for detail work, zero vibration makes for better accuracy! Hope this helps!

[@johnprice1914]

That's very kind to reply in such detail Tay...I have a cs1800 chainsaw and can't find enough info into a conversion or infact whether it's possible to do so, until now,. I will try doing what you suggest by changing from a 3/8 pitch to 1/4 in then change my bar...Tay, thankyou so much for your help..You are an incredible carver and an inspiration to your art...Thankyou once again!

[@loripatterson3657]

I just found your channel a couple days ago, and you’re pretty awesome. Hands down you’re better than a couple other guys I’ve been watching, that have done this for years. So, keep goin’ n gettin’ better girl! But I was wondering, about the lilting/sing song ‘high pitched’ bits you do. Is this natural to you, let’s say when you’re happy n excited? Or is it something you put on for ‘performance’, for your KZbin audience. I only ask because sometimes it’s overdone. I don’t say this to cause drama or hurt your feelings or anything,because by watching nearly a dozen of your vids I think you’re amazing and a genuinely nice person, that anyone would like to be around. I was only thinking of some ‘constructive criticism’. And, loved your Rott puppy. I’m 62 and have had three Rotts. Amazing companions. All three have passed of old age at 12 and my last was almost 14. Her name was Mouse. She was the best of them. I plan to put her image in wood . You gave me many helpful tips. Thank you for doing this video. Be safe.

[@TayMarie23]

Haha definitely no performing here 😂 I often forget the camera is running, hence why I’m standing in front of it half the time, and when I have to talk to the camera im just my awkward self! I love what I do and this is all so new to me so I’m just chipper about almost everything 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@mariogal01l]

Thanks for sharing yout technical skills. Your carvings are realy cool and i like them a lot. greetings from Switzerland. Mario

[@TayMarie23]

Thank you Mario! ☺️

[@cheznorrington9721]

I love this, your carvings are exceptional and true to life. I love when you do real Time. Have you checked out Ryan Cook carvings? He has so great tutorial videos on tool using and what tool to use for what. I think he would help you grow both in carving and selling ideas. But as everyone one says you have true skill set needed for chainsaw carving and you have it by far😊 .

[@TayMarie23]

Thank you for your kindness! Of course I have seen Ryan’s videos, he is so talented, I’ll meet him one day I’m sure of it 😊 I actually watched him and Chainsawjennas videos before I started carving!

[@shelbyrebeccalansingdennis4412]

This is absolutely beautiful. I'm going to need a tutorial video on the ears I am currently working on a small Rottweiler carving for my dad's birthday and can not for the life of me get the ears 😔 so any help would be amazing

[@TayMarie23]

Oh you are NOT alone friend! I charge a little more for the floppy ears because they are a mind game! Just remember, a floppy ear is a stand up ear just folded over, having that in my mind usually helps me visualize the base of the ear. I have a small lab carving video, watch the ear part on that one just for another visual. They are tough!

[@debraparry3888]

Superb job, I've just been asked to do a fox terrier dog,and I have no clue as where to start 😭. Great work, love your carving ❤

[@TayMarie23]

Fox terrier with or without the beard haha? Have you carved a dog before? Will he be sitting or standing? Happy to answer any and all question you might have!

[@williamknight7699]

I think this video is pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolll

[@DAS-Videos]

I should have gotten the HF finger sander back when I though I might want one, before inflation and tariffs. Now they are $49.99. There is a $36 Wen finger sander but it is only 2 amps. The HF one is 5.3 amps. I also miss the coupons HF used to have. It used to be 20% or 25% off most everything.

[@TayMarie23]

Thy are $50 now?!? Wow! I have heard okay things about the wen one, I think it might be worth a try! I can't believe the makita one is close to $200!

[@DAS-Videos]

@@TayMarie23 So I looked at the Harbor Freight website late this afternoon and they have the finger sander on sale for $27.99, today(Saturday) only. So I drove to HF and I got there 10 minutes after closing time :-( So I went home and ordered one online but it cost me $6.99 more for shipping. So the total with shipping and tax was $37.29. I'm still a little bummed out about getting to the store too late and having to pay 6.99 more. I guess it is still a good price.

[@DAS-Videos]

I see that the sale price goes through to today, not ends on today. So I went back to the store and got one without the shipping charge, and will cancel or bring back the one I ordered online. So I saved the $7.45 shipping charge+tax after all. Every dollar counts🙂

[@keegantimber8571]

I’m a fairly new subscriber, with lots of Timber, and just started researching chainsaw carving. I enjoy your videos. Consider doing a greatly slowed down, instructional video for us newbies, explaining and showing your cuts, angles and any other suggestions for newbies you can provide! Just an idea. Thumbs up and subscribe everyone! 👍👍👍👍

[@TayMarie23]

As a total newbie myself I have been going back and forth about doing an educational carving video or not! I would just hate to suggest something that is not correct or not safe…but at the same time I know all the things newbies struggle with since I’m so new myself! So I might make a tips and suggestions video with some of the little things I have learned over the past 5 months! But as far as tools, saws, carving bars, and chains…I myself am so lost! I have been watching so many videos to try and get comfortable and familiar with all the options lol! Doing a little tutorial video might be fun though ☺️ Thank you so much for watching and for the support!

[@keegantimber8571]

@@TayMarie23 Well thank you so much. You have amazing talent. I think a tutorial would go over great with your viewers. Anyone with a chainsaw should understand safety. A short disclaimer might be an idea. Right or wrong your talents may inspire many people and we would all learn. I am presently saving some bucked up logs, some huge, to practice on. Thumbs up and subscribe everyone!

You are an absolutely amazing artist! You have a true gift! I could only dream of being able to just look at something, have a mental image of a real life being, and turn a log into such a beautiful animal! I love watching your videos and watching the pieces come to life! I learned my artistic talent is with metal. I have some on my channel, and should have more posted soon. Life and weather have been big factors in me not getting pieces finished since I'm not able to work in an enclosed shop, but they'll get done! I have to add, you are absolutely beautiful as well! 🤭☺

[@TayMarie23]

Thank you so much for the kind words! Watching the pieces come to life is my favorite part as well, I know I'm the one creating them but they always take on their own little personalities and quirks! I wouldn't even know where to start when it comes to working with metal, that's a very cool hobby! I also feel your pain when it comes to being at the mercy of weather! I too hope to one day have an enclosed shop...one with a little heat would be a dream lol! Thank you for watching friend, I'll keep eyes out for when you post a new video :)

I don’t purposely, the eye cutters just make a lot of friction with the wood when they shape the eyes! 👀
