Bear Chainsaw Carving, Bear Wood Carving, Bear in a Log, by Josh Carte, Bear Art, Black Bear, Handmade Woodworking, Made in Ohio
17” tall, 6” wide, 8” deep
Aspen..
This is a chainsaw carving. Almost all of the work, while creating this carving, was done by my hands and a chainsaw. I used a small knife for the nose and eyes. I used a torch and black paint for color. I sealed this carving with several coats of polyurethane.
Chainsaws and torches.. My kinda day :)
This carving is made of dry wood. I used a special drying process, a dehumidifier kiln that I built, that removes most of the moisture from the wood. The moisture content is less than 10%. This process helps to ensure that the wood won’t develop large cracks. The drying process also greatly reduces the weight of the carving.
Everything in my shop is made by hand, by me, Josh.
This carving will look great on a table, at an entryway, in the kitchen, or any other place that needs a little bear :)

Frequently Asked Questions
Custom and personalized orders
Yes, I sometimes take custom orders :) Contact me and we can discuss the specifics.
I really enjoy creating themed walking sticks such as Odin, Thor, Baron Samedi or many, many other possibilities. If you'd like a stick with bears, owls, or whatever else you might have in mind, just shoot me a message and we can discuss it.
I am also happy to make custom chainsaw carvings of about any animal or object you'd like.
I know that, as a customer, you expect a certain level of control over the custom process and I, as an artist, expect a certain level of freedom. When we are able to meet in the middle, beautiful things can happen :)
Don't be afraid to message me :) Thanks so much!
Care instructions
My carvings can be cleaned using many different methods. A feather duster works nicely. Compressed air (duster or air compressor) also works well. If on a porch or indoors, my carvings will never need a new coat of sealer. Chainsaw carvings that are outdoors will need a fresh coat of sealer each year.
