masterz Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I just saw this on toolmonger: http://toolmonger.com/2011/01/17/badass-bandsawing/ A guy carves out a deer from a block of wood, in less than two minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flairwoodworks Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 The Carter bandsaw guys do this at the woodworking shows. I've seen the demo in person half a dozen times and it's still fun to watch. What's really impressive is how in tune he is with the saw. Once, he started cutting the deer, then seemingly for no reason backed out of the cut and turned of the saw. "If I'm right," he said casually, "the blade is about to break." He removed the blade and felt around it, then folded it at one point and the blade snapped. He installed a new blade and kept going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
