Figures, reliefs and textures carved with a chainsaw are more common in everyday life. Whether at the entrances of smaller communities or in the front gardens of eager woodworkers. In this book, Balázs Turán shows you a new technique. This consists of the combination of two carved objects to form a bench which, in addition to a beautiful look, also offers appropriate comfort.

After an introduction to the necessary tools and the creation of the posts, the main focus of a good bench is adjusting the seat and backrest. Turán not only shows which material is suitable, he also guides you through essential points such as the choice of the angle of the backrest and the height and width of the seat.

To conclude, the constructive aspects of building a bank with a chainsaw will be examined once again on the basis of various other bank projects. Methods for surface treatment and decoration are also shown.

Numerous images also serve as inspiration for your own projects.

Balázs Turán is a trained carpenter, but now works in IT. For many years he has been fascinated by chainsaw carving as a creative and demanding leisure activity.
