My First Tiki - Tiki Carving

It has power but is heavy thus will wear on your back after bending over after awhile. The bar is what the chain glides on. A dime bar has a narrow or small tip for getting better detail for carving. Bars are interchangeable. I see a few different Makitas on Ebay. Stihl is also a reliable brand. I use the chainsaw, grinder and chisel depending on what I need to get done. Rough grit sand paper designed for the grinder works real fast on smoothing. [ Edited by: Tiki Republic 2014-05-07 15:51 ]
