Carve Carrbridge – Scottish Open Chainsaw Carving Competition 2018
September 1, 2018
The annual Scottish Open Chainsaw Carving Championships – also known as Carve Carr-Bridge – will be held on the Saturday at Carrbridge in the Cairngorms National Park.
The main competition will be held over 4 hours, including a break after 2 hours. In addition a ‘quick carve’ event will be held immediately after the main event, with carvers being asked to prepare a small carving which can then be auctioned for the benefit of the local community.
The competitors are only allowed to use chainsaws to remove wood and to finish the carving. Specialist carving bars are allowed. No other power tools or hand tools are permitted.
Following the judging and the prize giving the finished works of art will be sold at auction starting with the first placed and then in descending order.
