What parts do I need to put an echo cs-60s chainsaw motor on an 18 speed mountain bike?
First of all, it has a centrifugal clutch. How can I make a bike chain work with it? Second of all, once I mount it, and set up the throttle, is there a way to make the bike go into something like neutral? aka engine running, but not moving the wheel?
Here is another Darwin Award winner in the making!

For most art, there is a delicate approach. A smooth brush stroke that accents a shadow. The careful framing of a black and white picture. But the chainsaw takes a different approach. There are few art forms that combine the raw industrial power of machinery with the eloquence of sculpting. The chain saw does this flawlessly.
Chain saw art started as a gimmick to sell chain saws in the 1960's but has since grown into a popular form of expression throughout The United States, Finland, Canada, and other parts of the world. It is a growing art form that combines the use of modern technology with ancient wood carving techniques.
There are many different takes on the chain saw art form. Some artists concentrate on the quick carve. This method is a spectacle for audiences and demonstrates the speed, light weight, and dexterity of the chain saw. Other artists have a more refined approach and could take days, weeks, or months to complete their sculptures. These artists may also incorporate hand tools in order to fine tune their sculptures.
Whatever method the artist chooses there is a danger associated with chain saw art. Chainsaws have the tendency to kick back on both inexperienced, and experienced carvers. Chain saw art chain saws have specific designs to increase safety. Artist will also go through years of safety training before they are considered capable of large sculptures.
Chain saw carving has seen many changes since its humble beginnings. In 1992 the Masters of the Chainsaw group was formed. The company is dedicated to maintaining the integrity of the sport and represents some of the finest chain saw artists in the United States.
Chain saw art is a unique form of expression that continues to grow across the globe. It is an art form the respects the past but acknowledges the future. It is a modern twist, on the old age practice of wood carving.
