I am a self-taught chainsaw carver with over a decade of experience, creating unique sculptures from locally sourced and recycled wood. Based in North Norfolk, I carve along roadsides across the East of England.
Over the years, my work has found homes around the world, and I’ve had the pleasure of bringing both my own imaginative designs and my customers’ ideas to life. I’ve even demonstrated speed carving on BBC1’s Good Morning Dagenham!
If you have an idea for a custom carving, I’d love to hear from you — feel free to get in touch.

Corporate Commission – Laser Tag
Corporate Commission for a Suffolk Laser Tag Company
Crafted from striking Macrocarpa Cedar, this custom piece was designed to capture the bold energy of the Laser Tag experience. The rich tones and unique grain of the wood add depth and character, making it a standout feature for the business.
10 foot Cedar Wood Giraffe Commission
One of my most memorable commissions was a stunning 10-foot giraffe, carved from beautiful cedar wood. This intricate piece took two days to complete, with the rich grain and warm tones of the cedar bringing the giraffe’s graceful form to life. Every detail, from its elegant neck to its distinctive markings, was carefully shaped to capture the charm and character of this magnificent animal. It was a rewarding challenge and a true showcase of what can be achieved with a chainsaw and a creative vision.

Chainsaw Carved Lion – Near Sandringham – Made from Cedar
Chainsaw carved lion near Sandringham made from cedar.
We ordered an owl for our daughter’s birthday. Arnie emailed photos as the owl emerged. She loves her gift. We would recommend Arnie without a doubt.
Great guy! Pleasure doing business with him.
When my mother’s trees died she was in a right flap as to what to do with it, but Mr Barton suggested carving owls into them – what a wise idea! All the time he was working he had a smile on his face, looking like he was having a right hoot. On time and nice and punctual and in one fell swoop he was done. She was so surprised with how good it was – you could have knocked her down with a feather!
Received a wood carving of my beloved pug as a surprise Birthday present, was over the moon and can’t believe how much it looks like him! The attention to detail was great and really showed the quirky character of Pugsey.
Would definitely recommend Arnie’s work to others
