In Saw Dogs season 1 episode 3, titled "Race To The Finish," the team of chainsaw artists is faced with a unique challenge. The town of Kimberley, British Columbia has asked them to carve an intricate wooden bicycle for a local charity race. The catch? They only have three days to complete the project.
The episode begins with the team, including lead artist Steve Blanchard and his assistants, arriving in Kimberley and inspecting the massive, six-foot tall log that will be transformed into a one-of-a-kind bicycle. Steve immediately starts sketching out his design while his team starts to prepare the log for carving.
As they begin to work, they quickly realize that the tight timeline and the complexity of the design are going to be major obstacles. However, Steve and his team are used to working under pressure and quickly get to work.
The first step is to carefully measure and cut the log, creating the shape of the bicycle. Next, they start to use a variety of chainsaws and other tools to carve out the intricate details of the design, which includes everything from gears and pedals to the spokes of the wheels.
As they work, tensions start to rise within the team. Steve is known for his perfectionism and his insistence on doing things his way, which can sometimes clash with his assistants' ideas. One of the team members, Allan, is especially frustrated by Steve's approach and starts to question whether they can finish the project on time.
Despite the tension, the team continues to work tirelessly, using their years of experience to make quick progress. They also receive a surprise visit from a local cyclist, who offers his feedback and suggestions on the design.
With just hours left until the race, the team is still working frantically to put the finishing touches on the bicycle. But as they work, disaster strikes: one of the gears breaks off, threatening to ruin the whole project.
In a frantic race against time, Steve and his team work to repair the broken gear and get the bicycle ready for the race. Finally, after three days of intense work, the finished product is unveiled to the town of Kimberley.
The episode culminates in the charity race itself, as the wooden bicycle is put to the test against a field of other competitors. The tension is high as the team watches their creation take on the challenge, but ultimately, it is a success, with the bicycle crossing the finish line in impressive time.
Overall, "Race To The Finish" is an exciting and inspiring episode that showcases the incredible skill and dedication of the Saw Dogs team. Between the tight timeline, the intricate design, and the unexpected obstacles, this is a project that truly put their abilities to the test. But in the end, they delivered a stunning piece of art that helped to raise money for a great cause.
