I recently got a vested interest in chainsaws, mainly the scary-looking vintage ones from the 50's-70's; These tools have become fearsome weapons in many games, especially RPG's like Fallout 4. However, here on Nexus, there's only 2 chainsaw mods available; While these mods are sufficient for the needs of most, I for one, would like some more variety. Therefore, I wish to see a fully custom animated, modifiable chainsaw that can carve raiders and the mutant beasts of the Commonwealth to shreds! What I want to be modifiable on this weapon is the main base, that would be a start, as well as the chain blades and the bar they rest on (Maybe a bow-bar customization option?); As for custom animations, that's all up to you, just as long as they aren't the vanilla Mr. Handy Buzzsaw animations. I'll provide some images of some of my favorite chainsaws, so you guys can use them as a reference; With that all being said, I look forward to see what Ya'll can do, if you wish, happy modding!

There are already a few chainsaw mods mainly the Murdering Chainsaw which is similar to the chainsaw from Fallout 76

Yes, I actually forgot to bring that up; I am aware that there are other chainsaw mods, namely the one you mentioned, and the remade Fallout NV one in TheGrilledTurkey's Classic Melee Pack (Which, funnily enough, I'm using both now). However, the murdering chainsaw mod is a bit old, and uses the vanilla Mr. Handy Buzzblade animations (It also uses the buzzblade sounds, which sound nothing like a chainsaw); As for the GrilledTurkey version, it's decent, but (No offense to Turkey and Grill) that handlebar that they put on it to support the vanilla animation is just... wrong. 

 

So, I figured I'd suggest that someone add in some variety; Plus, there's never been one with true custom animations. and most certainly none done in the style as you've seen above. 

 

My other reason for bringing this up is that I've got into Doom 2016, and while the kill animations can't be replicated in the fallout games, It'd be fun to *Rip and Tear* through a bunch of raiders!
