This picture was taken during DOOM development in 1993. This is the DOOM chainsaw sitting in a bucket, ready to be scanned by Kevin to create the image of the chainsaw in DOOM. The reason it’s in a bucket is because it leaked oil! That’s also why there’s newspapers all around it. :) Heh heh, yes, the name of the chainsaw was Eager Beaver. The little Post-It Note next to the chainsaw says “Borrowed from Ann Graver Holz”. Ann was Tom Hall’s girlfriend at the time and since she had a chainsaw (Most of us apartment-dwellers did not own a chainsaw!), she let Tom borrow it. Tom, um, forgot to give it back to her…..so……..it’s still around. Tom is going to do something with it, probably sometime this year!
