i made a pretty good one years ago ..
i went someplece - shit it was so long ago i cant remember where - a shoe place maybe - but you could go to a fabric place - and buy some light coloured leather scraps. i stitched them together leaving eye holes - and i made a sort of nose by padding a part of the leather with stuffing, then stitching it with thread (and colouring the nostrils with dark colouring.
it looked pretty decent - still have it to this day - i should take a pic and post it.
i didnt bother with a yellow apron ... ii got a white one from the work cafeteria - put red paint on my hands and made bloody handprints all over it.
I also coloured a wig black, and made it a bit crazy - wore this with a black suit and a loud gaudy tie. (i was going for the chainsaw 2 look)
won every contest i ever went into for most scary.
also - i used a real chainsaw - drained of oil and gas - plus i took the spark plug out.
oh yeah - and black leather gloves
(plus i have this black glove thing that makes it look like you are holding a severed hand.
