Just picked up three 10" diameter pine logs, 2 @ 7' long, one 6'. I'm having a triangle concrete pad laid next weekend, and the two 7' will be the front supports for a thatch A Frame structure, with the 6' the back support.

I plan to carve the back one on the side facing the front of the structure. For the front two.. I want to carve the fron of them, but I'm thinking from inside, I'll be looking at the back side of the logs. Should I.... carve tikis front and back.... carve the front and leave the back alone... carve the front and put router style tapa patterns in the back???

Anyone gone through this process already? Suggestions much appreciated!
