Working With Big Logs - Tiki Carving

I live in an older neighborhood well populated with mature trees. This morning I stopped by a neighbor's who was having a old oak taken out of their front yard. I kept telling myself, "It's OAK! It's hard-carving and HEAVY! You don't want it!" But O-M-G look at the SIZE of that log! "It'll flatten your tires as soon as they put it in the truck bed!" I said to myself. But still I dreamed of what I might be able to do with it. Well, away it goes to the dump. I know when I'm beat. If there was a way, I'd have it in my garage right now. Oh well.
