CD,
Be advised the Queen palm is a difficult palm to work with. The inner portion is very wet and will rot the log from the inside out unless you can extract it first. I've done it and will never try that again. The outer two to three inches are hard and really nice to carve but the effort to clean the inside may ditract you from using it. Good luck
