Welcome to TC Kevin. I'm a noobie too, except I've been here for about a year.

Yeah, what ALoha Station said: just carve. But search this website for more about wood and drying. There's a lot of discussion here about that very topic (I just can't put my finger on it right now, but it's buried here somewhere).

Good luck - get some padded gloves without fingers to absorb the shock of the mallet, and get some good bandaids. Sounds like a nice score on the palm logs!

Now get to work and let's see some pictures!
