Admitedly I'm looking ahead, but I,m having a 7' log delivered today that I plan to carve and erect in my yard. Is there a technique that would save me from planting most of the log into the ground? I would hate to loose the bottom 2-3', but want to know what to expect before I go at it with the chisel. I did a search, but came up empty.
