Depends on the sive of the log - if it's a small palm log you can get one of those work benches from sears and prop it up on it (I think Gecko and TikItOny use that). I flip one of those 12 dollar saw horses from Home Depot over, flank it with two more and put the palm log on that. Most of the time, I just leave it on the ground and put a saw horse on the opposite side of the carving to keep it from rolling. Good luck and post some pics when you're done!
