[Woodcarver] pulley's help

[Steve Klein]

Hi Maricha,
    I have been working on a tree also.  Along with about 10 other 
carvers for Discovery World in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
What we have is a support, like your horses with wheels on the top 
spaced so the log is on the wheels, not the horses.  One horse at each 
end.  The log is resting on 4 wheels.  In the end of the log are 4 
holes.  Placed like a cross.  We put a pin in 2 of them and use a 2X4 as 
a lever to rotate the log.
