The farmer's logs<br />

The farmer's logs are pretty easy to make, I made these farmer's logs<br />

for the exercise “the farmer's walk”.<br />

MATERIALS<br />

1. Obtain two similar logs with the same weight. It’s best if you get<br />

your cuts out of one long trunk then you will have two logs of the<br />

same length and proportions.<br />

2. Remove the bark so that the logs are smooth this will stop the<br />

friction burns and rubbing against your legs during the farmers<br />

walk.<br />
