June 24, 201510 yr In New Mexico, these hollowed out logs were used as feed troughs. The Spanish word is "canoa" as in English "canoe." My helper, Taylor, turned this one into a planter by making the two stands. I had already made the fat baskets for another job, and they were not used, so recycled to this job. The rest was forged and mig welded. He welded a plate underneath and lag screwed the assembly to the log bottom. Ready for soil and planting. Height including the log is 24".
