Holding a BlaNK to Cut with Chainsaw

How do you guys hold a bowl blank to cut it with a chainsaw?

I have a stand that I built to use for cutting logs and can rest the logs on that to nibble the edges off... but sometimes I have been known to put a larger blank on a couple of logs, put my foot on it and nibble around the edges with the chain saw... I know... dangerous, not smart, an accident waiting to happen, but.........it's expedient and works.

Here are a few links to some saw bucks.

Those little mini saw bucks look nice and strong, but unfortunately my back isn't... about fifteen minutes working bent over that little thing, I would be finished for the day.... I built mine similar in design, but at waist height... it's easier for me to heft the logs higher than to bend over to cut them low....

I built a simple saw buck.
