On which you'd log who arses about (8)

I believe the answer is:
sawhorse
'on which you'd log' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'who arses about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'who'+'arses'='whoarses'
'whoarses' is an anagram of 'SAWHORSE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sawhorse that I've seen before include "Rack" , "Mobile carpentry station" , "stand for cutting" , "cutting support" , "support for chippy" .)
