Log cabin build, nice to have heavy equip help but you can manage w/o it if you have a partner and you don't mind the process being a great deal slower..during one of my summers helped a friend w building a small log cabin ....peeling logs, pier block foundation, anchoring logs, chinking..etc etc..

not a fan of notched style joinery especially with logs, i prefer the butt method and using rebar to secure the logs together..you're just asking for trouble if you notch a log on both sides..logs get wet and once you cut into the soft core of a log rot can set in quick and your join may not last 20 years....i'm not a carpenter but i come from a long line of carpenters in my family tree, boat, finish, cabinetmakers..so i have sawdust in my bones and a love for trees...maybe someday, i will build my log cabin..

i've posted from this Carpenter before but building a log cabin using only hand tools(from the beginning) will be exciting to watch...and i want to build a small one someday..high in the mountains near a stream..

experimenting with making my own wood butter..it's so expensive so i've made my first batch and the consistency is like a paste..not exactly what i was going for but it's more protective and should last longer then what i am currently using..used it on a few things and i think i like it..we'll see

When I started to watch the video I found it very familiar for some reason. The first reference to the area was Fogbuster Coffee which is maybe 20 miles from my house. Now in country speak, 20 miles is next door and not considered a day trip by city life.
I do live in the middle of the woods also but I am not off grid. I have a couple wood stoves in the house and run one of them often in the winter for supplemental heat. I will also do some butch cookery on them when inclined. That video is how I grew up and after traveling the country for work, how I retired. Thank you kg for showing some fall in New England and YES it is here right now. |
