A friend of mine is building a log home in the Parkland Region of Manitoba.

This is a quick vid of what is left before snow fall.

  • I cannot tell, what did you use for the foundation?

  • The foundation is concrete with a small area to access under the house.

  • very interesting...never realized how much time and effort went in to fitting each and every log...good job

  • With everything needing to be so precise, it takes a lot of time to craft each log. Precision is very important or you would not get the tight fit. :)

  • Awesome stuff, how many square feet?

  • Not sure how many feet...just know how many logs to get up to the top. :P

    Thnx!

see all

  • As European market leader in the field of cedar homes and other applications, we know better than anyone else what is needed to realize a dream. We build Cedar wooden homes in whole Europe.

  • I used all 100% cordless tools to build my cabin, when i say cordless I mean hand saw, chisel, axe and draw knife. I also have to hike in 2 miles to access my cabin site and I had to Carry, drag and peel each and every single log in by hand. One day I will build a real log home like your friend, But I'll use power tools and have the logs delivered to me on site like you... also, driving to the site would be neat.

  • What a great job !!

    Keep us updated on the build buddy :D

  • Hi Meph. great observation..and correct..but...most IS done with a chainsaw...that which you saw is just the touching up..so the log fits snug.

    I will get some chainsaw cuts for yah..

    Thanks Bud!!

  • I am wondering why you are not using a chainsaw for some of that work I think that it would say allot of time

  • wow.
