Hey, you do you. If it’s easier and faster for you, go for it. Ignore the haters. You’re allowed to waste logs if they’re yours. Same thing goes for time.
I mean the log cabin is a log cabin if it has logs in it. Most haters wont ever build one themselves, because they never start. Much respect for the butt and pass log cabins, although I like the look of notched logs.
Its logs and your building them into a cabin for godsake. Whos being so technical that they think they know everything and their way is the only way to build a long cabin?
Someone lacking common sense im guessing 🤷♂️🤦🏻♂️🙄😅
My home which is 2,400 ft² is a butt and pass log house. Never heard anyone considerate them less of a log structure only due to the style in which the logs are placed.
With chainsaws i dont get why people dont run jt between the logs filled it with some good construction adhesive n then squeeze them together u wouldnt need to chink them
Whoever says must have never read the accounts from the Lewis and Clark expedition. Specifically the one where they talk about burning down their log shelters when they’d pack up and move to a new spot because they needed to recover their Iron nails they brought with to build the next site

Who cares what people think
I could give a shit less if people "think" it isn’t considered a real log cabin. It’s made of logs, and it will keep you out of the elements.
Good enough for Skip, good enough for me.
Is there some type of adhesive placed between the logs? Something to seal them?
Me: if its made of logs then it is logs
I just played sons of the forest and I’m craving a lifestyle like this bro 😂
Not to mention you do not have to wait or the logs to season a year. Cut, debark and install!
All I see in Knoxville is a bunch of men butt does that count.
Are you building a cabin-like structure from logs it’s a log cabin
Where do i find those nails?
Interesting and informative
We always spiked both types of cabins just makes a longer lasting cabin and saves chinking in the long run
Metta build
The people who criticize it never built a log cabin
Why do you talk like you are dexter
How do you get the logs though, let alone same diameter?
Goooo team!! ❤
Doing good bother keep it up

What kind of logs are you using
Very interesting and looks great
Notching takes longer. Cutting, hacking, measuring and measuring some more. 😅
Will it also help to prevent cracks from forming as the home _settles_ over the years?
Where can I get logs for things like this

Ask the old mountain men if they’d give a shit whether or not it’s notched
Sounds like MGK talking
