The thumbnails will take you to different stages of
the process.
The Log Building process starts with forming the
walls on the finished floor.

Stacking the walls
 |
Building the second floor
 |
Setting the purlins
 |
Setting the ridge pole
 |
|
Once the first floor walls are stacked, In goes the Loft
System and T&G |
Once the loft floor is installed, the building continues
with the purlins and Full Log Gables |
With the Gables & Purlins set, the final Ridge Pole is
set. |

2x6 T&G is installed over the purlins, and the roof is
insulated to meet code standards. |
Shingling the roof
 |
Staining the logs
 |
Chinking & Finishing Touches
 |
|
The roof is now ready to finish with the shingles, or
the material of your choice.
|
Stain is applied to the log package to prevent log
degradation, and to make your log home beautiful. |
Finally to give your home that final protection from
the elements. We recommend a quality chinking job.
