Finishing Up The Weekend Building Project

Published by laura at 4:16 pm under Building A Log Home

Since we didn’t quite finish the top rows on Saturday, some of our friends came back on Sunday to lend their hands to our log home building project again.

It was a short day, placing the final courses on the interior log wall, but again, heavier than I could manage.

The few photos below are of Charles (Chuck), Brian, Eric and Jake finishing up.

Jake holds the ladder while Eric and Brian lift a 300 pound log on the top course of our interior log wall.

We only left a small space for the door way as we build. Eric will later arch this doorway with a chainsaw and I’ll sand the edges, but for now, it fits our small but mighty friend Chuck perfectly!

The door frame is small - to be adjusted later - but for now Chuck fits perfectly in our little doorway.

Inside and out, we finally reach full height. You can see the exterior and interior walls in this photo are all over 8′ high.

Here’s a quick video of our progress…
