Building a Log Cabin - Round Log Building

Course details

Who has not dreamed of living in a hand-built log cabin of ones own? Make your dream house come true! Our instructor will pass on his knowledge, showing you practically oriented and with professional expertise the basics of building with round logs. Theory comes before practice, with everything you need to know about log cabin building. You will learn about the tools you need, tips on selecting the wood, on debarking, and on dividing the logs. You will learn to handle the LogScriber, to scribe and produce fillets and corner joints, and to saw out the window openings. After building several layers, including bearers and ceiling beams, the roof construction will top off the cabin. Everyone will actively participate in building and in the end will possess the necessary skills for building a small cabin, such as a sauna or a garden house, on their own. Please bring suited protective clothing (hearing protector, chain saw trousers, gloves and googles).
