Thinking of building the classic, round-log home? If so, this class is the perfect place to begin! This workshop explores the warm, highly efficient approach to log building that uses logs in their natural round shape with tightly scribed joints. Learn about the log building process from site preparation, to shaping logs, to discussions on home design, including site visits to existing log buildings. This course provides an in-depth, hands-on experience teaching the techniques needed to build a log structure. Working as a group, participants will work on an 8’x8’ structure (a future sauna?) using green logs to learn notching techniques used for floor joists and rafters. Students will also discover how log buildings can be taken apart and reassembled at any location using the skills taught in this class.
