How We Chink Log Homes

  • We have chinked many log homes over the years using all techniques, machines and products. We made this video to share with you what we have learned and what we prefer. The log home in the video was restored using walnut shell blasting-sanding-staining restoration process with Sashco Capture in Bronze Pine color.
    Visit our website
    www.madronaloghomes.com
    Jen manufacturing brushes can be found on Amazon. We buy the 1" and 2" brushes.
    The air assisted bulk loading gun is an Albion 29oz Teflon coated gun. We now use an electric bulk loading gun that can be found on Albion's website. We now use the Albion electric guns.
    The loading machine is called a bulk loading machine. I really like using these machines vs the follow plates.
    Products I like to use are Sashco Log Jam or Permachink. Both have their benefits, but for all intents and purposes they are the same. Most of the time with our clients it comes down to color selection.
    Please feel free to reach out with any questions or advice needed on your project, we would be happy to help.
    Please contact us if you have any questions.

    Thanks a ton!! The heart of the advice is don’t make it concave or convex, make it flat, and make the line width even. That is the heart of making a good line. As simple as that sounds, it takes a lot of practice. Thanks again!!

    Very helpful. Doesn’t that foam expand far beyond the area you are sealing? Do you need to cut it back after it expands? Also once the foam sets up, do you use the chinking caulk (or whatever the proper name is) on top of the foam?
    Thanks for the video.

    • @tbird267
      @tbird267 4 роки тому

      We use the low expanding window and door foam. Trick is to not let it expand out and to tamp it down while still pliable, no cutting it back needed. Once foam is set up, we use the chinking over the top.

    I’m a caulker in Boston. I’m assuming you could also use a bulk set up on a battery operated bulk caulking gun. Seems like it’d be a little less cumbersome and we also dry tool using Marshalltown slickers. I’m assuming this is a latex product? I suppose they’re different ways of chinking 🤷🏻‍♂️ as I’ve never done it. Great video though. Really interesting and quality craftsmanship 👍🏻

    • @omniscientgrunk
      @omniscientgrunk 16 днів тому

      I have an old log home and it is chinked. My guess is that they intend to fill the cracks with chink after or even use a log crack filler made by the log home products people. I fill my small 1/4 " cracks with a near color matching latex caulk which holds up fairly well. Rain getting into these cracks and even cold air in the winter can actually get into your home if the cracks are in the wrong place.

    • @tbird267
      @tbird267 4 роки тому

      We drag the machine up onto scaffolding. Personally it I find it easier than tying off that big bulky hose off the chinking machine to the scaffolding. Nothing beats the portability of 29oz tubes up on scaffolding though, may be a good option if there isn't a whole lot. With the tubes you can't lay as good of a bead however since there aren't any custom ribbon style tips.

      @@tbird267 I ended up chinking my 20x40 2 level log house awith 29oz tubes and basic guns from Home Depot. It wasn't bad at all. Between the pace I was going and the fact that I could cut the nozzle tip to flow more easily, I never had hand or forearm issues. If this was a business for me, I would look into the bulk loaders and caulk savings, although, my next log house is going to be flat wood instead of round and mortar instead of synthetic. It is also going to be smaller. This house is about 1600 sqft and I could be happy in about half that.

    I was told not to use spray foam in the gaps between logs cause it gives of a gas and makes the chinking bubble. Have you encountered this?

    • @madronaloghomerepaircare6054
      @madronaloghomerepaircare6054  4 роки тому

      We've encountered plenty of blisters or bubbles but they're usually from gas expansion of the water vapor trapped in the chinking when it heats too quickly, as in direct sunlight. That's our going theory at least....I've heard lots of explanations. Permachinks current formula blisters much more easily than sashco.

      Depends on the bead size and how big the logs are (how many lines there are) but buckets run about $250/five gallons, so roughly 2-3k in material on average.

      @rjlkc4668 3 роки тому

      I've always liked round logs better although I agree the hewn log homes tend to look cleaner. I was thinking the hewn logs became a status symbol due to the extra work involved to square a log back before mills and chainsaws. I'd built a small cabin a few years ago and couldn't imagine adding the extra work to the process.
