It's really coming together quickly now. I notice that that narrow barred chain saw comes in handy when setting the logs!
I hereby Declare the Bearded Carpenter, the most talented, and ingenious, cabin builder on earth. Thanks for sharing ❤
Howdy Scott- I sure appreciate the vote of confidence but there are people who are much better than I am. I was very fortunate to have worked with who I consider to be among the top log builders in the country. Thank you so much for your kindness. God bless you
Absolutely incredible!.......you are truly a Master Craftsman. I've seen many old cabins here in Southwest Missouri with the dovetail method but never thought of the building techniques involved. Looks FANTASTIC!
Howdy John- thank you so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it. I probably go to a little bit more work, but the old timers were working hard to get a shelter for their families and didn’t have the time to get everything perfect, but what they were able to do with limited tools is incredible. Thank you so much for watching our video. God bless you
It's great to see such beautiful craftsmanship they don't make them like they used
dean harmon Howdy Dean- Thank you so much for watching and the kind comment. God bless y’all
Norm Abrams on steroids... great craftsmanship love it
Patrick Bailey Howdy Patrick- Thank you for watching and the kind words. God bless you
Nice mix of old and new world
MrRLN2010 Howdy- thank you for watching. God bless
Fantastic work! Bring on round 4 👍🏼
Howdy Ransfield- thank you so much. Glad you’re enjoying the videos. God bless
Just gotta saw mill and am planning on doing this. Thankyou so much for sharing. Started building a full scribe two story 22 years ago. Massive logs we cut and pealed. Looking to make a smaller one of these.
Howdy y’all- I’m happy you got a sawmill. They are a game changer for sure. Sounds like you already have some experience with log building. I sure wish you the very best with your cabin build. God’s blessings to y’all
Perfect connections, length, width, angle, just everything.
It´s a pleasure every time watching your enormous skill level, very good craftmanship.
Skills our anchestors had for centuries and are now long gone.
I just can applause, sir.
Ouwkackemann Howdy- thank you so much for the kind words. You’re a good encouragement to me, thank you! A lot of the old skills are about gone. Hopefully I can help renew a little bit of the old ways with a modern twist by using some power tools. Stay safe over there and God bless you
Perfect!! That is really nice! I also like the small log gaps! I never cared for the real big cracks. That hoist sure makes fast work of things
Fluty Lick Homestead Howdy Jared- Thank ya for the kind words. I kinda like the smaller gaps too. Boy, I sure do appreciate that hoist cause I can get the logs up by myself. Thanks for watching brother. God bless y’all
Wow this is such a wonderful project
Pople BackyardFarm Howdy y’all- Thank you so much for watching! Take care up there and be safe. God bless ya’ll
Un grand bonjour de la France, vous êtes formidable.
Marius Conrad Howdy- Thank you for coming by and watching. God bless you
I really enjoy watching your videos. These are a must see for everyone that thinks cabins are rough and crude.
Howdy Rusty- I sure appreciate you watching our videos. As with anything they can be taken to a new level and improved on. God bless you
nothing like seeing those good sized logs coming together keep up the good work.
sinatra lerby Howdy-Thank you so much for watching our videos! Yeah, some of these logs have a little weight to em. God bless you
That smoke house looks like it last for 100 years. Every joint is so perfect and tight!
Bob DiNovo Howdy Bob- Thank you so much! I kinda think it’ll be here for a while. God bless y’all
Those were some beautiful joints sir! Almost like you’ve done this a time or two before :-). Really enjoy watching this series! Have a great weekend
Cruze's Louisiana Outdoors Howdy y’all- thank you so much for the kind words. Yeah, I’ve cut a few notches. God bless y’all
The cabin is looking good as it goes up, stay safe, don't over do anything, on ur own pace, God bless.
Edward Seth Howdy Edward- I try to do everything as safely as possible because I work by myself. Thank you so much for watching. God bless y’all
Looking beautiful
Completely Distracted Howdy- thank you for the kind words. God bless you
You are amazing every joint fits perfectly. Can’t wait to see the finished project.
Gerald Roth Howdy Gerald- Thank you so much for the kind words. God bless y’all
I’m so in love with your building approach. You’re an inspiration and so lovely to learn from; your thoroughness and warm enjoyment of the process. Thank you. I look fwd to more.
Howdy Ma’am- Thank you so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it. Take care and God bless you
Just watching this video again - that hoist is brilliant! Really like your tractor too. This will look so nice. I like how your logs are cut so that the tops and bottoms have some natural curves in them, that will look nice. I will be interested to see how you do the chinking too. I am starting to think more about that task. Really happy we have connected!
Penniac Wilderness Howdy- glad you came by and watched again. That old tractor is a 1970 model but still gets the job done. I work by myself and have to have a way to move logs around. I got the idea for the hoist from my buddies who are log builders. I changed a couple things on it but basically it is their idea. It’s sure an easy way for me to get logs up on the wall. I appreciate the fact you could handle your logs like you did, but, I ‘m a wee bit older than you lol. I love what you have accomplished with your cabin. God’s blessings on y’all
Penniac Wilderness Oh, I was gonna tell you that we have a video on how I do the chinking. It’s in the smoke house series of videos.
This is beautiful to follow
Howdy Jimmy- I sure appreciate you watching the videos. God bless
Looks to me like 12 thumbs down need a hammer smack, this man deserves nothing but thumbs up!
John Stewart Howdy John- that might hurt hehe. Thank you for your support. I appreciate you very much. God bless y’all
It's coming along quite nicely. I proud of you.
I can't wait to start my own log home build.
I have the land and I'm getting closer to build day.
Have a Blessed Day Sir. :)
Tim Giles Howdy Tim, thank you so much. Glad you got your land and about ready to start your cabin. Hope all goes well for you. Making a dream become a reality is very rewarding. God bless you
Tjank You Brother, glad to see You in good health and able to do this. Praise Our Redeemer.
Lee Hicks Howdy Lee- Thank you so much for watching. I’m gul can still do this kind of work cause I sure do enjoy it. God bless and keep y’all
Well done ,
Good Bless You
Gabriele Campagnola Howdy, thank you so much for watching. I appreciate it. May God bless you
Well done Paul :) a pleasure to follow along as you hoist them into position, stay safe out there team.
Richard Solomon Howdy Richard- Thank ya so much for watching. Staying safe here. God bless y’all
I like how big the logs are and gos small the chinking gaps, I've seen a lot of pictures where the chinking gap is almost as big as the logs and I like the smaller gaps look much better. I hope my cabin will turn out as nice.
Matthew Waters Howdy Matthew- since l’m using the natural shape of the logs some of the gaps will be different sizes. I use one inch as a base when I figure out the notch dimension. But sometimes ( according to the shape of the log) the gaps vary somewhat. I do not like a real wide gap. God bless and keep y’all safe
Bout forgot to tell you but, I wish you the very best on your build. Would love to see some pictures. Blessings

Very enjoyable to watch. A video on your hoist device for lifting the log and moving it around would be awesome. Thanks from Canada.Never Mind...just watched the previous video where you talk about the hoist. 👍
antlese Howdy-so glad you enjoyed the videos. Yeah, that old hoist is a great big help for me cause I do everything by myself. I don’t think I could lift those logs without it, we’ll, l know l couldn’t cause l ain’t that stout hehe. God bless y’all and keep ya’ll safe
LIKE A GLOVE!! :-)
Lance Ladewig Howdy Lance- Thank you so much for what and the encouragement. God bless you

Keep at it. 👏👍
Cordell W. Carr Howdy Brother- gonna keep agoin on it. Sure do miss y’all! Be glad when all this stuff settles down so we can get together. God bless you
I really like your videos and for the precision of your work. Does shrinkage undo your level of paying attention to detail?
Howdy Lowell- thank you so much for watching our videos. I sure appreciate it. I don’t have any problem with things moving much because everything is coming straight down. Sometimes a small gap will open at the shoulders because of shrinkage on the thickness of the logs but the notches stay tight. That can be taken care of by tapping the log in and making a handsaw pass to tighten it up. I will do that occasionally. Take care and God bless
Impressive! ❤️
Jeannie Glidewell Heil Howdy Sis-Thank you very much! Y’all take care and stay safe. God bless ya’ll
Do you have any young men around that want to learn your skill sets? Subbed too
Howdy- no, I don’t, sure wish I did. Have thought about doing a workshop if I can figure out the logistics. Thank you for subscribing to our channel. God bless
Admirável trabalho. Saúde, nestes tempos de covid19.
Marciano Marques Howdy- Thank you for watching. We’re staying safe here. God bless you
True Yankee craftsman, oops! I mean Southern Craftsman!
George R Rust Howdy George- hehe I have found there are really good craftsman up North. I have had the pleasure to get to work with some. Thank you so much for the kind words. God bless y’all
So excited to see the roof system go on this that I can barely handle it. Are you planning on building trusses/purlins etc or will you buy and engineered truss or hand frame rafters? Id love to see you build the trusses out of timbers and curious how you make the face/angle of the purlins on the same plain for the roof sheeting. Keep up the good work! Love watching, thanks
Camaro 68 Howdy- I wouldn’t put engineered trusses on a log cabin. I will cut out the roof system out of timbers kind of keeping with tradition. We’ll get there one of these days. God bless y’all
@@TheBeardedCarpenter Thanks looking forward to watching!
Very nice. I still would like to see how you measure out the dice tail joint on a log ,,,,if you have one ,,,I must of over looked it,,,,
Dennis Campbell Howdy Dennis- If you watch the video where I payed out the sill logs I do a lay- out there. We’re working on a video of the complete log lay out and cutting the notches. I also explain how l come up with the notch dimension. Having to work out audio problems on that video. Please bear with us till we get it fixed. God bless and keep y’all
Did you have any problems with shrinkage or did you air dry your logs before using. Also did you pin the corners and with what, rebar, log screws. spikes? I got my logs last week and I have to let them dry some before using. Anxious to get started.
Howdy HG- there will be some shrinkage as the logs season out. I like to use the logs green and allow for the settling that will take place. I use angle iron in the openings and the logs can slide down without any problems. I know some people pin the corners but I don’t because the half dovetail keeps the logs in place. I did use 1/2” lag bolts on a historical restoration on the corners because the notch was a flat notch and there was no holding power. There’s nothing wrong with letting the logs season out at all. In fact, the log builders in the European countries would cut their timber and let them season for three years or so. I’m sure you are anxious to get started on your cabin. Building a log cabin is very satisfying. I wish you the very best with your build. God bless you
Sir, do you put wood dowels or anything to hold the logs in place or do you rely on the over all weight of the structure to hold them in place?
Linda NWFirefighter Howdy Linda- the half- dovetail holds really well. I use angle iron in the openings to keep them straight and allow for settling to take place. I use a long all-thread bolt to tie the top four rounds together. I feel that if dowels aren’t put in so the upper log can settle can cause some hang up problems. I have never had any problems with how l do things. Thank you for watching and God bless you
Just one question ‘ at 7-40 u chiseled a flat on the log to give a level seating for the next log ‘ do u think rain water could flow in on that flat if hit by rain and strong winds ‘ what type of chinking are u going to use ‘ silicone based or mortar ‘ by the way excellent workmanship ‘ love that gig chisel ‘ greetings from Ireland
Martin Byrne Howdy Martin- after l put the flat spots for the blocking to hold up the shorter logs l put Anchorseal on it. Anchorseal is a water based parroting that seal and protects during construction. I use a mortar ( sand, Portland, masonry cement and mortar tint for color. I used to use sifted red clay for the color but the dye is so much easier. Digging and sifting clay can be work, especially if it’s a little damp We have a video ( smoke house) where l show how l do the chinking. God bless y’all
Paul, I was asked to look at a log home a local lady started last summer because a number of her logs started splitting. For whatever reason she is using white pine square cut logs. There are no notches anywhere and not even pins to keep everything in place from shifting. I've never seen or heard of such construction method. The logs are square cut about 12"x12" and some of the splits are better than a 1/3 the length of the log and several are nearly 2" wide. I would like your insight on this very much. The house is being built on an open mesa (high flat desert) and it's not at all unusual to see 60 mph winds. She is an older woman with no knowledge about construction and I'm a bit concerned about her safety living in the place when it's done.
Sounds like but and pass style corners..must have screws going through?
Dave Johnson Howdy Dave- Wow, sounds like something is going on for sure. You can get me through the website Broad Axe Beamworks. My phone number is there. We may have to figure something out for this lady. Sounds like she needs some help. God bless y’all
That’s looking so good Paul👍 now tell me do you have the interior layout figured out? Or are you just going by feel as your going along?
Open Air Outdoors *LeRichebliss* Howdy Marc- The interior will have a down stairs and a loft upstairs. It’s pretty easy to gain footage with a loft for not a lot more money. Thanks so much for your support. Stay safe and God bless y’all
How do you get your crane out of there ??? does it break down into parts???
Howdy y’all- yes, I disassemble it. The tall hoist I use downstairs has a fixed base but the short hoist I use upstairs has a three piece base that comes apart and can be lowered easily. Take care and God bless
👍👏
Lars Kiel Howdy Lars- Thank you so much for watching the video! God bless and keep you
Do have plan's.for your beam hoist?
William Breuer Howdy William-I don’t have plans for it but I will be building another one to use upstairs but the boom won’t be as y’all. I probably should draw up some plans on the one l’m using so people could have them. God bless you
I've been studying you videos all winter and now digging piers and footings for the cabin I'll build this summer. Did you say somewhere your tall hoist boom is 13 ft long and is the base the same as your small one as far as length of 2x6s? How much counter weight do you load on the back? Thanks for all you share!
👏 👌 😉 🇫🇷
michel Apiculture Howdy Michel- Thank you so much! God bless you
What kind of trees do you use
Howdy Eugene- I used southern yellow pine. That’s what is available where we live. God bless
Paul, did you ever work or take a log building course from Peter Gott? I see a lot of his techniques in your work. Thanks Paul!
Johnji108 Howdy John- I never took Peter’s work shop but I have met his son,Tim, a great guy. The fellas I worked with had worked for Peter a good many years. They are a great bunch of men. I really appreciate what they took the time to show me. The way I do things is what Peter taught them and many others. I have over the years picked up on a few things of my own. After working with someone like those guys you can do some figuring out on your own. I sure appreciate what they did for me. I ‘m glad you picked up on how l do things, that’s really cool. God bless y’all
😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
ZEKİ TAŞER Howdy- Thank you so much for watching. God bless you
Going to have a covered porch or deck and the cabin going to have windows?
Santa OB Howdy Santa- yes, there will be a covered porch on three sides. There will be three windows down stairs and two up stairs. Thanks for watching the video. God bless you
I watched until Ep 20. Basically the construction method is wrong! I'm afraid You are doing a lot of waste.
