Wow! I know that everyone who has watched this has probably wised that this was THEIR home! Thats the best endorsement of your work that I can think of! God bless you and yours!
It was so much fun working with Paul and David. Thank you so much Paul for including me in this project. I cant wait to come back down to help some more. Looking great.
Howdy Dan- thank you so much for sharing your skills and knowledge of log building and for the fantastic help. So looking forward to seeing you again. Stay safe and warm. God’s blessings to y’all
An ole fashion build with a new twist on Building, An some ole fashion guys that know what you’re doing fine work gentleman can’t wait for the next video
Howdy y’all- I sure appreciate your kind words. Yeah, perhaps we should have been born in a different century lol. Thank you so much for watching the video. God bless
That machine is a life saver,same way I did mine,alone too... HELPFUL ADVICE TO WHOEVER IS OPERATING THE MACHINE. ALWAYS RUN MACHINE AT IDLE (WHEN DOING LOGS ) IT WILL BE SO MUCH SMOOTHER AN MAKE IT EVEN NICER FOR YOUALL. TRUST ME. GODBLESS DEEDS
Howdy y’all- yes, it’s a huge help. Makes it so much easier and safer. I think my mic may have distorted the engine sound somewhat. He’s pretty much been running at an idle when setting logs. I’ve never tried to run it yet. I might end up in the creek lol. Thank you so much for your good advice. Take care and God’s blessings to you
Howdy Brother- thank you so much for the kind words. I sure appreciate it. Hope your cabin project is going well. Looking forward to seeing another video of it. Stay safe and warm out there. God’s blessings to y’all
Howdy y’all- yes, it has made it so much easier to move logs and set them on the building. Thank you so much for watching the videos. God’s blessings to you
Howdy Brother- thank you so much for the kind words. Hope you made it through the nasty weather we’ve had lately. Take care my friend. God’s blessings to you
@TheBeardedCarpenter yes sir...survived the frozen and now it's straight mud lol. The ground needs the moisture tho so I'm pleased. Stay safe and blessing brother
Howdy Chris- we made it just fine through the nasty weather. Lots of snow,freezing rain and just plain ol downpours. It a little bit saturated now. Thank you so much for watching the video. God bless
I have enjoyed your great team work, this build is making fast progress, I can imagine the work on all these timbers that's been carried out. Best wishes and God bless you!
Howdy Lucas my friend- we are dealing with the winter weather now but hopefully, we’ll get a break this week. Lots of snow and rain. Having someone who knows what to do with the timbers has been a wonderful blessing to say the least. I’m sure you understand what it is to get to work with someone who knows what to do. Take care and stay safe. God’s blessings to y’all
As always Paul, a GREAT building in progress. Always a pleasure to watch and prayers for your continued health and your families. God bless you for all you do
Howdy Skeeter- thank you so much for the kind words. I sure appreciate you watching the videos and for your support. Yes, Im glad Dan has been able to be a big part of the project. He’s great. God bless you
Paul I love to watch your precision when your building these log structures. Can't wait to see the finished product, and thanks for inspiring us all. John
Hi Paul, thanks for the video. Your tricks, fruit of your experience, are always significant. I see that you are still agile and can easily climb walls. Compliments. Blessings.
Howdy FD- I’m still able to get around good. Very thankful. I appreciate you watching our videos and for all of your support and prayers. Have a blessed weekend. God be with you
Howdy y’all- thank you so much for watching the videos. It’s been a while but I’ve been in your hometown several times to the festival. Enjoyed it a lot. God’s blessings to y’all
That’s definitely going to be a sweet home. Those telehandlers have carved out a serious niche for themselves. They’re good on rough ground and can lift a decent load. Hope you’re able to make it yours. Glad to see you’re still at it.
Howdy James- yeah, it sure has been a nice piece of equipment to be able to use. Having David here and him knowing how to operate it has been a blessing. Hope all is well. God bless
As always Paul and guys work is looking great!! Bet you are headed home now. Those are nice looking logs and your touch makes them a work of art. Yea the new piece of equipment reminds me of my crane, same reach just a hook and no forks and had crib steering. Love to watch you at work over. Thanks for sharing. My God watch over you folk traveling.
Howdy Tom- thank you so much for watching our videos and for the support. We’re enjoying the machine. Hope all is well with y’all. Take care and God’s blessings to y’all
Howdy y’all- thank you so much for the kind words. Much appreciated. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your cabin build. Stay safe and warm. God’s blessings to y’all
Howdy y’all- I’m a little bit ocd lol. During the years I worked with my Dad I knew he had a high level of expectations and he settled for nothing less. Thank you for your kindness. God bless you
Howdy Don- thank you so much for coming by and watching the video. I sure appreciate your kind words. Hope all is going well with you up there. Stay safe and warm. God bless
What a great project...a good hand and operator...great crew Bro. Paul..you are liking the straight edge I'm sure...beautiful site. I missed episode one...I'll find it on your channel...Blessings to the crew and family
Howdy Brother Duke- it been a wonderful project! We’re a long way from home but everything has gone well. Just dealing with the winter weather now. After many years of construction I have learned to just flow with the weather in the winter. Take care and God’s blessings to y’all
Lot of money being spent there but it is going to be a beautiful structure. Those telehandler machines have a "fine adjustment" on the hydraulics so they aren't so jerky in their motion. I would call the dealer and find out if it can be adjusted for hydraulic flow. Also the closer you keep the boom in the more stable it is. I have ran one in the past so hope this helps.
Howdy Johnny- thank you so much for the great advice. This machine is a rental. We got the long boom because of how far we have to reach across the concrete floor and for the height we will be going. Thank you for watching the video and your helpful information. Take care and God bless
Hi, Paul! We are really enjoying watching the progress of this cabin build. Are any of the timbers from your mill or were they purchased by the homeowner? Can’t wait until the next video! Take care, 😊
Howdy y’all- I sure do appreciate you watching the video. The homeowner had the timbers already cut and delivered before we ever started the job. We have twenty five more ordered. Will take around 130 total. That’s a lot of work lol. Hope y’all have a great weekend. God bless
@@TheBeardedCarpenter Sounds like lot of work, but must feel so great to see your finished product! You are building a beautiful home for someone-must feel so good. 😊
Howdy brother- thank you so much for watching the video and for the kind words. I didn’t saw the timbers. They were already here when we got here. Hope all is well. God’s blessings to y’all
Howdy y’all- the machine was having some issues. It went down on and the rental place brought us a different one. Hoping to get the other one fixed and brought back. It lifts a lot higher. Thank you so much for watching the video. God bless
Hi Paul. That's a sweet machine you got there. How easy it looks to get those logs in place - "Gently" 😅 When I see how tight those inside log corners are, I'm in ore of your precision - bravo. Can't wait to watch the next video. Nice crisp pictures and then you got so good sound on this. Have you got some new recording gear? Are you using a wireless microphone? Love it. All the best and keep safe my friend Michael.
Howdy Michael- thank you so much for your kindness. Yes, the sky track is a great piece of equipment to have on the job. I’m using a lapel mic which helps when I remember to turn it on lol. Hope all is well with you. Take care and God bless
First time ive seen your videos. Really enjoy watching the cabin build. About where are you building it? I live in the Ozarks near Springfield Missouri. Thanks and God Bless.
Hello Mr. Bearded carpenter. I have been watching your videos and from one carpenter to another you are a genius with some of the solutions you come up with. I really respect your building knowledge. One thing I want to ask you about this build. I am a fan of full scribe log construction and im trying to understand why it is you build these walls with a gap? I am curious as to the thinking behind it ?
Howdy Ken- I sure appreciate your kindness. This is the first cabin I’ve built using a square timber for a wall log. I’ve always used live edge logs. In the area where I live the old log buildings were live edge logs. Being the traditionalist I am, I try to make the cabins look like they “belong “ where they are located. I use insulation in the chinking gaps and chink over that with a more traditional chinking after the logs have settled. Hope this explains why I do what I do. Thank you so much you comment. Take care and God’s blessings to you
@TheBeardedCarpenter that completwlly does. I live in the province of alberta in canada and really understand that you do that gap for esthetic reasons. Why I asked is I am worried that when it comes time to build my home and consittering the trees I will have at my disposal, I am just worried that if I do full scribe will the logs warp bend or the structure settle so this is why i asked about gapping the logs
@@kenstockton7442 I have some friends who built a full scribe log cabin last year with the southern yellow pine that we have here. Our yellow pine is noted for wiggling a bit but as far as I know theirs has stayed put. Full scribe has been used for centuries so I feel like you would be safe to do that with your cabin. I sure wish you the very best with your build. Keep me posted on how it goes. Blessings
@TheBeardedCarpenter thank you again for your wisdom and expertise . One idea you gave me in watching your videos was that rolling hoisting mechanism you built with that hand crank 3500 lbs winch you have. I have been looking online on various sites for a winch that has 3500 lift capacity, a hand crank and with 50 feet of cable and I tell you that is hard to find up here. I would be very appreciative of you if you could tell me the make and the model of the one you have
@@kenstockton7442 I’m pretty sure I got those parts for the hoists from Northern Hydraulics. I bought the winch probably close to thirty years ago. The winch was a Shelby. You may not need a winch with that lifting capability.
Howdy Mike- thank you so much for watching the video and for your nice comment. Where are you located? Send me an email at thebeardedcarpenter8@gmail.com Take care and God’s blessings to you
I'm confused about why you seem to want a gap between logs? Why not just make them flush and flat together? Seems you're wasting a lot of time and effort diddling around with spacers... faster boring to me. Goodbye!
Howdy Bogus- I have always built with live edge logs which is the traditional way of building log cabins in the part of the country where I live. I also do my best to do what the homeowner , who is paying me, wants. Thank you for watching. God bless
Chinking gap. The log homes from where I live are usually flat rectangular logs with 2- or 3-inch gap so this style would be correct to the 1840s -50s time period or they would be live edge with a 2- or 3-inch chinking gap.
Brother Paul, it’s always a pleasure watching you and the guys working truly professionalism, many blessings
Howdy Brother- thank you so much for your support and kindness. I appreciate you so much. Hope all is well with you and your family. Take care my brother and God’s blessings to y’all

Howdy y’all- yes, it’s a huge help. Makes it so much easier and safer. I think my mic may have distorted the engine sound somewhat. He’s pretty much been running at an idle when setting logs.

Chinking gap. The log homes from where I live are usually flat rectangular logs with 2- or 3-inch gap so this style would be correct to the 1840s -50s time period or they would be live edge with a 2- or 3-inch chinking gap.
