This is my second log cabin but my first time using saddle notches. It is time consuming but I am getting the hang of it. I hope to get much better as I continue.
This is not a "How to build a log cabin" video. Its just me trying to fulfill my childhood dream of building a log cabin. I am not a carpenter, I am just doing the best I can with what I have. Thanks for watching and hopefully you subscribe for future log cabin videos.
A log cabin is a dwelling constructed of logs, especially a less finished or architecturally sophisticated structure. Log cabins have an ancient history in Europe, and in America are often associated with first generation home building by settlers.

That winch on the back sure will make life easier man handling those logs.
Sure will !
Great Seing The Cabin Take Shape, 1 Step @ A Time, Thanks Troy. ATB Ter & Mel God Bless
Thanks you guys !
Hard work indeed Troy but when you sit back one of these days and see the cabin completed you'll enjoy many many years in it. As will your kids one day...
Looking good Troy, looking forward to the rest of the build! Cheers
Fold the cable, pass it through the eye bolt and use the hook to stop it from passing back through
Keen setup when you get the pulley on there. Can’t believe your still rocking the stock tires!
Can't afford to buy new ones unfortunately...
Cheers from glenwood nl. Troy your videos relax me can’t wait for the next one. Been watching for years stay safe my friend .

Back winch with your rack on the trailer and there you go .
Great video again buddy .
Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks buddy !
Awesome job.
Thanks Halina !
Nice rig up. 👍👍
Thank you !
Looking good Troy. Any time you're using your winch you should have your bike running so you don't potentially kill your battery. Later buddy and all the best.
Thanks buddy. I'll make sure I do that for sure !
You can use an angle grinder to get tighter notches.
Or the handheld electric plane I have. I'm not concerned about the gaps. A lot of log cabins have 2 or 3 inch gaps they fill with mortar.
Coming along Troy........all in the wrist bud, take care
Thanks bud !
A Blue Tooth microphone would work wonders in you shows. Give it some though. We are from Placentia area an have followed you for a long time. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot Charlie !

Dont use spray foam, I only use it for emergencies. It looks terrible but works...
Yeah used too much on my last cabin. I'm determined not to use any on this one.
Hard work buddy!!!
Yes sir !
Gee snow in January. Go figure. LOL
???
How she going right there eh! your joints are improving very quick, nothing like hands on dirt time to learn something... like the back saver trailer set up...
Thanks Denis buddy !
Your dedication to progress is excellent🏆🏆🏆👍 🎥🍺😉
Looking great !
Thanks Shawn !
Can't wait to see it all done.
Great job. It;s going to be awesome
Thanks Diane !
Never find logs like that around here, everything is cut out. ..Awesome job
Too bad. These aren't the best logs really...
Great video it’s definitely a lot of work but the finished product will definitely be worth it
For sure, thanks !
@@13prevailbushcraft you’re welcome
Would it be easier if you pulled theblog up on the trailer from the back instead of the side just a thought keep up the good work
If I had a little ramp on the back probably. Otherwise it would jam against the back and get stuck...
How up to date is this video because you don't have much snow.
Brand new vid buddy just recorded over the last few days. Not much snow here.
Hey Troy it’s coming along awesome man! I used moss to in between the logs it works great, then I chinked it with the Dap caulking and love the way the chinking turned out
Awesome !
If I consider becoming a patron, what day does the money come out of my bank account?
Hey Jason. I believe it comes off your credit card the 1st of every month. Thanks for watching!
Why are you building so close to other structures?
I will be disassembling this cabin later to bring to the cabin site.
Эту избу в каком месте ставить будешь?
Я имею в виду место рядом с прудом с хорошей рыбалкой.
Great video, on a great project! I wonder whether you considered chinking the gaps between the logs with oakum? Besides being waterproof, it also keeps the bugs away. The moss will dry up after a couple of years, and eventually cement will crack as the cabin settles, but the oil in the oakum will last for ages. Also, oakum is a lot easier to work with than, say, fibreglass batts.
Also, if you don't mind a bit of a pink tint to the outside walls of the cabin, when you go to stain the outside of the logs, transmission fluid not only helps preserve the logs, but it is also a very good bug repellant!
Just a couple of suggestions, what a lot of work!
I would love to use oakum but the stuff is just too expensive for me...Thanks for the suggestions !
