Blog post about getting the Ridge Pole up. Learn from my mistakes: have the crane set the RP up on the RPSL's, MARK IT, then take it back down and cut a nice big flat spot where it will sit on the RPSL's. Also spike it with 2 pieces of rebar, instead of just 1. Anyway, enjoy!

Hi everyone, I made a new blog post: cutting rafters. https://loghomejourney.wordpress.com...tting-rafters/ Hopefully, I'll be installing my RP in less than 2 weeks.
Hello Fellow Log House enthusiasts. I would like to volunteer my skills as a carpenter/Handyman and 2017 graduate of the Vegas Class, to anyone building a log house north of Seattle (Snohomish, Skagit and Whatcom Counties) I have experience in building with logs in the B and P style. I have tools. Would like to meet up with others that are building in Western WA and those that have taken the class. Feel free to ask me more. Thank you Ian ...
https://loghomejourney.wordpress.com...sls-installed/ RPSL's are in place! yay! talked to the neighbor last night- she's letting me get about a dozen more trees from her property for use as rafters. I'm bringing her stuffed-shell lasagna. She says it's a fair trade.
