You must be better at controling that thing than we are to risk putting it through the [window] like that.
YEARS of practice.
Every time I have strayed from the teachings of Skip Ellsworth it has cost me money.
I love the mask mandate. I hardly ever have to bruh my teeth anymore.
I like the cordwood idea. You can make your walls as thick as you like. very easy to build for a guy or gal, no heavy lifting really....and you can get pretty creative by easily making arches and such. I think the hardest part would be avoiding slopping mortar all over the logs.
I like this design:

There are some interesting looking houses on that link. Looks like it could be a way to do the gable ends as an alternative to full log gables (allthough a lot more work than board and batten).
Ooooooh, I really like that idea. I'd steal it, but on a 12:12 pitch roof, I don't think it'd look quite right.

Ehhh, yea, I guess the look can be pulled off, but with the help of window and door openings. I'm not planning on much of that in the gables, and I think that would be too much cordwood to come off looking right.
