That's great news!
We had a similar situation this week at our property. We have 160 acres of bush, but because of the thick underbrush, beaver dams, swamps, etc it has been a challenge to find...
Me and my husband just took the course 3 weeks ago. Rest assured that it is well worth it. With the Canadian dollar so low right now it cost us approx $4000 CAD and we both still think it was a...
The love you two have for each other, and the passion to pursue your dreams together and build you own log home is VERY inspiring to us. Thanks for sharing your day with us.

Unfortunately we...
Whether it's learning about how to build a log cabin, what tools to use, eating muffins, or listening to men speak so highly of their women....this forum always gives me warm fuzzies and a few...
Of course all of this might change after taking the class, but from what we have researched (economically, enviromentally & easy of installation)...our plan for our 1-1/2 story 28x28 home is to use...
Are screw pilings an option for a Butt and Pass build? I am assuming you would have to modify the support head to incorporate a plate with vertical rebar to accommodate the first course?
That's great twh4!! I have a daughter your age, and I would love to give her the gift of attending the class someday!! You are decades ahead of most of us....good on ya!!
Looking forward to meeting you and your family Mike. But I have a question...if you just took the course a few years ago, why do you think you need it again?? Do you get a better rate if you are...
Sorry to hear of your friends untimely death. It was the death of my husbands brother and best friend that has shown us that life is just too damn short, and has motivated us to do this!!

I think that might deserve it's own thread :confused:
You all keep teasing. ...it's gonna be a long winter til FEB! ! Lol
Grrrrrrrr. Ok you got me.
All I have to say now is. ...GAME ON!
LOL
Ahhhhh, ok, it all makes sense now. I'm glad I asked.
But truth be told...my imagination was a much wilder story.....and probably better left unsaid
As I read through all the threads and boggle my mind with never ending questions....the one questions that always comes to the forefront....what's the story with the muffins??? It seems to be an...
Can we build the barrel out of logs?? :p
Thanks!! You've just answered my next questions...you are all so good at this game with the newbies LOL
I AM in an uproar!! I get to buy another tool!!
I didn't think there were many tools we DIDN'T have....so I get a tad bit excited to buy and try new ones :p
The logging tools we obviously didn't...
please enlighten the newbie...
Is a demo hammer, hand-held jackhammer, and breaker hammer all the same tool, but with different names?
After lots of research and searching on this forum, we weren't convinced that we should use Aspen either, but since that's what we have....we will use it (with large overhangs and wrap around deck)....

Clear as mud now....thanks LOL
:p
I think we are going to fell a few trees this winter and girdle a few too, then a few in the spring and ....they will be "trial" runs, and most likely used as...
