RE: Practice for axe work
Log selection.....consistent sizing would make life easy....if you are felling your own you need to do it October...and remove the bark ...ready for next year 8 " to 9 " log size ....when scribing your log interlocks use a saw ....then the axe......base wise go with a stilt log set up and raised floor ...this will double for your deck ....use a cross diagonal check to square up the building / floor....if you go this root ...use your birch tar for logs below ground....if you tell me the overall size including the deck i will give you ,,,,,tie sizes .....you can build your logs up off a level platform.....have a go S but enjoy it ....do not rush it .....pleasure of doing a good solid job is everything ! when it comes to the windows and doors....leave that to me ....that will be my pleasure to make them for you .....for fuck all .
