In this episode, we continue gathering dirt for our raised beds. We also experience the last snow of the year, and have some interesting wild animal encounters at the cabin. We try out a new mortar technique involving putting nails between the logs to help hold the mortar in place and prevent it from cracking, which our previous chinking was doing. The test was successful so we continue chinking two sides of the cabin. We also carry up more metal roofing to complete the porch roof as well as the woodshed roof.
Welcome to our channel! This Log Cabin Project is a dream that we have had for several years that we finally decided to make a reality. Our goal is to build a tiny log cabin from scratch using as much material from our land as possible. We are building it entirely using hand tools (no chainsaw!). This cabin will function fully off-grid and will be only accessible by foot. Subscribe to follow our journey! We are learning a lot as we are doing (as always), so don't hesitate if you have any questions, it will be a pleasure to share tips and tricks, if possible.
