This was a kit they had delivered to the site. Lincoln has an office about forty minutes from me.

One thing that makes this special in my opinion is the fact that all the lumber for this comes directly off of this property. It is a lot of extra work but I'm hoping it will be worth it.

Don't ever make the mistake of using spikes or rebar in erecting log cabins. Use hardwood pegs driven into drilled holes. The logs can settle when drying and you can cut a window or door anywhere without worrying about hitting steel. Allow for generous settlement when drying through the years.
The settlement is a major concern for me. I would hate to have it look good now but in a year or two have it look uneven or not level.
