Log cabin

[ezdays]

Don i did some tinkering and your right about looking smooth even in ho they don't show much relief, so my suggestion would leave facing side of logs with bark on them and flatten top and bottom to achieve the two-inch spacing using n scale around 14-inch logs. my log chopper is set to cut 22 ho logs (easy to change) so what length would you like the logs cut to 6 inches is max on my log chopper.

Jim, 6" would work fine, I figure 1.5" + 2.5" would give me front and one side with some waste. 12 pieces would get me the four walls 8' high. 22 pieces would allow me to go two stories if I wanted to. My thought though is to flatten the outside like in the photos that I posted. In some cases that I've seen on the show, they leave the bark on top and bottom since it's covered by the chinking. I've watched those guys drawing off the bark on logs that they just took down. Whatever I wind up doing, I'm getting excited about it, should be fun....

You should have my address, but  let me know if you don't. I thank you in advance good sir...
