Log Cabin Wood Shop - Log Porch

Yesterday we finished the log porch. Hats off to Debbie for tirelessly peeling every log. Working with 9-10" irregularly shaped round logs is an interesting experience. It was a nervous feeling to hack into those nice logs - one mistake and you'd have to start over. Notching along the long log to allow the beam rafters to sit level was a bit of work too.

Next task is to lay the 1x8 T&G boards (pre-stained by Debbie) on top of the rafters, put up the facias, and cover it with tar paper. Then I start on electrical until the metal roof arrives.
