Appalachian Style Log Home (Square Log) sampler video

Описание: Are you thinking of building your dream log cabin home, but aren't sure what style of log cabin you like? This is a sampler video of Appalacian Style (Square Log) log homes built by Caribou Creek Log Homes.

Traditionally found in the mountains of the eastern United States, this style has gained significant traction throughout the country. The flat sides of the square logs make hanging pictures, cabinets, etc, simpler while retaining the warm, rustic feel of a log home. This style is built with dovetail corners and is available with all the same surfacing options as our standard timbers. As with all timber projects, checking can be minimized by using FOHC (Free of Heart Center) timbers, or boxed-heart may be used for deeper checking and a more rustic look. This design style pairs well with timber trusses and roof system, or with round log accents. Our non-settling construction can be used with the Appalachian Dovetail style as well.

Upkeep: The chinking will need to be touched up after the initial log shrinkage, but then it will last a lifetime. Routine reapplication of stain will be required.
