Projects
Here are my favorite log cabins that I have built recently.
Washington on the Bravos
This was a small but detailed project I built for a history museum in Texas. It features a hand-hewn Eastern Red Cedar log, sapling rafters, dovetail floor joists, and live edge roof lath—all true to traditional building methods.
It was a fun and rewarding build, and I’m proud to have been part of creating something that helps share our history with others.
Cabin in the Ozark Mountains
My good friend Paul Glidwell—known on YouTube as The Bearded Carpenter—invited me to help with a large, two-story log home in the beautiful Ozark Mountains. I worked on cutting and setting the log walls before returning home, so the photos show the home in progress.
Even though it’s not finished yet, this project is off to a great start. It’s shaping up to be a truly special home.
Maryland Log Addition
This couple had their two-story log cabin built 30 years ago by three of my mentors—Gary, Alan, and Lenny. Recently, they reached out to me to design and build an addition to their beautiful home.
It’s an honor to continue the work started by the craftsmen who taught me, and to add to a home that’s already full of history and character.
San Felipie de Austin Historic Site
This story-and-a-half log building was built for a history museum in Texas. It features hand-hewn red oak logs, traditional dovetail notches, full round floor joists, and timber-framed porches.
Every detail was crafted using historic techniques, making this a meaningful project that helps bring the past to life.
Trusted Across the Country
You may notice that we travel all over the country for our projects.
That’s because the skills and knowledge needed to build authentic log cabins are rare—and people call on us when they want it done the right way.
