Project log cabin | Hand hewing the ridgepole

Not very much progress this time, but it was a lot of fun hand hewing the ridgepole. The pine was too close to our home and the cabin so I had to cut it down anyway.
If the Coronavirus keeps us at home for a some time, I know how to spend my time :)

For me, the ideas in kzbin.infoUgkxAfqpMLyFn37qcqUl0FAzqkkycQeXqrhP Plans were a starting point for building different sheds . Ryan gives ideas that allow an individual to draw nicest conclusions into the design and building of his or her own shed.

My brother and my cousin and I are building a traditional log cabin in southern Oregon, US. All hand tools, no chainsaws, no mills, just elbow grease baby. It is so rewarding to see it come to fruition.

Very enjoyable video as always. I like watching you hewning your beams. The hewn beam's will be beautiful to look at I think. Great job and God bless you and your family.

Looking so familiar! I tried once to hand hew logs, but even if I worked all day, I managed to Finnish only one or two logs with just using axes. Making cross cuts first with a chainsaw makes the work much faster and the final result is the same. Just more logs hewed after the days work is done. Keep up the good work!

Hand hewing all the logs would be enormous job, but I hope I can build cabin that way in the future.

[@IveysFamilyFactotum]

Hand hewed logs are super nice I fully agree that they are just beautiful. If I knew I could do a whole cabin that way i would love to do it...my shoulders would never let me get away with it for long though I would think...never know, we will see what happens in the future.

Nice! hewn timber looks very good!

[@robenglish416]

Nice tools: Fiskars and Stihl! How often do you have to sharpen chisel, looks really sharp?

[@jasonreid611]

Thanks for the video’s. I’m enjoying watching the cabin come together. Is this method of creating a groove to fit logs together a Finnish tradition?

Sir. Is the cutting edge on the draw knife turned up or down

[@logantidwell7698]

Hewing is a fun word

[@oblio2255]

Would a broad ax be less apt to gouge in?

[@FinnishPlayground]

You are right, this is not perfect ax for this job, but I need to use what I have.

[@ЕвгенийЧёрный-о6п]

Jos tämä ei ole vaikeaa, kertokaa meille, miten voitte laillisesti kaataa puun Suomessa?

[@FinnishPlayground]

дерево в моей собственности :)

[@ЕвгенийЧёрный-о6п]

@@FinnishPlayground Venäjällä on parasta saada lupa kaataa puu teidän alueellanne. Muuten saat sakot.
