Building log cabin: Cutting Dovetail Notches

[@raydreamer7566]

Great job ! I wish I could spend a couple of weeks with this guy doing cutting and fitting.

[@polygamous1]

His cuttings are amazing very accurate the way he cuts with the chain saw is almost unbelievable Great skills always good to watch a craftsman like this

[@handduggraverdronline]

Really not hard to use a chainsaw

[@TheMirelyght]

/claps that was awesome...watched the whole thing. that joint isn't going anywhere and the craftsmanship was enjoyable to see.

[@gateway8833]

Beautiful joinery. I grew up as a Wheelwright Apprentice. I started at 8 years old stacking spoke blanks and finished when I was 18. Some of you on here say to slow, just eyeball it. Where is the artistry, the satisfaction of a perfect job, the discipline to your craft.

[@deepwoodtickles]

In the same place your stuff is stored waiting for the cabin to be finished.I sincerely hope he is faster than that and just showing people at a slow pace, otherwise his housebulding legacy will be one unfinished cabin.

I am rather certain your logs are not completely straight. Do you crown the logs up before scribing each log?

[@axixgraham8667]

Great workmanship or craftsmanship well done.

[@williamnelson727]

I guess it depends on how much time you have, how many skilled people to help, what tools, and `raw' material etc. I'll have to say; having the very best turned, rolled, seasoned, kiln dried logs makes a BIG difference. It's basically round lumber in this example. In other words, perfect building material. This is log~construction highly developed to Swiss craftsmanship.

[@FANG1950]

Nice exact work...but...why not show the connection being made??? after watching several of your videos....none of them show an end product...only the getting to it...quite unsatisfying...

You should have made a note in your video if your not handy with a chain saw you can use any saw you like. greate video.

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

I have never seen it done this way before. Looks fantastic but very labour intensive and slow. Great video though.

[@bd8677]

It would be faster to wrap a sapling with a metal dovetail mold and let it grow into shape.

[@SeeTheWholeTruth]

Just missing the xray machine for the knot detection for saw resistance and appropriate return force and speed ratio. My word.

[@darrellsmith6773]

I may be wrong, but why not cut out a precise templet to match both joints. Then apply to a jig that can be used over and over again without all the tedious measuring and marking. Kind of like a scarf joint. looks like extra work and waisted time. somebody comment here for me. Darrell in Georgia

[@geoffreycurrieIII]

good call

[@speckspeck]

he did that after the first setups

[@ElBundz]

I believe the joint dimensions depend on the dimensions of the logs, and as logs like these are never of the same size, and they are not perfectly round..... It's like fitting a kitchen top to a 200yr old plastered wall.... *grin*

[@mihkus]

You cant because every log is different.

[@thetomster7625]

correct me if I'm wrong: isn't the purpose of a log cabin, that its easy and basically quick and dirty?! And isn't the use of precision joinery kinda the opposite of that?!

[@Thelonelyscavenger]

the TOMSTER you could. some cabins were put up hastily because a shelter was needed quickly. my grandfather slept under a spruce tree till his cabin was finished.

[@tuno2008]

[@timtation5837]

The purpose of a cabin is sometimes a rugged shelter and sometimes it is a well crafted family home that is meant to last generations. Have you seen some of the incredible carpentry in asian countries? Timber frames, incredible joinery, 12 story pagodas put together like architectural jigsaw puzzles, they they now realize still survive earthquakes several hundred years later. It doesn't surprise me to see artistry like that from an asian guy... And that guy had mad skills with everything he touched. While I personally would have chosen a different solution, I appreciate the art and the skill he showed.

[@salvatoremassimino3396]

the TOMSTER ,

[@kalev60]

This is quick and dirty, easiest version of dovetail joint, if he was doing the dovetail with wind blocking vertical parts in the joints it would take even longer to measure and cut the joint. IF you are building a log cabin that will stand with little problems for hundreds of years precition will pay off.

[@looncraz]

Why not create a template to save time? You would then only need to center the template and transcribe the shape of one log to the other for mating. You could use the template on job after job.

[@BarniRepairs]

every log differs. it would be a waste of potential binding strength to apply the same dimension to a 20%thicker log

[@looncraz]

You can make an adjustable template ;-)

As I watched this I kept hearing what my students would shout " Where's his PPE?" ( Personal Protective Equipment).. We ding it into our students to never start their chainsaw before putting on all the kit.. chainsaws are nasty, especially if you are using the tip of the bar like that. Nice precise work, but dangerous practice..
