If you want a log cabin as opposed to a Framed(stick-built) cottage you probably want it to have a Rustic look. Along comes Adirondack country Log Homes (four years ago) with a hand-pelled red pine log showing branch stubs and red cambium left from the red bark.
The cabins are constructed based on the post and bean principal. Gable (end) walls have full logs to roof line. You see log roof rafters on the interior supporting the roof. You see log floors joists supporting the second floor and Log Girders supported by Log Posts. A Full Log Cabin (no2xbys) no metal plates and “Affordable Authentic” Free Building Service are provided as mentioned on the website. www.ADKcountryLoghomes.com
The log walls have a patented mitered mortise and tenon corner interlock system for energy efficiency, a hallmark in the log cabin construction industry.
The manufacturing facility is located in Ashley-falls, Mass and practices the principals of sustainable forestry and green building. All waste products are recycled. Sawdust to farmers for bedding. Wood chips to Fibar manufacturers for children's playgrounds, bark chips to landscapers and branches for post, railing and spindles for ducks, stairs and lofts. Shipping is by commercial flat bed truck within the continental U.S. Or export.
Many of the custom cabins are actually modified versions of the standard models. There is NO CHARGE for custom plans. Free estimates are available to anyone who may consider a log Home Building Project.
