The log cabin build continues. Misplaced my pen so I had to use my knife as a marker. Starting my day with rain. It got better after a while. It takes time when I’m learning the craft at the same time. But as the got better my skills also got better making it more efficient.
Swedish: Timmerhusbygget fortsätter. Påbörjar andra varvet på stommen. Gör ett långdrag för första gången. Använder timmerdraget / passaren. Behöver helt klart öka min färdighet i att rita på för långdraget och att välja stockar som passar ihop. Har valt att inte göra mossrännor i det här läget, utan gör dem när stommen ställs på sin plats. Kanske ändrar mig under resans gång. Gör heller inga dymlingar i den här fasen. Kompletterar med det när den står på sina rätta plats.

Nice job Simon. Takes a while to get the cuts right! Never built a log cabin. There is a lot to it! 👍👍

Thanks! Indeed it does. But eventually I’ll hopefully get better at it. It’s hard work for sure. In the US I’ve seen that you often time use a different method and apply “shinking” in between the logs instead of making a tight “draw” as I make in the end of this video. Have you come across that? If you haven’t made a log cabin, what did you do when you worked as a carpenter? Dimensional lumber, timber framing?

@@simon__aslund Yes house construction and a friend of mine worked at his family’s boat yard on the ocean so I worked with him on weekends doing wood boat repair. His father was getting older and wanted to sell the business. So my friend and I bought it and ran a boat repair business full time for 30 years. We were one of the few places that still did wood repair. We hired some people and did fiberglass repair as well and eventually did everything from bow to stern. I really enjoyed it. My father was a carpenter all his life so I started that at an early age. I am 69 now took he Facility Maintenance job at the ski resort to keep busy in the winter. Rest of the year I am retired! 😃🤣😂 I have watched other log cabin builds and seen chinking . Some mortar based and some in a caulking tube I also have seen foam put between the logs.

Wow that’s really cool! Working on boats. I don’t know one bit about boats, but I like them. Sounds like a really rewarding career. Also boats and ski resorts sounds like a big contrast. Chinking, that’s right. I spelled it wrong. Seems to be a fun thing to try sometime. I’ve also seen foam and mineral wool. But the really experienced log cabin builders here Sweden says that will make the logs rot due to those materials inability to “breathe”. Here Scandinavia we typically use moss when we isolate between the logs using traditional methods. Works great! Even sheep wool. Also works great.

@@simon__aslund Yes that makes sense for helping rot! Your country has some real old cabins still standing so they can’t be wrong! Good luck. Will be watching. 👍👍

Indeed! Oldest in this area is from around 13th century. Thank you! There will be more videos soon. 👍
