How To get a PERFECT Seal Log Cabin 14 - One Man Traditional Log Cabin series Eddrin: I'm looking at your website from Trinidad in the West indies (Caribbean, your workmanship is excellent. Especially with the fact that you are using very little modern tools. I'm impressed with you planting back young trees before starting your project (many people in the world should learn from your example. Keep up the good work and also make sure and finish further your education.

You do absolutely beautiful work. My only comment I know from experience the way you're holding your thumb you might end up with carpal tunnel syndrome don't use your thumb as a lever on your handle of your axe or other tools. It really screws up your hands in the long run, like 20 years down the line. Beautiful work.

OK - I'm lovin this. Erik, who did your video work and the axe throw at the beginning of (14) - how many takes did it take for you to get that? (genuinely lovin this whole series and wish I could get you to build one for me) - AWESOME, going to record this series just to sit down and watch it when on the road driving.

First log takes the longest time, second log is faster, third log even faster, fourth log you are an expert and can teach others. I fix complex radiation therapy machines. same principle applies. You do excellent work. I'm glad you are teaching us.

There's something I've seen done on log cabins that for some reason never seems to get mentioned for leveling the logs. The logs are reversed end-for-end from one to the next one up so that the small end always goes on top of the large end.
reply

What is the name of the tool you use for marking your lines before you carve your logs? And FYI the best videos of log cabin buildings I've ever seen! It helped me a lot to figure what my next steps are before I start building my walls.
reply

Great work, 4 walls, no doors or windows, how do you get in? about the roof? and if you ever feel like listing the name of the tools and what they are called dohhh it would be greatly appreciated, of course unless its Swedish secret. LOL
reply

I couldn't help but wonder about the legal status of the forest. I mean whose property is it, are you really allowed to build something on the forest land as you do and keep it there?
reply

I have zero desire to build a cabin but can someone explain why the moss? wouldnt it just get wet and rot after a while? and wouldnt that attract bugs as well? idk maybe im just dumb
reply

Was the moss wet when you put it on? It looked a bit like that. Just curious if it is not getting moldy with wet moss as sealant / if you should dry the moss beforehand.
reply

I'm pretty sure back in the day they would have made you Chief Totem Pole carver if you had been Indian.
Cheers Erik just shows you what you can do with a good axe.

reply

Youve made a perfect work.
Can you make a list about your axes and other stuff, the name, size and etc.
I want to make a similar log cabin

reply

Are you using the Veritas log scribe that has the little bubble level on it? I have one and use it all the time for finish carpentry
reply

Erik you do amazing wood work I am proud to say I have watched you do this want to see the in side of the cabin when it is done!
reply

Just watched the whole video something hours need to spent to lol Literally what's on his entire YT was talking about.
reply

Watching those logs move every time the axe or adze strikes them, is a strong argument for the use of log dogs.
reply

Where can I get a drill like the one at 0: 29? I've been looking all over ebay and other shops. No luck yet.
reply

Admire your skills and determination man. But who the hell would downvote this video i dont understand.
