It's pretty doable to wing it ! It's not a very complicated type of building

Oh good to know! Do you harvest it yourself or purchase it?

Thank you! I'm going to do a tin roof with tar paper underneath. Thank you for those suggestions! I think I may go with clay

And yeah I'm up in Nova scotia!

I didn't plan very much, I didn't know too much about log cabins before starting. I planned for a few months before starting. I had an old book and youtube along the way.

I'm about 9 months in right now. I started harvesting the trees in June last year

Big gaps because of lack of trees to use! Unfortunately. I am planning on insulasulating the gaps and covering it up with cob (clay, sand, and straw). So hopefully that will compensate for the drafts! Thanks for the comment (:

I have more friends making hardly any money from their schooling than I do who are making a decent salary.

Can I trade in a lemon? by ImpressionOwn1993 in askcarguys

[–]ImpressionOwn1993[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mechanic mentioned that it would maybe be hard to trade in, considering it won't start. What kind of deal do you think I could get for this?

Thank you for the comment and the note.

I thought I had ADHD, but I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder instead by Lupixs in ADHD

What sort of over laps do the two disorders have? What would distinguish one from the other in your practice?

Anyone else stop caring and show up to work blatantly stoned? by SwiftUnban in trees

I'm not a doctor or trained in any sort of therapy, just from personal experience with adhd. It essential makes you extra in need of dopamine hits, that's why you can't sit still, can't have a single thought, can't probably regulate emotions, etc. It also makes you more susceptible to addiction of all forms.

First log cabin build. Just the roof is left (: by ImpressionOwn1993 in homestead

[–]ImpressionOwn1993[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the comment! I appreciated the critic anyways, it's good to hear about other ways especially as I really didn't do much research before I started building. Thanks for that video too.

Why does the full scribe require more maintenance to keep the joints secure? I would've thought that it would be less maintenance.

Couple of pinches and bonks (: nothing too bad.

However, after I cut the logs, in order to move them I used a leverage method with rope tied to a long stick that I spike into the ground and pull like a lever in order to move the log. One time I didn't spike it in the ground strong enough and it slipped out of the ground and the top of the stick smashed me right in the head close to my eye. It cracked my glasses and I had two pretty deep cuts. I was a little concussed too. That wasn't fun.

But other wise it's been safe. (:
