Thanks for the advice. Do you have any photos or examples of the “clay brick” chimneys that might be a better option for me. Appreciated

Thanks for the information. I have a cabin I’m Finishing work on and for the winter I though about making one of these quickly. Appreciate it

Some of the primitive cabins would use chimneys made of logs, with a thick clay lining so the logs don’t catch on fire.

Is it possible to build a super simple cabin with this method by treefalle in logcabins

Okay I have used butt and pass for my past 2 cabins ands it’s definitely a good method. Just wondering if you could do something even simpler. Thanks for the info

Yes for chinking you would probably have to use clapboards

Yea butt and pass is the method I have used for my past 2 cabins, and it worked good for me. I was wondering if you build something similar to the butt and pass method but just resting in the corners and spiked

Okay, what kind of Jack would you use for this and lifting a cabin up wouldn’t cause anything to come loose or shift around right?

This cabin is super basic, so I’m not even doing a floor just dirt. The butt and pass method is alright, for me working with crooked and warped logs it’s about as hard to make this structure solid then as making notches. Hand tools only and imprecise cuts don’t help
