I love watching your cabin unfold even though this was posted a year ago. I'm watching all of your videos start to finish and am utterly impressed. Thank you to you and your wife.

@mr.lumberjakn3055 7 лет назад
My Self Reliance you need a proper set of log tools Sir. A draw knife, hewing axe, and there's a tool, I can't remember the name of it but it is as long as an ice scraper for your driveway and thick like an axe and is meant specifically for peeling logs. The weight helps keep it moving and it glides through the cambium layer. There are also several different kinds of hewing axes so make sure and do some research, some are meant to do notching and some are meant to hew a full length log into square timber........beauty work though, good on ya.

Looks like you have your work cut out for sure! Along with your cart for saving your back I would recommend a set of grapple tongs so you can pick up one end of a log and drag it or position it without using both hands and back which is a killer. I also picked up a wrist brace from a physio rehab supply store so I could use a flat spade to peel the logs and protect my wrist from the constant bashing. I look forward to seeing more. Good luck and watch out for that beaver he may grab your logs for his dam..
