Inventory & the process of hand-hewing

|
 |
Our large lumber inventory allows us the
advantage of air drying versus kiln drying. |

The hewers hard at work
|

Every hewer has his own pattern
|
Our hand hewing is not only an art, but is also beneficial to
the drying process.

Logs are milled and bulk material is removed for
the dovetails.

Reed lends a hand.
|

All the bits and pieces have to be put together to
make logs into a home.
|

Axes and drawknives are still everyday tools in
handcrafting the logs
|

Mortise and tenon joints are cut by hand.
|

Bob Williams (age 90) reminds us that there
is always work to be done.
|

Every dovetail is fitted and every corner is
preassembled in our log yard to ensure a quality fit.
