Traditional Finnish Log House - Making a Dovetail Notch
Author: Jarmo Hiltunen
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 81
Book Description
Durable, esthetically pleasing, and environmentally friendly. These are just some of the features of a handcrafted Northern European log house. And the dovetail is one of the oldest traditional corner notch types used in their construction--even today, builders recommend this fairly easy technique for long-lasting and fully scribed log houses. This is the second book in the Traditional Finnish Log House series. Inside you'll find detailed instructions on how to make the dovetail notch when building a log home's shell, one log at a time. Whether you're are an experienced builder or a novice to the craft of log building, this book is a great way to get started on your own project. The dovetail notch type is an ancient Scandinavian log house building method developed over centuries by masters of the craft. The only changes have been the preferred tools used--like chainsaws and log scribes--primarily adopted for ease of use and speed. As you'll soon see, it's most important to always make sure each log is properly placed before drawing cut lines. But the real secret of the building technique described in this book is its efficiency--each phase has to be done only once avoiding unnecessary steps. But don't be deceived by this fact, there's still plenty of challenge left when building a traditional wooden house using a dovetail notch.
