So what's with this releasing episodes not in chronological order? I almost feel like I should wait until you've finished the cabin, and then watch the videos from start to finish. I've built a few cabins in my time, and I find it a bit odd that you're not doing any kind of notching to hold the corners together. In my forty plus years of experience as a carpenter, woodscrews have no sheering strength. It'll be interesting to see if it all holds together once the roof is on, and a few years have passed as the logs shrink and settle, that some of the screws don't start snapping. Cheers. 👋🇨🇦
@@andyfunke9484 Yes, thanks, the problem is my channel is new and the TH-cam algorithm doesn't push all my videos like it should. Episode 1 only had 300 views after the re-upload over 4000. That's why I have to repost the videos with weak views. As for your question about the screws. These are hybrid screws (spike and screw). The screw goes into the lowest log and the log above can still slip. It slides like the spikes so it doesn't splinter. Many people use spikes and then the logs can split when they dry. It will be an air bnb to rent, not a permanent living cabin. I think when the roof is installed everything will be more stable.
I like this.
Nice build. Those have to be the most perfect logs I've ever seen!!! Subscribed

@@andyfunke9484 I don't know if you've seen it, there are 8 episodes at the moment.
I try to upload an episode every Saturday.
Thanks for your comment
