Welcome to our channel! This Log Cabin Project is a dream that we have had for several years that we finally decided to make a reality. Our goal is to build a tiny log cabin from scratch using as much material from our land as possible. We are building it entirely using hand tools (no chainsaw!). This cabin will function fully off-grid and will be only accessible by foot. Subscribe to follow our journey!
We are learning a lot as we are doing (as always), so don't hesitate if you have any questions, it will be a pleasure to share tips and tricks, if possible.

In this episode, we add 2 more hinges to our door and finally install a latch to keep the door closed, a welcomed upgrade after using a bungee cord for the past 2 months. We then carry up a large slab of live-edge ash. We had to cut it in 2 pieces to be able to carry it to the cabin. We then cut the slabs to shape, plane their top surfaces, then build the structure to support them. We finish the install by coating them with butcher block oil. Lastly, we tackled a long-overdue task of cleaning our chimney. There was a dangerous amount of creosote build-up from burning lots of softwood in November and December.
