All the Lumber is Cut!

Blane and Blane, Jr. finished cutting the last log Monday evening. Yeah! They are now cleaning up the mess. We will have plenty of fire wood for our hot dog roasts.

                                           Here is the good stuff.

We came up short on the timbers and had to order some more from a sawmill.  We didn't order enough logs, but now we know that we can only get 2 and sometimes 3 rafters or floor joist out of one log.

                                         These are some of our 12 ft.,  2 x 4's.

Now the job for Saturday will be to make some more of the solution that we treated the logs with and treat all the lumber.

Then we wait for the logs to be graded so that we know which logs can be used as support logs and which ones will have to be wall logs. After the grading, we can start putting the walls up, then it will start looking like a real house.

                                           Happy Days!
