Trustin Timber | EP12: Overnight Camp, Cook & Cabin Build // Posts Go Up! @TrustinTimber | Uploaded June 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
#CabinBuild, #LogCabin, #CabinInTheWoods
In this video, my wife Caitlin and I start putting up our cabin posts. The cabin will be a post and beam style made with 100% self-harvest logs.
Common Questions:
Q: Aren't your foundation posts going to rot?
A: This is a temporary building platform to dry-fit the cabin. It will be dismantled and moved.
Q: Why are you burning the logs?
A: The logs leak sticky sap and therefore collect dirt and rocks that will dull my tools. Some of the fresh logs have soft sap that also gets on my hands, clothes and tools. I'm burning it off now so that
the logs are more enjoyable to work with and will also be much easier to sand before I stain them. Sappy logs clog up the sandpaper.
To see some of the cabin build processes up to this point check out these videos.

The Mission of this channel is to;
Learn from those that I can.
Teach those I can.
And to inspire others to build with their own hands and enjoy the process.
It’s going to be a jam-packed summer of cabin building and we have some other exciting news to share with you soon so stay tuned. If you are also interested in more of our lifestyle my wife also has a YouTube channel called @The Timber Life
Be nice to people, be nice tour earth.
See you next Timber Tuesday.
