Every log you see was felled and bucked with an ax, with a few back cuts using a one-man hand saw. Logs were debarked with a barking sud or draw knife. Most of the assembly on the original site was done with a brace and bit and sledge hammer. I chose this pioneer method the first time around. On the rebuild, I'm running power tools with a generator. The use of modern tools has sped up the process considerably. I even have a shop fan to move hot air around the new site.
Thanks for watching, and, as always, keep Doing the Stuff of Self-Reliance.
