Hewn Log Cabin

 |
This
log cabin project is our most personal and detailed one to date.
Jonas and Rachel
designed and built this cabin as an addition to our family home in
Stuarts Draft. |
| Many
evenings and weekends were spent selecting logs, preparing them,
notching the corners and finally trimming out the inside. |
 |
|
|
Almost everything in this cabin is made with reclaimed wood.
The hand hewn Oak
logs were salvaged from an old barn located here in the Shenandoah
Valley, the stone chimney and fireplace were built with reclaimed
stone from a demolition project in Harrisonburg and the siding on the
gable ends is original weathered American Chestnut siding.

|
Nothing beats a roaring fire on a cold winter evening. |
 |
|
|
|
| The
interior of this log cabin has so many nice details.
The flooring is
our Antique Barn-board Oak, the
ceiling joist are hand hewn 6x6's and the stair stringers are old barn
timbers as well.
The stair treads
were made from original barn planks taken from a pre Civil War barn in
Churchville, VA.
Any barns that
made it through the war are truly a rare find here in the valley. |
 |
 |
This
Wormy Chestnut door was hand crafted by Jonas. These wide plank
Chestnut boards are a rare treasure, but we do still have some
available for custom projects. |
|
Upstairs in the cabin we have Wormy Chestnut planks that serve as both
flooring for upstairs and ceiling for downstairs.
These planks are
about 1-1/2" in thickness which gives lots of strength to bridge the
hand hewn joist that are on 2' centers. |

 |
Ahhh....
Finally
finished!
Now it's time
to enjoy the fruits of many hours of tedious but enjoyable work.
