3 DVD discs in a Box Set with 5 hours of video instruction. How to build handcrafted, scribe-fit log home walls with Robert W. Chambers and the Staff of Natural Log Homes.

These videos will show you chainsaw and hand-tool techniques you'll need for building your handcrafted log home shell. Animations are used to teach log building fundamentals. Saddle notches and long-grooves (laterals) are scribed and cut. State of the art techniques for doing it yourself -- Building your own log home. 

"It's like having Robert as your private teacher!"

Robert teaches handcrafted methods using naturally-shaped logs that are fitted tightly to each other without gaps and without chinking. These DVDs are not about milled, factory-made, manufactured log kits. Instead, Chambers shows how to use a scriber to trace the contours of one log onto the other.
