This manual details the working procedures and carpentry techniques for building a log house. The construction of a log house begins with the purchase, storage and preparatory work for timber harvesting, after which logs are cut and the log house is erected. Carpentry tools play an important role in the work, which differ in many respects from ordinary ones. New tools can also be used for carpentry if they provide additional benefits. This book can be used as a guide to self-construction and as a text for initial vocational training. This book is the sixth in the Builder's Handbook series. The series includes books telling about various stages and options for building a low-rise building.
