Mountain
Logworks is a small company specializing in
custom handcrafted camps,
cabins and log dream homes. Our professional craftsmen
specialize in the full-scribe
log construction of wall, floor and roof systems. We
offer a variety of notches: the compression-fit housed
round notch, saddle notch, square notch and the dovetail.
Mortise and tenon joinery is available as well. Chinked
style walls are also an option. For illustrations
of these notches and wall choices click on Notches
and Wallstyles.
Our
building material of choice is eastern white pine, available
in a variety of sizes, up to 28" in diameter. (Other
species are available upon request.) Logs are used in their
natural form - full length throughout the house, displaying
their natural taper. Each log is hand
selected from native stands. They are then hand-peeled at
the yard and hewn by our craftsmen. Each log is individually
placed on the log shell and its top and bottom contours
are scribed to create a tight fit with the adjoining logs.
All
of our log shells are crafted here in the Northeast Kingdom
of Vermont. Upon completion, they are disassembled and
transported to your site for final assembly.
From the selection of trees in the northern forests to the raising of
your log home, owner and log craftsman Brant L. Schreiber will
personally oversee each aspect of your project.
Each
house we build, regardless of size, is crafted to meet
the individual needs of our customers. By keeping the number
of houses we build to a minimum, we are able to create
handcrafted log masterpieces that will reflect the dreams
of our clients for centuries to come. |
