Hand Peeled Log

A workman in the yard at Lake Country hand peeling a heavy log with the tradition draw knife method. Hand Peeling removes the outer bark to reveal the true beauty of the log. This hand work also leaves the traditional larger stump end of the log and the narrower top. Only about 10% of the log is discarded in the handcrafted log home construction process, verses up to 50% waste when a milled log home is made. Cowboy Log Homes
