Build Your Own Log Furniture
Over the last couple of months, I’ve showcased several pieces of log furnitures by various companies on here. But maybe you consider yourself a craftsman (or you’d like to learn to become one) and you’d like to learn how to build your own log furniture. I found this book that covers exactly that topic. Overall, the reviews at Amazon are positive:
“For a complete woodworking novice such as myself, this one and only manual on building your own log furniture has proven to be worth its weight in gold. The authors walk you through all stages of log furniture construction–from acquiring the necessary tools, wood, etc., to completing numerous projects, including the ultimate prize: a beautiful log bed.”
“There are few reference works available in this category. Fortunately, this one is a useful, helpful, and clear guide to the art of making log furniture.”
“I found this book to be very useful in building my first piece of log furniture. In fact my first project is a log bed (under construction at this time). There are few resources available that teach you how to build log furniture. Dan and Les have written a no nonsense book with detailed information on wood, tools, finishes and etc.”
At $33, the book isn’t exactly cheap, but it does sound like it has a lot of pictures and diagrams:
