A Cabin in the Woods, Roof, Windows | Building an Off Grid Log Cabin Alone in the Wilderness, Ep22
source
It's really starting to feel like home now that the roof is watertight, the front windows are in and the front gable is closed in. After completing the roof boards and membrane on the east side of the log cabin, I install diagonal boards to the gable end over the front porch. I'm not convinced that this is the final look for the gables but I'll wait until I finish the log features holding up the porch overhang before making that decision. For efficiency, I am spending more time on this cabin sealing air gaps and insulating the walls and roof - 6" in the gables and 10" on the roof. ..............
