Very cool. How long should you let the logs sit to dry before building? About a year?

Not to discount their work but that seemed rather easy. Kind of gets me thinking too. I'd love to have a project like this.

Ideally, yes, many a trappers cabin was made with fresh cut logs though

I agree with you. I was really against the tarp roof, and the lack of foundation (or using treated wood). He said the foundation would probably last 25-50 years, but would you really want to have and try to replace the rotten logs at the bottom of the structure? And I chuckled when he said the tarps would last 5-10 years. The top window opening inwards seemed really odd given the confined area.
