Log Home Pictures from 2002, Part 2 of 3

The porch log structure is all stained. 5/8/02

This is the beginning of the chinking project. Large spaces, such as the triangle up against the ridgepole, were first filled with styrofoam. Smaller cracks were filled with fiberglass insulation. Then galvanized nails were driven in to give the mortar something to hang on to. Finally, brick mortar was troweled over the nails and insulation. 5/14/02

Here you can see the mortar in the cracks at the top, with one crack insulated and nailed and ready for mortar. You can see that I am using the same old scaffolding again. 6/26/02

This is the back wall taken from the high rock. In this picture you can see anchor hooks on the Grid B purlin. You can also see the loft floor through the window and you can even see out a front window down to the road. 6/26/02

The southeast wall is chinked on the outside. 9/12/02
