Man what I would give to be working with my brother, I think that is awesome in itself.  Your shop would make a great house too.

Nice work places.

I was wondering, how are the end caps of the logs secured in place? Just grout alone?

Sorry for not getting back sooner. 

The main is a 12 in 12 with the domers and over hangs 6 in 12. Something that has aways intrigued me is that a 5 in 12 pitch is about half the angle of a 12 in12 pitch roof. Common scene would say that a 6 in 12 is half the angle of a 12 in 12 but it's not.

Anyone care to explain why or coment?

6/12 is 22.5 degrees; 12/12 is 45 degrees.

Better 'splain why it's not..

Did you use trig?

i get 26.57 dregs for 6 in 12

and get 22.62 for 5 in 12

if you got the old stile 16x24 framing squares its on the tables . but most Carpenters got the speed square now.

 

for thouse who hate math here's a link
