Every Wilderness Log and Timber Company log is precision-sawn to
an exact specification to ensure a tight fit and proper log
alignment. This precision fit, combined with our full or insulated
log wall assembly systems, ensures against air and moisture
infiltration.
Corner construction helps prevent separation and air
infiltration in full log homes. It's less of a structural factor in
insulated log walls, but certainly an important design element.
Certain log shapes and corners are "married." For example, a round
log and a square log have a certain style of meeting at the corner,
dictating certain corner styles that are efficient and practical.
The following profiles should get your wheels turning, and our
price list has additional information on the log sizes and
combinations available.

FULL LOG PROFILES
|
|
TRADITIONAL FULL LOG WITH BUTT AND PASS
CORNERS
This is the classic full round log, cut flat on top and bottom
for easy stacking. They create a traditional, Early American log
home look. Corners feature a butt and pass intersection.
|
 |
D-LOG WITH BUTT AND PASS CORNERS
This profile features a flat interior and round exterior, giving
it its distinctive shape. Corners feature a butt and pass
intersection.
|
 |
SWEDISH COPE WITH SADDLE NOTCH CORNERS
Swedish Cope round logs give this profile option a precision-cut
appearance. A saddle notch corner features logs that are half-level
apart, thus overlapping rather than butting into one another at the
corners.

butt and pass corners, they create a truly authentic look harking
back to old-time log construction.

apart, thus overlapping rather than butting into one another at the
corner intersections. Combined with our InSul-R log system, it's
beautiful and smart.

This exciting option pairs Swedish Cope round logs with
