Description
Owner Built House
B. Allan Mackie’s most recent book.
Allan Mackie believes – and demonstrates in this book – that attitude is at least as important as carpentry skills.
Given a will to learn and a desire to make something of one’s own, the average person is more than capable of building a log house that will serve an individual, couple, or family for years to come.
- Hundreds of photographs and detailed drawings take the reader step by step through the log home building process: selecting the land; purchasing and preparing the logs, and all the other steps involved.
As a unique feature of the book, the author takes us through his current log home building project on a 100 acre wilderness site. The reader experiences the entire process – from buying the land right up to moving in and spending that first winter. bb157
