Cedar Log Cabin?
Well I'll try this! We're looking at building a cabin supplied by International Homes of Cedar. They apparently have built several here in the Valley and up in Talkeetna. Anyone here own one? They are built with laminated cedar boards that are laminated into a "log" that is then milled with tongue and grooves and stacked. Most interestingly, a big part of their building system is gluing the logs together with marine grade 5200 adhesive. They have testimonials from folks who have had their homes survive earthquakes, trees and hurricanes. Pretty impressive, but I'm pretty skeptical still of a home that's "Glued" together.

Well I’ve used the 5200 marine adhesive to glue my boat transom on and that held enough to get home. 15 ft boat with a 50 hp Yamaha. Should have no problem holding logs together
@Jered Gebel this sounds like such an interesting idea. Never heard about a 'glued house' before. Would Cedar help keep mold down I wonder?
