   Log Profiles

At Honest Abe Log Homes, we are proud of the log systems we have developed. Years of manufacturing experience have given us the "know how" that has led to the superior products we offer today. Attention to the little things like proper joinery, quality control, corner notches, and tight sealing methods have made our time-tested systems superior to any in the industry. All of our logs are kiln dried for stability, every log is graded and inspected to our high standards, and each log is stamped with our seal of approval before it goes into someone’s home.

Genesis Profile

Genesis LogGenesis Log System

The Genesis log is a big 6"x12" log that gives you that Appalachian feel but with no interior chinking. The exterior surface of the log is rough textured and has a groove at one edge that can be finished with chinking, or without it as desired. The interior surface is smooth and enhances the massive feeling so characteristic in this log style. Dovetail corners complement the look and ensure a tight fit. The logs are locked together with a large single tongue and groove, and a foam gasket and wood-binding sealer are applied between each course before fastening.

 

D-Log Profile

Milled-D LogD-Log System

Our 8"x8" Milled-D log is planed smooth on all sides for a beautiful appearance. This log system also features an inserted corner notch and a milled drip edge. These time-tested methods of joinery ensure an air-tight seal that keeps the outside elements outside. The logs are locked together with a large single tongue and groove, and a foam gasket and wood-binding sealer are applied between each course before fastening.

 

Original Log ProfileOriginal Chinked LogOriginal Chinked Log System

Nothing offers the true feeling of rustic log home living better than our Original chinked log system. This 6"x10" log features a rough-textured exterior surface, a smooth interior surface, and the traditional look of chinked log joint. This log system is constructed with a solid spline between each log course, and chinking material is applied on both the interior and exterior sides of the wall. Dovetail corners complement the look and ensure a tight fit. This log may also be hand hewn for the authentic look of a "real" log cabin. The logs are sealed with a large single tongue and groove and fastened together.

 

Round Log ProfileInterlocking Round Log8" Round Log System

We are so proud of the corner design in this log system, we included it in the name. Better than a traditional saddle notch, the interlocking corners in the 8"x8" round log offer a design unsurpassed in strength and "sealability." The logs are locked together with a large single tongue and groove, and a foam gasket and wood-binding sealer are applied between each course before the logs are fastened together with lag screws. The full round log is planed smooth on all sides, giving that true "western" feel to any design.
