How are the logs joined together in a Lincoln Log Int. home?
A 1″ polyurethane backer rod fits into a pre-cut V-groove on the top and bottom between the logs. On the butt end joints, two strips of polyurethane gasket material and two 1 inch diameter hardwood dowels (keeps the ends from moving) are incorporated to insure a complete seal against air, light and water. Nine inch engineered “LogHog” fasteners are used every 16″ on center to screw the logs together. 9.
