Posted June 5, 2014 Why not a log wall, so we can make houses like this: No nails, just logs and dirt. probably 20 logs and 1-5 dirts per wall. Maybe needs a new item: notched log, made from a log and a hatchet, a log with a deep interlocking dent in each extreme. maybe a new roof type too, made from beams and dirtor we can use the already existent ones. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 6, 2014 love the idea but the 20 logs makes me cringe I'd go 10 logs and 10 clay - as most of those kinds of houses were a form of clay between them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 7, 2014 I like the idea of more different types of houses etc it be cool to live inside a log cabin +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 7, 2014 +1 Although i think 20 logs is way too much. Maybe 5 logs per wall (you could make a LOT of planks out of those). Otherwise all trees in the area will be gone in no time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 7, 2014 Or...an Icelandic turf house like this one? Basicly both wood and stone but with dirt/grass as rooftop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 7, 2014 That style of housing still used? At least the original style, I've seen more modern schemes along the same lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 7, 2014 That style of housing still used? At least the original style, I've seen more modern schemes along the same lines. A far from what I know they're comfortable during winters because of the well-kept warmth, costs very little and very eco-friendly.
