how long do the logs have to dry before you can seal them?

We prefer to use either standing dead logs, or logs that have been cut for about 3 years. Your particular area my be different, but for our area we use logs with moisture at 12% or less.

Hey there, looking to source pillars like this for a client project. Were they local to you? Did you just source from a logger? Any chance you should share your source?

Tree trunk sealant - What do you use to seal the tree trunks. And do you have a metal support in the middle of them? Thanks for your help.

Do you have any idea how long the tree is last when used as a porch column?

Depends on your climate and how well you keep it protected from sun and moisture. With regards to the steel, you should have an engineer specify your connections and use of steel.

Hello,

Thank you for your interest. I believe his supplier was out of Montana and they may have sources
out of Canada. They are Cedar. Cedar gives you the best "Character"
Flared bottoms.

Have a great day!!

Could we make a pergola using tree trunks as posts?

wrong colors and style but sort of the tree idea thing
ACI Coatings added this to Log Homes
The combination of the tree root columns, the double beam rafters and the red stain leaves this log home looking remarkable.

fluted cyprus for primary structural support.
