What is Full-Scribe?

Full Scribe Style HomeFull-Scribe log joinery is the oldest form of log home construction. Its techniques are centuries old and have remained virtually unchanged. Today, however, we use modern cutting and shaping tools like chainsaws and planers to achieve the same results. Full-Scribe building techniques require many years of apprenticeship before one can truly master its intricacies. On average, our craftsmen have been practicing the trade for fifteen years or more. In addition, our logsmiths are proficient in Old World mortise and tenon joinery, examples of which can be seen in our second floor and roof systems, and also in our Full Scribe and "Fusion" style log work.

All of our log joinery is performed in accordance to The Log Building Standards developed by The International Log Builders' Association.

Dear Robert
 
Our log home started out as a dream last year and now is nearing completion. Its beauty and workmanship have definitely exceeded our expectations. I do want to commend and thank your craftsmen for their excellent workmanship not only in the construction but in the re-assembly in Red River, New Mexico.
