Welcome !
Building a log home is an adventure quite unlike building a conventional "stick-built" house. There are many things that require a different mindset and skill-set from the people constructing the home. All too often a builder takes on such a project not knowing that his team's experience with frame construction will be inadequate.
Although
you will most likely use a general contractor, as the owner, you are the
ultimate decision maker when it comes to the details of erecting your new log
home.
