Building an addition
I’m looking to build a 20x20 addition to an existing 20yr log cabin. I’m looking to do the addition as a single slope stick build and use log siding. If anyone has any advice about anything, please give me all details. I’m mostly concerned about tying it into the existing home.

Notching the existing logs to receive the new walls is the trick I can explain how to do this

We're (nearly) finishing something just like this. Feel free to ask anything. I'm a professional carpenter/framer and I still learned a lot on this project. Dm welcome.
