Скачать или смотреть Hidden Rot Destroyed the Log Wall — Here’s How I Fixed Everything

En film från mitt jobb som timmerman, reparation av rötskada på ett par väggar i en timrad ladugård.
Från början till slut.

Repairing rot in a log cabin wall is one of the most challenging tasks in traditional timber restoration. In this video, I show the full process of identifying severe rot damage, removing compromised logs, crafting new timber replacements, and rebuilding the wall using Scandinavian log building techniques that I’ve worked with since 2003.

This restoration takes place in the mountains of Sweden, where old cabins face harsh weather, moisture, and decades of wear. Whether you’re restoring a historic log home, learning traditional joinery, or just curious about how real timber craftsmanship works, this step-by-step rebuild will guide you through every part of the process.

🔨 What you’ll see in this video:
• How to inspect and identify hidden rot in log walls
• Removing damaged timber safely
• Shaping and fitting new logs by hand
• Using traditional Scandinavian timber tools
• Rebuilding the wall with tight, durable joints
• Before & after transformation

🌲 Why this repair matters

Rot damage spreads fast — but with the right techniques, even badly compromised cabins can be brought back to life. This repair not only saves the structure, it preserves a piece of Nordic craftsmanship.
