    Attach 14 courses of Logs to the Right Front
(in the background you can see logs cut for the Gable Left Side)
         
         
       
         
 
Another course - on the front first - cut to line up with the Side
  
         
       
         
    The Side Log overlaps the front log, and is longer by the size of a Nub.
         
       
         
 
This is a 3/8" Nub, used to measure the overlap

The next course goes on the Side first
  
         
       
         
    ... then the front log is measured with a Nub for the overlap
         
       
         
 
Detail of the Nub measuring the front's log
  
         
       
         
    Back and forth to the top of the Front, measure each overlap with a Nub
         
       
         
 
The 45degree cut lines up with the Attic Endwall
  
         
 
     
         
    Here, a set of Logs were pre-cut at 45degrees using the Miter Box
         
       
         
 
Mark and cut each piece all the way to the top
