Sarge,

Have you looked at the Satterwhite (Longview) plans? Are you really bent on cedar? I have plans and my better half has done countless hours of research on log homes. We found that the standing dead spruce out of Colorado is probably the best value. And if you can live with seconds (minor cracks and blemishes) you can save a lot of money. Also, if you know and individual that has his own mill to cut the logs you probably will save considerably. We found one in E. Texas and if the economy hadn't tanked, we probably would have a cabin started by now.
