Log Woodworking Tools
The log woodworking tools needed for a hewn log cabin are not extremely expensive. Here are the ones you may want to have around:
- Hatchet
- Mallet
- Broad Axe
- Chisel
- Corner Chisel
- Draw Knife
- Froe
- Slick
- Adze
- Chalkline
- Chainsaw
- Square
- Jack Plane
- Auger with Brace
- Level
- Prybar
Most all of these log cabin tools can be purchased on ebay for a decent price
if you will not be anxious. One week a broad axe with a curved handle
will sell for around $100.00. Then two weeks later a similar axe
fetches near $50.00. I have seen them show up occasionally at local
auctions but never when I needed them! I try to avoid antique shops and
dealers as they have these items marked up too high hoping to catch a
collector. Read
here how I have gotten many free log woodworking tools.
