Proceedings:

1. Logs need to be placed from the ends. First you need to outline a log, which has a minimum diameter at the top of the cut. Further, this log will become a template, it should be placed on it and the other logs. It is necessary to act very accurately, without error, otherwise the corners of the arbor will shift and it will not be sealed.
2. The logs need to be treated with four karts. One Kant must pass through the entire workpiece and heads outward. This kant is equal to two log diameters. And the rest of the Kants may be slightly thicker than the diameter of the wood.
3. Now there came a series of slices. The square visually should be divided into eight parts, one side can consist of four parts, and the second is from six parts. Next, you need to cut out the grooves in the logs.
4. Try to mount the logs separately if everything happened, the same thing to do with them directly on the foundation.

2. For the removal of the lower log, the skeleton is from half the diameter of the upper log, and vice versa.
3. First place the bowl, then the longitudinal groove.
4. In order to make the markup of the groove, which is located at the bottom, you need to put the work on the log on top. At the same time, the gap between the logs is formed and before making markup, you need to dilute the isge of the features to the distance of this gap, and I have twisted two more centimeters. After cutting down the groove, you need to put a log on a log cabin, determine the outline contours, for this you need to return the point of the feature to its original position.
5. When all the logs are ready, they need to put them on each other and make wood processing, where you need to put the wedges and the seal in the form of moss or pacles.
